I currently use Telegram for my friends and family, but have reluctantly come to the conclusion that the UK Government is either reaching agreement for backdoors with messaging services, or is trying its hardest to.

I'm also on Element/Matrix. Before I try to get my contacts to join me on there, should I be aware of any privacy issues or is that a good place to head?

Separate dongle for internet using a hotspot can help. No system is perfect but Linux phone is an excellent first step

You'd want to be using only Linux apps that weren't recording and reporting everything. Much easier to get in Linux than Apple/android

 

An amazing bit of digital detective work here. Seems like Linux mobile is your only off ramp from being exhaustively tracked

Just uninstalled Jerboa after using Lemmy on Firefox. So smooth! 👍👍
