@silverpill wasn't matrix or some company behind it caught in some scandal related to Israel?

In any case, fuck them

@silverpill TBF every instance should comply with those basic requirements.

A basic document explaining what data the system collects, where you store it (hosting provider/s, jurisdiction...) should be included in any serious instance

In the EU minors can't accept privacy policies under certain age, and do get restricted between 13-18 or whatever age each country establishes. Also, keep your fkn kids out of social media, god damn it.

And a public feed... I don't see a problem with that

@aral you forgot the part where you burn money to attract more users while killing possible competitors, and then raising your prices to try and make some profit (spoiler: many times you don't). See any startup that offered a killer free tier and when everyone started using it they enshittified it and made it more expensive, while locking you in making it hard (or impossible) to take your data somewhere else.

But guess we'll never learn as a society to not trust companies that lose money on purpose...
