We recently set up a Dutch community on Signaal to share knowledge and ideas regarding IT and privacy. Are you a Dutch speaker and would you like to participate, send a message

    I am dutch and spend many an hour at the intersection of IT and Privacy … but this is the wrong community to advertise a local Signal group.

            Not selfhosting AND privacy.

            From the sidebar of this lemmy:

            “A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.”

            So its about self-hosting with certain qualities (not giving up privacy or lockin). Not about privacy in general.

            Signal isnt selfhosted and does lock you in, albeit with a high reputation to not become evil.

            Better lemmy would be https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy

                You asked why and I gave an explanation where the 27 downvotes came from. So I think there is some agreement within this lemmy about being offtopic.

                If that bothers you too much I suggest focusing on something more productive, as I will do.
