fine, this is spyware, but what do you use to chat and share screen with friends
>>
Discord is too far ahead to not use. It makes no difference because they all become spyware with enough popularity. Too much money and power to not corrupt.

i dont need friends to be the best

Element

>spyware
them knowing what you're doing inside the app isn't the same thing as it being spyware, superbrain. use the web version if you're super paranoid.
>>
>>101582378
They literally sell all your chat logs, voice calls and logs of programs you have open to chinese companies. It's LITERALLY in their TOS, it's not even a secret or anything, superbrain.

Why would you lie about something that's easily verifiable?

You guys are my friends

Unironically IRC. I've been hanging out in the same channels for over 20 years (rip Freenode).
>>
>>101582833
>hurr your data is already with a bunch of companies
1. The chats I'll have with my friends tomorrow have very obviously not been sold a "thousand times already"
2. If my data actually had already been passed around as much as your mom then it would be worthless and that means they have no reason to collect it, and
3. If they really want my allegedly proliferous data then they can buy it from all those companies that totally already have it, and I have no reason to give it away for free.

>just make your own
Was gonna but I have to make money irl. If one of you fags give me Bitcorns I'll finish making this. Extremely decentralized. Servers would be hosted by individuals on their own machine and a central server would only exist to point you to server directory.

I unironically got the idea from all the shitty discord spam threads on this board.

Discord. I also like the in app poker game. It's comfy.

>>101582650
That they are allowing themselves to do this does not mean that they are actually doing it. Proof of sale or gtfo.
>>
>>101582237
Friends?
>>101582327
That's why you don't jump to anything that leaves a dangling hook, you get something open source that you can host yourself. XMPP, Element or whatever.
>>101582714
Also shit, they MITM your messages by design.
>>101582833
>You're not that important
If it can be handled without the active involvement of a human, it doesn't really matter if you're important.
>It's been sold a thousand times
And it will be sold a million times more, up-to-date data is valuable and if you want to deny it to specific people, then that's your prerogative.

Anon, on PC Discord is constantly checking a list of apps that you're running. If it's not a privacy breach, then I ask what is.

What even is the point of using discord? Servers are all dead, hard to get into due to there being established cliches, censorship, and thus, with servers at least, you can't establish any social bonds any more so than you could on a traditional forum, thus making it only slightly better than here. Trying to add specific people on places dedicated to that purpose itself comes with issues, namely that's there's very few places to just drop tags in the first place, they're slow, and things end up falling apart anyway. Element has these problems too, some exacerbated, such as finding specific people to talk to instead of fucking around in a server and hoping someone DMs or you fit in, and some somewhat better like you not being as easily censored, for better and for worse. Honestly, discord seems pretty shitty all things considered, and so do most of its competitors. Some new form of connecting with others online should be made, but it won't, because it's impossible not to make it shit, and that's assuming it will even get made somehow. Fuck this
