    Great graphic! The only things I use on this list are reddit and youtube. Trying peertube now. I’m confused about whatsapp and facebook messenger - don’t people just use the texting app that comes with their phone?

      Sms is bad if you care about privacy, but great for voyeurs.

      I frequently send dick pics between two of my phone numbers with fake messages about selling drugs and blowing things up attached, triggering them for a manual review in the government/carrier’s office.

      Signal is very useful for minorities and anyone who’s actually planning a terrorist attack.

        Briar is better for particular dangerous situations, SimpleX is a ‘more confy’ great alternative.

        I don’t send dick pics or plan terrorist attacks, so if voyeurs or Big Gubmint snoop on my texts they’ll be disappointed.
