You don't think anyone is here to learn how to be more private on the Internet? You just expect everyone to already know everything
Look, the point is that I've tried explaining it to friends and family and whoever want (and don't want) to listen.
This post is a rant / wishful thinking as stated as being so, I'm not in the mood of explaining everything again. I've done that in my personal blog, etc.
You're good, no worries. You created a lot of dialog, and most of it is helpful. I'm not complaining.
Thanks. Looking back, maybe I should've at least explained about it a little more. At the time I just wanted to blow off some steam.
I could have worded my response better myself.
I'm looking forward to your next rant, tbh
Well, that's plain ignorant. But you do you.
Rants are rants, that’s fine imo
How so? This is a rant post, I'm not trying to present it differently.
No but that's what the comments are for. I share if the discussion is relevant.
Don't worry mate. I've never heard the term but I knew exactly what you meant. I cleaned a url earlier today for Lemmy.
