I use following feed the most, but now that I think about it I need to check out the other feeds more often to find interesting follows. Same goes for trending and discover features, yeah, I’m on Pixeldroid. I rarely use the web too.

It’s pretty private but when I uninstalled the community was getting sparse and notifications were slow. Might be better or worse these days.
I don’t disagree with you either. But I think that when people give their phone number to a business they are often unaware of all of the nefarious ways it will be used, whether by ignorance or deception.
My point is just that replaceable usernames are perfect for random people you meet IRL or on the Internet because it’s minimal trouble to disconnect permanently when the time comes.
I have given names to people on the Internet and changed names after our conversation was finished. I think that is much better than giving someone a phone number and much easier to change.
Speaking of dark patterns, anyone use TurboTax lately?
I’m using Librewolf. The problem is that when cookies are deleted some sites will want to text you to “authenticate” your browser again. Your name and password alone are not enough.
It gets old doing this repeatedly. And it pisses me off that they act like they are being so secure by doing this yet they use a text instead of an authenticator app.
My family is all on iMessage. I told them if they didn’t install Signal I wouldn’t reply to their texts.
At first, whenever they texted I would just reply with something that looked automated like “This user is no longer available via text message. Please install Signal if you wish to communicate.”
It’s invite only now?
