Fake Google Critic at LifeHacker - RebelNet

Jake Peterson of LifeHacker wrote an article "Google Is an Even Bigger Privacy Nightmare Than You Think" In which he describes the usual abuse cases like leaking corporate data or abusing children’s data without consent. But he ends the article with, "...

How can we get the party started for a Monero social media site to bond a couple of anonymous bros?

Well maybe Big Tech bashing, but with an educational twist.

This site LifeHacker has half-hearted criticism of Google, but the site itself uses Google analytics and the author uses Gmail. Other than the obvious, we turn it into an educational opportunity to have members of the community tell him all the choices there are to DeGoogle your life.

Who knows? It would be pretty cool if we got a response from the author, and it mentioned Monero.

    RSS replaced my desire for Social Media. Can run it through Thunderbird too 😁

      This should be compatible with RSS, let me ask dev on the URL. Having RSS with XMR tips would be dope. As a content creator, not knowing if anyone reads your RSS is not so fun/motivating

        Just put a xmr address under your articles. Then everyona can send you some if they liked it.

          yeah one could, but what about comments. Also as a regular Nostr user, I have to scroll through daily spam on Bitcoin, so we wanted to give us a home. Server-side comes first, then clients. I’ve seen you get excited about Lemmy with XMR tips, so I don’t see how this is different. Lemmy is mostly socialist on the other instances, and ties your user ID to the moderator’s discretion.
