• Tell Matrix -> github.com/element-hq/element-web/issues/15284

• Tell Element Call -> call.element.io (Settings > Feedback)

• Tell SimpleX -> github.com/simplex-chat/simplex-chat/issues/2398

Banned for suggesting violence against children is bad after being harassed by another commenter. I reported them, removed all contributions and withdrew my participation in that community until the issue is resolved.

Lemmy is software anyone can develop and everyone controls, libre software, which makes it very hard for Lemmy to abuse us. To keep it this way, share the ideas of software freedom.

1. Always check its software license: always check it is libre software (video guide here).
2. Also avoid service as a software substitute.
3. Libre software plus decentralisation [federation or peer-to-peer] is ideal.
4. Remember, 'open source' misses the point.
