Proton: “We’re consolidating our social media presence due to limited resources and no longer posting on Mastodon. Follow us on Reddit for the latest updates: Reddit - Dive into anything”. This is unexpected, as they had around 50k subscribers on Mastodon, and mirroring posts is super easy. I find that concerning that they stopped posting on open and decentralized platform, but keep posting on Meta and X.

    That’s not what privacy means. Mastodon is incredibly transparent that everything you do publicly is public - the threat model is very clear here.

    Also you can’t compare public tool used for tool interactions to a suite of private tools that is Proton or any other service.

    Finally if all of the data is available public for anyone to access this means it’s not exclusive to bad actors like ad machines, government spies etc.
