Private communication apps only work if they have people you want to talk to and Signal is the only one I could get my family to use.

Signal is by far much easier to get family/friends to use than Matrix or Session. Downloaded it to my parents' phones and told them this is how you contact me.

I'm pretty excited about Mullvad Browser. It basically became my go to if I am not going to be logging into anything.

 

Before the API changes Teddit was one of my favorite ways to browse Reddit. It seems like more and more that companies make changes that reduce privacy.

I think it was chosen when Firefox mobile didn't have https everywhere for the app yet. The maintainers of the list also take a while to review and update it.

Either way. This would be a win-win for the Fediverse. Allows new people to hear about it and validates Mastadon as an alternative to Twitter and Threads.
