The jump in Ada on the TIOBE index isn’t about the programming language, but the crypto token “ADA” from Cardano taking off. And TIOBE’s counting method is getting fooled here.

The current state of social media is deeply flawed. Centralized platforms control access to information, dictate what can or cannot be shared, and are vulnerable to censorship. These issues stifle open communication and the diversity of thought that a truly decentralized internet was supposed to enable.

To build a better system, we need more than just new apps—we need a new foundation. This is where i2p comes in. The Invisible Internet Project (i2p) has evolved significantly since its inception in the early 2000s. As a privacy-focused, censorship-resistant network layer, i2p offers the building blocks for a decentralized, non-censored communication infrastructure.

We’ve seen what happens when centralization takes over. Consider Usenet, once the backbone of free, distributed discussions. With the rise of centralized web forums like phpBB, Usenet’s role was reduced to a niche, largely limited to alt.binaries.*. So much valuable information was lost when forum sites simply disappeared. Centralized platforms come and go, taking entire communities and archives of knowledge with them.

i2p offers a chance to reverse this trend. It provides a resilient, decentralized alternative where communities can thrive without fear of erasure. By leveraging networks like i2p, we can move beyond the limitations of the traditional internet and create a social media ecosystem that prioritizes privacy, permanence, and freedom.

It’s time to think beyond the surface-level fixes and embrace solutions that address the structural flaws of today’s internet.

I don't want to defend security on telegram but man did you check telegram features at all? It is a cloud storage system. Handy got lost? No backup? No problem with telegram. Upload 2GB or 4GB (premium) Files and have them stored in as many chanels as you like. Video call on groups. A formidable bot API. It is not just a "mostly plaintext social Media app".

I can only recommend the on-site capable Zulip. We moved our in-house chat years ago onto Zulip and never looked back.

That is not true.

MD5 is not what Apple will be using, since every different bitrate and/or encoder will yield different files and thus different md5 sums for the same song. AND you will never know from the perspective of apple, which song we are looking at, if there are no meta information. So Apple will use some kind of audio fingerprinting system like MusicDNS or whatever. Look it up in Wikipedia. Probably they can even reuse information gathered by iTunes genius.

Just ignore spam. It's trival to track and Hitler will eat your socks. Makes you immune to the next Michael Jackson. What a bullshit.

I really hope you live up to your signature. Nuclear power will provide us with plenty of surprises in the future. Here in Germany we have such a thing right now. And politics don't even care that nuclear waste is leaking into the ground water.
