Welcome to the community

I'm creating this place to achieve two things:

  • Bringing privacy to everyone's minds and making it as easy as possible.

I'm fed up with how complicated some privacy practices are, and I don't feel comfortable staying on Reddit. This community is my commitment to simplifying privacy and putting all the necessary resources at your disposal.

Why a New Community?

You might wonder, why not just join existing communities in the fediverse? I have two reasons.

  • First, I believe this instance is the best fit for my views, digital practices, and the values I want to promote.
  • Second, I want to purge unnecessary information and make everything as digestible as possible. So creating a new community from the ground up is the best choice in my opinion.

I have ADHD, and it’s been a challenge to keep up with having to go between countless websites, resources, etc.

The only way I’ve been able to overcome that with other topics, has been by creating highly curated resources for myself, and this time, I want to make that available for everyone with curated-step-by-step guides for privacy.

Community Growth Plans

For now, I’ll be driving the community myself, hoping to grow it into a niche but active space. I plan on posting 1-3 times a day (depending on my free time. Quality over quantity), and once a week, probably Fridays, I’ll share some cool resources or guides.

I want this place to maintain high quality from the start, so I’ll prioritize fewer posts with better sources. I'm also taking this as a chance to further teach myself about privacy, and everyone here is welcome to correct me, and encouraged to do so.

If you believe in this idea, I welcome you to Privacy, powered by dbzer0's instance. Thanks to db0 for making this place possible.
