On Social Media

Just a last reshare, cu all on the other side!! #signalflare Originally shared by Udo Rader With g+ about to shut down soon, those are my other social network handles, in case you want to stay in contact: * twitter: https://twitter.com/riaschissl * MeWe: https://mewe.com/i/udorader * pluspora: udo_rader@pluspora.com I've been using twitter for a couple of years already, so that will stay for sure, it is the "safe bet". #googleplus #g+ #googleplusshutdown #signalflare #gplus

Here are some of my experiences with the various g+ alternatives that I found worth sharing, so maybe they are useful for someone else, too. All of them are of course different from how they work and what their business model is. ■ business model, "sustainability" MeWe is commercially operated, and they promise to respect and defend your privacy. That's nice. But there is no guarantee this could not change anytime, for example when they are get bought up by some "big player" once they have reached a critical mass (just remember what has happened to WhatsApp). And once you've reached a certain limit on data (think images and videos you may upload), it's not free any more and you have to pay for it. That said, I have to add that I have absolutely no issues to pay for something that's worth it. You will see ads there, but they are not personally targeted, at least to what they say. Their sources are closed source, so there's no way to find out wha...
