Fair enough. As for leaving Instagram, I can assure you I would love to. But I unfortunately, I have to choose between privacy and social life. And will rather be spied on than miss out camping with my classmates just because I wasn’t in the Insta chat group where they discussed it. And you might have guessed from me being a Lemmy user that I’m not the popular guy, so nobody will stop using Instagram because of me or text me everything they plan on there on Signal. Also if you think using TikTok is somehow fucking up Meta, I can tell you that you’re the only one getting fucked.
I don’t think any of these are good. I currently have to use instagram, because all my friends use it for chats and chat groups etc. I don’t use instagram for reels, so TikTok is not an alternative for me. And from what I have read about the TikTok app, it spies on you even more than instagram. Also the modded instgram versions usually have an option to block some of Meta’s analytics, and that’s one of the reasons I want to use them.
MyInsta is not just the website. It’s a mod just like the others. https://myinsta.app The developer claims to not obfuscate his additional code, which seems nice, but I didn’t check that.
With today’s BitWarden drama, I planned to use KeePass with SyncThing for like an hour before seeing this :(((
