Hey, USA isn't the only capitalist country in the world!

This is a great post for people in public transport to see on your screen

Fair enough. As for leaving Instagram, I can assure you I would love to. But I unfortunately, I have to choose between privacy and social life. And will rather be spied on than miss out camping with my classmates just because I wasn't in the Insta chat group where they discussed it. And you might have guessed from me being a Lemmy user that I'm not the popular guy, so nobody will stop using Instagram because of me or text me everything they plan on there on Signal. Also if you think using TikTok is somehow fucking up Meta, I can tell you that you're the only one getting fucked.

I don't think any of these are good. I currently have to use instagram, because all my friends use it for chats and chat groups etc. I don't use instagram for reels, so TikTok is not an alternative for me. And from what I have read about the TikTok app, it spies on you even more than instagram. Also the modded instgram versions usually have an option to block some of Meta's analytics, and that's one of the reasons I want to use them.

I don't care about those dumb reels so tiktok is not an instagram alternative for me anyways. Also I would never install that thing on my device. There aren't many apps worse than Instagram for privacy, but TikTok is definitely one of them.

That's really weird. I included the link just in case we were talking about different mods both named MyInsta. For me, MyInsta is a normal mod of Instgram's android app, very similar to Instander or Aeroinsta (and probably others, I haven't tried them)

MyInsta is not just the website. It's a mod just like the others. https://myinsta.app The developer claims to not obfuscate his additional code, which seems nice, but I didn't check that.

I appreciate that, thanks.

I think it's absolutely fine for software to show support for something political (e.g. supporting Ukraine against Russia), but I agree with the author that it's not ok to act violently against certain group of users (e.g. wiping Russian PCs). Not because I don't like the idea of Russian PCs getting wiped, knowing majority of them support the agression against Ukraine, but because they can do the same thing. They will wipe our PCs with theirs NPM packages or whatnot, we will malwarize more of our software to attack them and so on. The end result will be that:

• unradicalized Russians will be radicalized because we wiped their PCs (and vice versa)

• we can't use a lot of great software out of fear that it's authors will wipe our PCs (and vice versa)

I see nothing good coming from this type of cyber war for either side of the conflict, and thus I don't think we should support it.

If I understand it correctly it isn't the blog author who got blocked.
