This is a list of Social 'THIEF' Media.
Rightly said.
I can think of a few apps they missed.
These are top 10 by them. We can make our own list. Please tell yours and I'll tell you mine.
I only use stacker news and amethyst.
I only use Stacker news and I'll be on nostr very soon but I've oaid homage to all of them in last 6 months.
Nice. That's interesting. I assumed everyone on stacker came from nostr first. I don't know why I thought that.
Thanks to SN otherwise I would never distinguish.
I was thinking about all the great nostr apps and stacker news off course.
For Nostr apps and SN, we can't include with this list.
Because they are private?
No. But they promise so and people fall a prey.
Funny list!
Are they private anyhow?
No, they are not private but they will promise you.
Some more, some less, but at the end of the day we have no privacy!!!!
Yes, all of these are crap.
lol reddit being the most private kind of shows how far privacy has fallen. They don't even let folks use a VPN.
People who use any of them are blind, deaf and dumb on privacy.
And where is SN on that list? 🤔 How private is SN?? 🤠🥷 @k00b
Of course Reddit is at the top
