The way that we often frame the question of privacy is wrong. Many ask "Do you have anything to hide?" when the question should really be "Do you have anything to show?"
Do you have anything you desperately want to show the government, corporations, random strangers, and your worst enemies?
The answer might sometimes be yes, but truly think how often you're begging for these entities to have such personal data. I'm going to take a bet and say that for most things, the answer will be that you're not. For each of those things you don't desperately want these entities to see, you need to seriously consider your privacy.

👀 I'm seeing reports that r/politics, r/news, and r/television on Reddit are removing links to the 60 minutes segment on CECOT that Bari Weiss decided not to air.

I wish I had #fediverse ( #mastodon #pleroma #akkoma #friendica #hubzilla #iceshrimp #snac #lemmy #mbin #kbin #piefed ) #client , I mean like #ELK #lmst #pl-fe #phanpy #tooty #sengi #pinafore #halcyon . That would allow me to sort my subscription feed & browse sorted feed, to see ONLY relevant posts (on topic updates follow-up's?).
Well, the mastodon feature of "LISTS" tries something similiar by allowing to make a sorted list of people\subscription, sorted by your custom category/topic. But it doesn't include #tags. Each #tag must be browsed separately, individually, manually, and there is no feature of list of tags in mastodon.
Lemmy, mbin, kbin, piefed and other #reddit #forum like #activitypub implementations allow you to have topics-threads, but each thread does not replicate very well across multiple servers/instances. Can't be easely crossposted ( by pinging multiple category-bots). And doesn't replicate & easily-searchable as classic mastodon #tags.
Other things I don't like:
- twitter like reposts. they make you feel you subscribed not to the original "reposter" friend, but to "reposted content" that you never subscribed for. the #f2f p2p architecture of #scuttlebot ( #scuttlebutt) kinda eliminates that, they don't have nor show reposts. you see there only original posts, original content, of friends you follow. Kinda helps to slow down the mind from informational overflow. You can opt out to see posts of friend's friends, if you want more. Tags are also supported there.
- threads consist only of information aggretator url sharing in reddit like clones. Without having OP OC like in bbs|AgoraRoad , they just silo you to clickbait to other web sites.

Reddit is mostly a boring mindless substitute for search engines now but occasionally jems like this happen.

What's wrong with #Reddit these days?
It has become impossible to disagree with someone without them insulting you.
When I think that a part of these people are coming to the #Fediverse through #Lemmy and co... Yikes...
