Hi, since Mastodon is no longer acceptable due to the 0.04 percent of instances found to have abusive material, would someone please suggest the alternative social network with 0 percent of these incidents?

Since Google has basically just turned into an advertising engine I’ve used their services less and less.

Gives me a creepy dystopian vibe.

I haven’t used Chrome years, Firefox and Brave browser suit me fine. Since Brave uses the same engine and extensions. What’s the downside of Brave besides ppl not liking the creator? If I stopped using every device and product with an evil genius behind it I’d live in a cave somewhere with no technology at all.

Google is going to continue boiling the frog until everyone using gmail, YT, drive, etc… is paying subscriptions for access to these services. It’s going to be interesting to see how much people are willing to pay to hold on to a gmail account they’ve been using for 20 years. I should buy Alphabet stock now.
