@k4r4b3y @rafael_xmr Just poking in to say I also love SSB’s totally decentralized design. It’s what I would choose for maximum censorship resistance.

That said, the world has basically chosen Federated architectures rather than fully decentralized ones: Matrix, Mastodon, etc.

An important requirement for a social network… is people

@Lokjo @librewolf
Today I completed my daily driver transition to #LibreWolf ; this thread was the catalyst.

I love love LOVE the idea of a simply stripped-down, un-f–ked #FireFox

I love that it was able to use Sync and pull all my saved stuff directly from mozilla.

My only complaint is that LibreWolf demands to be pro-bono libre volunteers; they won’t shut up and take my money!

I still contribute monthly to FF; I pretend it’s to fund upstream development.

@9tr6gyp3 ABP by default does a lot.

But unless you’re using Tor browser bundle… actually yes, you almost certainly *are* fingerprintable individually.

@freedomtools Finally? Like, what took them so long?

Except the need for private transactions is never going away. And there is no better solution anywhere on the horizon.

It’s like a scare campaign against closing the bathroom stall door. GLWT.

@beeng IANAL, but I’m pretty sure that “enabling the use of privacy coins” has not been the charge in any US case.

“Money Laundering” is the charge.

And this is why WE NEED DEXES, and why I do what I can to support my preferred project (Haveno)

@n3m37h @GregorTacTac number of transactions is largely unrelated to number of miners
