  • I love the Element client for Matrix. I use it with my friends and I have joined a lot of communities on there. It’s Discord-like, but I personally find it much easier to navigate than Discord. It’s free, open source, decentralized, you can self-host if that’s your jam, it’s got some solid security and usability features, call quality is great, and I’ve found it to be very stable and reliable. I’m a little biased because I personally don’t like Discord, I find the UI clunky and unpleasant to use, but I love using Element. If you love Discord, you will find Element familiar, but you may or may not appreciate the differences.






  • I wonder what the full scope of privacy benefits might be here? Obviously, if you log into your account and interact with videos, YouTube will be able to see that–but are you protected from other forms of tracking? If you don’t opt to login, how private is it really? With NewPipe, I know it’s completely private, whereas with Vanced, there were some inevitable privacy holes. I’m really curious where this application falls in all of that. It’d be nice to see a breakdown of what this app does and does not do for one’s privacy.
