Reintroduction post!
Since Bluesky picked up millions of users last year, I have neglected Mastodon somewhat. This year, I'm going to make an effort to post and interact more on here too
I'm Matt, a security reporter based in Europe at WIRED. I'm often covering cybercrime, privacy, surveillance internet freedom, and more.
I'm always interested in hearing what we should be covering and keen to focus more this year on security issues in Europe (and the uncoupling of the continent and the US).
I'm also contactable on Signal using: mattburgess.20 and on email on matt_burgess@wired.com
@mattburgess Good to see you back.
-
@gbargoud@masto.nyc With Friendica, you don't need bridges; it can handle 1:1 communication, and on BS, no one has to agree to this bridge either.
@mattburgess@infosec.exchangeI meant bridging in terms of communicating with both but as I said I don't know details just a keyword to look into.
-
@mkj @clemens I think I agree with mkj here. I think it's hard to overlook Signal being the gold standard and their public position—and leadership—have always been very consistent on what they are building and not building (no desire to integrate AI, etc). They've threatened to leave countries that have proposed to compromise encryption and I don't have any doubt they would take the hard step if required.
@mattburgess @mkj @clemens Hi Matt, welcome (back). Is CWTCH (https://docs.cwtch.im/) a viable alternative for WhatsApp and Signal in your opinion?

@mattburgess more stories about the American surveillance state, and the UK's slide along the same path into fascism enabled by it.
Perhaps a push towards reclassification of social media as publishers, making them liable for what they allow to be posted... Because they have proven they have the ability to control what people see, because they manipulate it already.
Until it is made financially unprofitable for them to promote and push hate, lies and extremism they will continue to every control over govts and people.

@mattburgess Hi
For digital freedom and independence from fascist providers, I recommend giving a look to these collectives and co-ops:
https://riseagainsbig.tech ,
https://meet.coop ,
https://commonscloud.coop ,
https://kollektiv.email ,
@konstellationen ,
@datacoop ,
@ukrudt , -

@gbargoud@masto.nyc Well, Mastodon needs a bridge that both communication participants have to agree on.
Friendica doesn't need that; it uses the Bluesky protocol.
and a few others 😉

@mattburgess @mkj thanks for the input both of you. I am looking for a way to argue for the safety of Signal to an educated, non-techy, skeptic.
Non-profits turn into for-profits as we've seen. But I suppose the argument with open source + end-to-end encryption might be possible to make. -

But I suppose the argument with open source + end-to-end encryption might be possible to make.@clemens We can only know about what the situation is like now. Signal's greatest asset IMO is their broad adoption (network effects are real) and wide trust, and the latter comes in no small part from their openness and firmness to their principles, alongside strong cryptographic privacy guarantees and the ability of third parties to verify those claims. If the Signal Foundation would start backtracking on that, they can and probably would very quickly lose much of that.

@mattburgess Hi Matt. I'm definitely interested in here more about uncoupling from the US. I don't think there can be many more important topics in tech atm.
Great to see more informed voices on here, too. So (re)welcome. 😊

@mattburgess Respect for keeping in mind that not everyone fleeing Twitter ended up at Bluesky. No shade to those that did—different strokes and all that—but the communities across the fediverse are vibrant.

@mattburgess There are also some ways to cross-post to both services, like OpenVibe

Welcome Matt!
Remember on Mastodon there is no algorithm. But users do follow hashtags. If you want your posts to show up in people's feeds, add appropriate hashtags like I have below. Also, boosting helps get posts in the 'trending' feed
Please don't take this as criticism, but as information on how to get your posts read by others!

@SeanPLynch @mattburgess sorting by time is an algorithm... It might be a simple one, but it's one.

@DiogoConstantino @mattburgess
Point taken!
There is also an algorithm that places posts in the trending feed.

NO ALLA GUERRA!
NO AL GOVERNO DELLA GUERRA!
Il governo Meloni decide di avvicinare l'Italia al coinvolgimento diretto a fianco di Israele e Stati Uniti nell'aggressione all'Iran.
L'ennesima guerra imperialista rivendicata a nome di un nuovo colonialismo suprematista e razzista.
Il governo Meloni che, per affinità ideologica e servilismo, non ha il coraggio di prendere una posizione autonoma da Trump e Netanyahu, si piega agli interessi dei due padroni. Come ha fatto sui crimini commessi a Gaza.
-
Ora Meloni vuole lo stabilicum: stabilità o blindatura del potere?
