And ideally don’t commit crimes. But if you do, don’t post about them on any social media, or anywhere for that matter.

Not saying that a lot of people get arrested for posting their crimes on facebook, instagram, etc but a lot of people get arrested for posting their crimes on facebook, instagram, etc.
I mean - don’t use those things. Delete them. Now.

Crimes are for the poor.

The problem is when your previous posts are suddenly now crimes, and nobody cares about ex post facto any more.

Yeah it didn’t used to be a crime to genocide. Genghis Khan got away with it.

Agreed. And since Meta and Xitter are avowed fascism hubs, delete them anyway.

Sure. I deleted my Facebook >10 years ago, and I haven’t missed it.
Just make sure to solve the real problem though. The police will still eventually find your posts even if you’re using Lemmy or something else relatively niche. Just don’t post crimes.

Have you had any success connecting to old friends outside of mainstream social media? That’s what I’m struggling with.

What about committing crimes facilitated by facebook, instagram, tiktok? Those fraudsters (fake ads for high paying jobs, famous people peddling snake oil, etc) rarely get caught.

All the more reason to delete them.
