I connected to Mullvad VPN's servers in a fraction of a second, I stay connected to my VPN all day with a ridiculous battery drain, and when I choose to connect to a country and not to a specific server the application automagically moves to the country's fastest server.

From my humble perspective, when it comes to life advises, an advantage of instant messaging over social media is that your advice explicitly answers to the practical issue being discussed, instead of letting your reader figure out how it applies to themselves

Speaking as an activist with a ProtonMail address, I was using it because I was easy to manipulate and because I was looking for a social status.

This may be why I've become an activist in the first place. I've always been doing my best – if anything to deserve this status –, but it looks like doing my best wasn't enough.

And seriously, Proton employees on the field? This is indecent, and deceptive advertising.

… Why did we spend several days talking about the name billionaires gave to their child again?

Art is more enjoyable if the food's good. Which may be why it's a social code. I love art btw

Yeah I registered an account on a public XMPP server with a cool domain name, and one day I didn't get replies from an XMPP client developer because my XMPP server wasn't updated (backward-incompatible federation problem)

That's the most innocuous example of why you should pay for your XMPP server (again, https://infosec-handbook.eu/blog/xmpp-aitm/)

Also, Nomagic UK provide all of these services for 8€/month, including an XMPP (Openfire) server, a Matrix server (Synapse), a Pleroma instance, Wallabag, Seafile, temporary images/file hosting,… https://nomagic.uk/services/

I casually talk with the admin and he's literally putting as much services as possible on his server until new subscriptions let him pay for a new one, that's not a commercial service that's activism

You should really read this blog article before creating an account on a "public" (random) XMPP server https://infosec-handbook.eu/blog/xmpp-aitm/
