talk to the archive team at their irc channels or take a look at the website. they are sometimes looking for programmers, archivists, donors or a variety of people to help with what they need.

consider running the warrior too. its pretty lightweight.

if that doesnt work out, with that storage space you could also back up a bunch of wikipedia and still spare. they have torrents and dumps of their stuff publicly available.

soooo, honest opinions of discord users here: hows matrix nowadays? what are the other options?

depends on your threat model.

want to hide from advertising and general automated corpo creepness? sure. a reasonably hardened iphone will mostly do the trick.

want to hide from governments, three letter agencies or similar baddies who could simply order apple to give you the info? fuck no. apple unilaterally controls all the code that runs on it, and is itself subject to them.

theres the fact signal uses your phone number too...

that isn't even a comparison. the fact china stopped sale of minerals doesn't put it with equal footing with the terror the us does.

i can see that eventually becoming a thing.

thats a step up from installing spyware on our computers but the real fucking solution would be them having server-side anticheat.

ill also remind you to use the archive team warrior to help them out, if you have spare server space.

it helps them archive content in closed services like reddit, telegram, youtube and such.

furthermore, if you have a ton of spare storage space and free time, consider helping back up their archive.

oleds are much better at almost everything, but it all comes crashing down because of burn in.

having a screen with a guaranteed explicit expiry date is a huge dealbreaker.
