On topic, but a side note…this is how come my trust in privacyguides.com tanked a few weeks ago. They fully support X and actually recommend using it. It’s a bunch of sloppy children running that site.

    Can you link the privacyguides article? I used to rely on them quite a bit, so this would be disappointing to me. The only recommendations i found for social media are mastodon and element https://www.privacyguides.org/en/social-networks/#posting-content

    I am a former member and had the discussion with the guys in charge over this.

    Yeah, I'm pressing X to doubt on this one because the website still only recommends Mastodon and Element, and the page literally talks about why federation and decentralized social media is vital to privacy and anti-censorship. They even have people in the forums talking about twitter frontends so you don't have to actually go to the site. They even purposely try to avoid promoting their accounts on centralized media, the footer of every page only shows Mastodon, Matrix, Peertube, and Bluesky.

    It's privacyguides.ORG btw. Are you thinking of privacytools.io?
