Instagram joins the Fediverse
(feddit.it)
A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
But Instagram is part of Meta. It's just as bad as Facebook, Whatsapp or any other Meta product when it comes to privacy and it will never be FOSS, so very much unlike Mastodon
Yup, but people are going to try it because "bro the new Instagram thingy", after that we can tell them "bro did you know you can access the same content without being spied?
If there's a thing I've learnt in the past year is that people don't want to talk about privacy and FOSS software, mainly because the word "privacy" has been so overused in the past 10/15 years that most people think it's bullshit which doesn't exist anymore. It's a preconcept but unfortunately that's how people think and if you want them to consider free software juust tell them it's cool before everything else
