Hello everyone,
After a discussion on !fedigrow@lemm.ee ( https://feddit.org/post/6950586 ), a few people interested in privacy decided to reopen !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com as an alternative to !privacy@lemmy.ml .
It’s also nice to have a privacy community on an instance that can be accessed via VPNs.
Feel free to join us there!
We are here, on lemmy.world, redirecting people to the community on DBZer0. That is why I’m concerned
The discussion is about the right home for privacy discussions. I’m happy that privacy@dbzer0 exists, but I am disturbed that we are trying to consolidate all conversations to a community that does not allow all conversations.
LW has blocked !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, how do you think they’ll react if people start asking “which VPN should I use to be anonymous and torrent”?
As I said in another comment, crypto can be discussed in another community.
privacy@dbzer0 is just another community, if you don’t like it there’s 4 more privacy communities to choose from, that’s the magic of the fediverse :)
I’m not trying to consolidate all conversations to privacy@dbzer0, it’s supposed to be a community that solves the problems in the original fedigrow thread. If you don’t believe that they’re problems, then you are more than free to keep using !privacy@lemmy.world, !privacy@lemmy.ca. They’re all great :)
To be honest in order to have a chance to offer a real alternative to !privacy@lemmy.ml, some consolidation is needed, otherwise the .ml community is just going to stay the one main community forever.
@QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz, it seems like you are the last active mod on !privacy@lemmy.ca, would you be okay if I created a meta post there to suggest to lock it and redirect to !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com ?
… Besides ML, I should have specified 😂
There are some cool users over there tho :/ gonna miss them
We’ll make sure they come join us
