I do really like E2EE but why do I need it in everything?
If I want to talk to someone I would rather them message me on Signal or something that I trust more.

Cool, and I bet it will be just as trustworthy as WhatsApp (i.e. not at all).
Don't trust it at all.
Probably shouldn't? How 'bout definitely shouldn't, ditto for Twitter in general. Give ATproto shit all you want but at least you can move to an independent PDS with it.
Granted ActivityPub is still ideal over ATproto, but both are better than a centralized black box.
Ah, new ways for Kegsbreath to expose his idiocy.
I hope Elon musk gets cancelled(cancer) for this useless nonsensical black box
LOL nope. I'd use anything else. As in NO X.
It was eyerolling back when that dickhead decided to sell blue checkmarks instead of issuing them only to verified celebrities.
I trust it but there is a major misunderstanding of end to end encryption. Some implementations the platform holder does not have a key to decrypt data but it is far from a requirement. All end to end means is there's a blocker preventing the network from seeing what you send not twitter who im assuming has a copy of the key.
