Shamelessly authentic might be what is causing the increasingly success now days.

Doubt that shamelessly corrupt will have the same effect.

Nice to know that, but are the data-centers Carrington Event proof? Always wondered that, but never worked in a data-center.

It is better to NOT delete facebook, but spam your profile with other data and just leave it.

A educated guess would be that the establishments intentionally want to have these monopolies around, so they stand down on the antitrust stuff, and in they would get total control and surveillance. That is how you get these guy like Peter Thiel going to Standford to recommend everyone to start a monopoly as their business model. In reality these guy (groups with low cost access to capital) have no clue how to really run a business they are just heavily subsidize by the establishment.

They however can run their own app or desktop app that can to peer to peer communication. The whole point of self hosting is that we can have data and network sovereignty.

Spun off to another subsidiary seems like the game here!

Not just CIA. Whenever military industrial complex or bankers want a make over, defers litigation risks or just conceal ownership, they just create a subsidiary, spun it off with another name and/or hide the everything behind client attorney privileges.

It also gives the public a memory wipe. Very clever technique indeed.

>No, the vast majority of people use their phones as video viewers, increasingly so after the rise of TikTok. I have family members in their 30s who don't have laptops or TVs, all media is consumed through their phone, and for most kids/teens across the world it is their primary video consumption device.

That is one thing that is more disgusting about using a smart phone now days. When iPhone first came out it is about a music player and phone with extra features to facilitate real life things.

I don't want a freaking small computer in my pocket, and looking at small screens for long period of time is just NOT good for our eyes or postural.

We need to start treat these small devices as something we interact with very occasionally to facilitate real life interaction, not get our face stuck to it.

Not that working on laptop or workstation is much better, but it is better than writing on and viewing a video on small screen.

Thank you for bring this (conduit) up!!! Nothing beats a binary and toml/json/yml file deployment!!!

And it is what great about the matrix.org vs other open source app such as Telegram/Signal/Wire.... The protocol was designed to be open. If you don't like the client, write one, if you don't like the server, write another. Just follow the API specification. Being it is REST it is much easier to decipher than IMAP/SMTP. And port 443 works every where! Even on proxied Internet!!
