What kind of federated services would people like to see privacytools.io host? Plume (joinplu.me/)? PeerTube (joinpeertube.org/en/)? Nextcloud (not sure how much storage we would be able to provide though)?

@jonah What do you think about Pleroma? I think the UI more userfriendly compared to Mastodon.

@jonah Let's start with Plume. They only have a few instances and it's a great way for people to share privacy related content (news, guides, tutorials) and PeerTube next. I'm against Nextcloud for now. Maybe a paid model (Crypto) in the future?

I’m so glad this Mastodon instance is taking off, gives me hope for the fediverse :)

Continuous post deletion tool for and : Forget is a service that automatically deletes your old posts that everyone has forgotten about. Shouldn't databases forget too? forget.codl.fr/

@Torrey Hi Torrey, we listed Simplenote in the past but it was replaced with Standard Notes.

"As for Simplenote, as noted, it is not a privacy focused product and does not offer client-side encryption."

Another case: guest found hidden camera by scanning Wi-Fi network. The most troubling part of this is the reaction from Airbnb. They didn’t do anything until it became public and a PR issue. That is just shady.

@Mayana @jonah Sorry to hear that. I wish Riot was more accessible. I'm trying to reach out to the developers of Riot soon, and tell them about this.

@jubes @jonah Thanks, Jubes. Try chat.privacytools.io for the Homeserver URL.

@Mayana @jonah Can you try a different browser for now? Or whitelist privacytools.io in your browser addons, that could block elements from the page.

@pkntl All I saw was an indian travel website. Did you ban them, jonah? Who else was spamming here?

@Mayana @jonah You're the 2nd user that had that error message. A couple of hours ago we had issues and had to restart Matrix.

@jonah @nigelisok I think he got that error "too may requests," while signing up with Riot. Another user complained on Mastodon, too.
