Migration recommendation: WireMin
I have been using it for a week and looked into their FAQ page for technology explanation. Here are some pros & cons:
Pros:
1/ 100% Anonymous:
- No need for an email/phone number to create an ID.
- Untraceable IP address.
- End-to-End Encryption (E2EE) for Direct Messages (DMs), Chat rooms, and Blog posts on the Feed.
2/ 100% Censorship resistance:
- Accounts never get suspended (at least that’s what they say in the FAQ).
- Content/Messages can only be deleted by the user itself (chat space too, no one can ban you or remove your message).
- E2EE, no one can decrypt your message, it’s only viewable by you and the recipients.
- Decentralized, no one can access your content because data is only kept on your device.
Cons:
- Not enough users, so the whole network is not stable enough due to its decentralized structure.
- Notifications are only available for DMs, not for Chat space or - - Updates on the following Feed.
- App crashes occur.
- Lacks some small features like polls/GIFs.
- Not open sourced but it is on the dapp store: https://www.alchemy.com/dapps/wiremin
Anyway, I think it could be a good alternative to Twitter/Facebook, due to their privacy issues and monopolistic behaviors. If you are a privacy-focused member, or if you run a sensitive topic community, I think it could be a good choice too.
The only thing I am concerned about is that they are not open source. As for the overall experience, I know they operate on a decentralized structure and personally, I do believe in the safety level of a decentralized network: 100% anonymous, 0 data leaks.
Here is a PrivacyMatters community, https://i.wiremin.com/invite/?g=k49693987788 mainly about TECH and DIGITAL PRIVACY discussion. If you download WireMin for privacy, this can be your first stop.___
why would they tho? Plus, they don’t collect your personal info man, who in the world knows who u r?
