Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

Firefox’s Enhanced Tracking Protection (Strict Mode) is known to cause issues on x.com
There were no "issues"; everything was working completely fine. This is a deliberate decision to force people to turn off tracking protection.
I saw a recommendation to use Firefox's container extension https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/containers, but it's disabled in private browsing windows, and I always use private browsing windows.
Stop using twitter for f*cks sake
This is the internet; you can say “fuck” here.
Sir this is a Wendys, go rant somewhere else for fucks sake
i have no idea why people who are concerned about privacy would use anything associated with elon musk.
The Gods forbid I try to literally read something
The real question is why people keep using Twitter despite how impossible it is to even visit the website
because unlike lemmy where its usually about following topics, twitter is about following people, and migration requires said people who theyre following to also migrate
I think it is called the network effect. People are still using Twitter because the messages they want to see are being posted there, and those messages are being posted there because that's where the audience is. So, basically, people are locked in.
This also means that any loss in user count has a double effect, as not only users are lost, but the utility of the service for the remaining users decreases. So, what I'm saying is, if Elon continues this way, at some point there will be a large exodus of users from Twitter, as each loss of users reduces the utility of Twitter further, triggering a chain reaction.
Of course, we can't know when that happens, and since we're both on Lemmy, we've already self-selected as people with little tolerance for enshittification.
