I sure as hell trust EU consumer protections over american nonsense, and I will be creating a profile there. I’ve already opened an account on a norweagian based social media, that is slowly growing.
I doubt any of these will explode over night, but an alternative is more than welcome.
I don’t mind submitting a photo id or whatever so long as I don’t have to be public about it. Like my public profile could still be a mushroom and a word jumble. Frankly I think some kind of Id is the way to go. We’ve made it abundantly clear that humanity cannot be trusted with anonymous mass information flow. I trust the checks and balances in EU way more than the others.
I think though it would be good to have some government body online for the sole purpose of providing online services a verification that I’m over 18 and a real person. They don’t really need to know anything else about me. I already log into various government services that contain my personal details. Just fork it out to answer those two yes/no questions for sites that need to know.
Norwegians, and Danes for now but they plan to slowly open for more countries. Sweden next.
The platform is called “Hudd”. It’s more locally minded, has no algorithms determining your feed, and is actually trying to focus on creating social relationships. I kind of like it, and have gotten my mom and dad on board.
It’s kind of amazing how calm European alternatives can be, without the constant rage bait engagements, and the shit-flinging. It’s a lot like how Facebook used to be in the early days, where people just shares a picture of a sunset, or describe how their day is, or shares photos from a vacation.
I might move on to others if better ones come along, but we’ll see. There are going to be a lot of them popping up now, because the market is most definitely there.

Which one if you don’t mind me asking? Or it’s only directed to Norwegians?

Thank you, I’m keeping an eye on all these novelties. Was trying a luxembourgish alternative to Instagram, Monnett but was not very convinced…
The problem is that American brainrot have had so long to evolve now, that it will take a while to build viable alternatives.
