  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.

      Let’s see what a “crime” is in two years.

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

        I have a phone. They have a phone. I have their number. They have my number…

        If they don’t have my number there’s a reason.

        Our family group used to have a Signal chat until the older people in the family started having issues remembering their pins.

        They were using MMS before, but the depth of privacy needed for them was mostly dinner plans, so when the Signal chat dried up, I didn’t really care or push back on it. Whatever.

        Sort of? Text and email mostly work.

        Though I’m not the sentimental type and generally just make new friends. I’ve moved to a different state, so it’s not like get-togethers are happening.

  Crimes are for the poor.
