this basically means a "shut up" to me. this is not a proper answer to my problem.
By 'riot' did you mean 'element'? and thank you.
my comment should not offend anyone, my apologize
yes, riot >>> element
explanation for "sharp" wording> often i get on web a thing, a lot of people expect to be private, secure and confident about their status of privacy and security with minimum knowledge and effort. Best case scenario > get a simple, point me on answer, have already existing platform/app to use. There are many ready tools, good tools to use, but no complex platform. You should know the small reliable fragments and put them together in the way u need and like.
there is no straight forward way to cover this, there is no "10 things how to keep your mobile communication secure and private" and if you see something like that, its some pseudo tech article written by whoeverfck for woeverfck reason and purpose. It may offer a partial solution, but no partial solution can be applied on this topic.
you like to have it set correct way, dig so deep that you will hit the bottom and even after that you should question your status if its everything correct/ if you are on latest update, unfortunately we are going full speed and accelerating more with digital age/selves, people should care about their digital identities more. Its super time consuming, you need to have at least some tech background, drive and some money to invest in hw. Build it from the bottom, to have a stable basis, which should be enabler/provider for dynamical changes on the top, as the changes are inevitably coming.
There so much things on the way, their are coming and going, its dynamic process, its IT, continuous change. observe > adapt > overcome (or exploit :D)

i dont recall lemmy as a wast platform with a wide spectrum of user such as reddit or some fb groups. This is for me more focused, specific, granular "soc app", no lazy questions > no lazy answers. So I wrote a short "lazy" answer.
ps - i hope i will not get dissappointed with lemmy as I did with HN (as its heavily adminized, monetized, scalled and used for individual group interests)
from bunker, your bunkrra, lol
