    It isn’t double standards, it’s patience for a fledgling replacement platform that seeks to free you from being a commodity to be exploited and sold, and lack of patience for the established, exclusively profit hungry platforms that continue to make your experience worse and disrespect you, solely to squeeze a few extra pennies out of you to meet insatiable, unquenchable growth/metastasis expectations.

    It’s the difference between yelling at a professional pickpocket trying to rob you and a kid who is screwing up trying to help you. Resources matter, but more importantly, motivations matter.

      I DO assume to have double standards. Of course they’re not the same for the nonprofit that’s trying to protect my privacy than for the company that’s trying to sell it
