You don't wear your life on your sleeve like an open wound, that makes you suspicious.

Fucking extroverts man.

Shallow people are suspicious.

Huh, most people just tell me it's relatable, and that they should probably kick it too. Also, Zuck starting to zuck even more openly seems to have helped with the ones who weren't quite convinced.

You need better people

they kinda did that when i permanently deleted my discord

I feel the same way about private torrent trackers. I'm exposed to so many people and so much media from all over the world I would otherwise never see or talk to. The media is a big deal, too, because it helps me understand and conceptualize how other cultures view things. When that media is never released to Western audiences, that means Western audiences aren't exploring those cultural ideas.

I get exposed to them because I pirate them.

relatable

I so wish I could get all my friends off discord into a private IRC server.

whats ur handle

i can do that if you'd like!

A collection of pixels on a screen must first prove to me that they are human, then that we work out as a couple, then that there is a reason to be connected on social media as well. Longest relationship I ever had, we never connected each other's social media accounts. What would be the point?

computers were better when the commodore change my mind

its much harder to find mobile xmpp clients than it is to go to web.libera.chat (i like using stuff i can use on both pc and mobile because i move around a lot)

almost noboddy else in the whole scjool uses them. only pcb and me

same but snapchat is tiktok

the fith existential plane in the higgs field

14/m/spain dont date me im a minor

i used to, until i found out about linux (i used dos because that way i didnt have to use windows lmao, so when i found a distro that doesnt format ur hdd when install i was like, "screw dos, i have a new daily driver")

getting used to bash instead of batch was kinda hard tho, oh well...now that ive learned to use it im back in my usual "do stuff in terminal" thing instead of using the gui

id use xmpp too if i could find a web based client to use on mobile so that i can also chat when im not home (apps are out bcuz hurr durr parental controls u cant install apps on ur phone...im sooooo waiting until i turn 15 in 2 months...)

I recently started looking into more decentralized instant messengers after being on signal for a year or so. I'm happy with signal but just wanted to look into what else is out there. I really don't get why XMPP gets left in the dust. I see so much praise for matrix, but every public group ive joined is full of spam bots and racists. Simplex is centralized. Even as far as the fediverse goes, I would've assumed everyone here would hype up XMPP since it works similarly with the username@instance.com convention.
