the average person doesn't use signal they use phones, whatsapp and facebook. You can use the public matrix node and i can use my own node and we can talk. No setup needed. If they care they can buy a hosted matrix service package like this https://element.io/pricing with their own instance run by people who probably know what they are doing.

In before "but it's not free as in no cost". That's why big corps will always fuck over the normies. As it stands, one cannot use the internet without either giving away their privacy or learning a lot about computers and how they work and how to use them.

The majority chose the "i don't care, give me shiny app" route. and they fucked us all over by doing so. There's no right to easy privacy friendly computing. There's only the harsh reality that behind friendly blue and rainbow colored companies sit people that will sell a digital recreation of yourself to anyone who cares to pay and give you a few gigs of free e-mail space and a shiny app for it.

to prove a point here, use a browser without adblocking and other extensions like chrome for a week and look at how they are targeting you. That's what they do to anyone without the willingness to fight it with technical knowledge. And that sadly is the majority.
