It uses sepia search to search all instances that have opted into being searched.

No they don’t, you can sign up with a VoIP provider.
How do you even exist without a phone number. How do you get cellular data? Does the government not require you to have one? Your employer? What about all the services that require one?
Yes it does
Signal requires a phone number on setup.
It is dumb and annoying and inconvenient but doesn’t affect its use or privacy.
I do agree that SimpleX seems like the best chat option.
it’s also effectively tied to Google services due to the app distribution
It’s been recently added to FDroid.
and push notification channels
You can use NTFY with Molly (which has been on FDroid for some time).
network-level metadata monitoring by anyone with sufficient access/influence at Signal or their data center provider (such as a government who doesn’t like encrypted messaging).
This one is just a straight-up lie. Everything on the server is encrypted and no one has the keys except the participants.
If I go to the TILvids channels, the last 6 months of videos are missing.
The biggest issue with Matrix is that the server collects ALL the metadata. If that’s your server, that’s fine. If thats the default matrix.org server that almost everyone uses, you might as well be using WhatsApp. Same thing goes if any of those people are conversing with people on your server, as they will store all redundant metadata on their server as well.
Signal is easier to use, more private, and faster.
Yeah it is a major work in progress but discoverability is better and you can use Sepia search from within it.
selectively quoting them to suit your own agenda
I didn’t “selectively” quote anything…
so it fits your definition of discrimination
…are you under the impression that I invented the word? I’m not quite that old…
If you’d read on in my comment, I described how literary agents are inundated with thousands of requests
…and that should mean something to me?
There are probably hundreds of minority authors also getting turned away just like me.
Okay but you explicitly said you were rejected because of your skin color…
So, NO. You don’t get to “own” and weaponize someone else’s hardship in that way. Not ever.
That…didn’t happen. Don’t blame me because you argued against yourself…
Privacy is not the same as security
I sincerely doubt they’re bad at it.
Try the app, it’s a little better
It’s both horrible discovery and a limited number of creators.
100%. I created my own instance and set it to auto-follow other instances. There’s like 975 or something and still not really much interesting. Can confirm TILVids also denied my federation request.
I’m doing my part by uploading my own videos 🙂
If I set it the discovery to “trending” the top video is 2 years old 🤷
Can you link me to the specific comment where you’ve acknowledged negative reinforcement?
I’ll go ahead and do it again, just for you: Racial and sexual bias is present in our systems. In politics, in employment, and in every other industry. They’ve been dealt a shit hand via generational poverty, which extends from all the way back in the days of slavery. Marginalized people deserve an upper hand.
DEI attempts to bring balance to that inequality, using racism and discrimination. DEI is a net positive. Discrimination is not inherently negative.
Basketball teams hire white men frequently. So I’m still not sure what point you’re making
The point I’m making is the frequency. Unless you want to claim that companies just never hire black men, at which point I expect to see statistics indicating that all black men are unemployed.
Black basketball players comprise ~70% of the NBA, despite making up ~13% of the US population. That’s a >500% over-representation. Are you planning to file a complaint?
And as far as I’ve seen, people are not assessing the policies themselves
What are you talking about? It’s called DEI. The policy is in the name.
but making assertions around them directly to individual long-term hires
I don’t even know what this means?
White people, so far as I’ve seen, have not had to defend their presence under these policies.
You just did, in your first reply to me:
I’m white, straight, and male…Every agent that I’ve tried to contact, especially ones that match the type of book I’m writing, has been vocal that their focus is on BIPOC, LGBT, and other diverse candidates. I’ve been turned away at every one.
I’m always a little hesitant when the thing involves crypto
There is no crypto.
