On the other hand, I am ideologically opposed to partnering up with entities like EUnomia, but this being a social media platform the posts are already public and I don’t think anybody should be using such a platform for anything they want to keep private in the first place. Ultimately, you’re trusting server admins for any instance and you have no idea how they use the data collected by the instance.

Does anyone have more details on the partnership? I'm trying to make heads and tails of some of the grievances in the letter and haven't been able to track down much on that particular point.

Very well written response, btw – you captured a lot of things I've been thinking about far better than I could have 😝

Thanks, and I'd be curious to know more about that as well. On the surface, the whole EUnomia thing doesn't sound good, but based on this explanation it sounds like it could be a legitimate use case. So, I'm reserving judgement until we find out a bit more.
