    Are you developing your opinions based on vibes or have you actually audited their software yourself (you are free to do so both client and federation server code)?

    If you audited it, have you produced an actual report with metrics and points of reference for your data points?

      Doesn’t take away the fact that not being on F-droid is a huge issue and says a lot about how much they care about privacy and security.

          It’s actually sad, even though I’m a libertarian, tankies and in general marxists could have made a good input into our future. But if they can believe in Telegram being secure because of vibes and not even doing basic research, they’ve already lost.

            Heeey I am also a libertarian, I just tend towards left libertarian. Back to the point of discussion, I find it difficult to ha e a meaningful conversation with the tankies or in general anyone from lemmy.ml . The discussions tend to lack any real data and feel entirely vibe based OR it’s apologist bullshit for Russia.

            Like it’s cool if you like communism and have a philosophy based around why you think it’ll help humanity. I can politely disagree but still listen and discuss. It’s quite another to just be a complete dipshit and say “Ukraine had the invasion coming” (actual quote I’ve seen).
