Ha, same s**t happened to my insta after posting after workout pics that I have on here. I only use this site and Snapchat now for social media, and immortal day from time to time as well, but yeah, was never into social media and it did hurt for a bit that my account got disabled, mainly cause people I met IRL used it to message me, but after a while I got over it.

signal is cool, but requiring a phone number to make an account was and still is stupid

E2ee on anything owned by Meta might as well be worthless anyways. You can pretty much guarantee that they're man in the middling it. And 100% they're tracking and storing the metadata. The encryption algorithm they use is likely insecure as well.

I have signal, I haven't used it in years. I run a matrix server and integrate it with all my other accounts to consolidate all messaging into one platform.

Signal is honestly less secure than people think. Still better than WhatsApp or something like that. But it leaks a fair bit of data and relies on Google to function.
