  What can we do to keep it like this forever?

  Good point. The other important difference is that on Lemmy you can jump to a different server. Once you get banned on Reddit, that’s it.

  Who is downvoting this?!

  Don’t the body scanners allow them to see you in the nude? I thought I read an article about this years ago.

  So much talent locked up in big tech. I wish they would all unionize and also leave and launch open source startups.

  This looks really interesting, but I have so many questions. A few important ones that come to mind immediately:

  1. What is the user agent that’s reported? I’m guessing Firefox, but if there are any indicators that would give it away it’s not Vanilla Firefox or a popular fork, this could make you more unique.
  2. Are the mods publicly identifiable? Another thing that might make you very unique and prone to fingerprinting.

  A core part of being private online is blending in with traffic, so using a niche browser like Zen (depending on the configuration) would make you stand out.

  The product looks good, and the privacy policy is pretty good too. Still, it’d be good to understand all the aspects of how Zen prevents you from standing out in the crowd.

  I don’t know if you or someone else can speak to this. I would jump into their community, but it’s on Discord, so that’s absolutely not happening.

  Fuck off, Fuckerberg.

  I know this is a shitpost, but I need to say it anyways: The USA is not “America”. America is everything west of Europe and east of Asia. All the Americas: north, central, and south.
