My rule of thumb: never trust a service whose front page has a "Pricing" tab.
Privacy
A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
Some Rules
- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience
- Be nice :)

Extending your rule: Never trust a service whose “Pricing” page is hidden.
Earlier today, I encountered a website[0] that does exactly this.
What do you mean by "hidden"?
There are grease monkey scripts which should still function on the old.reddit site, even though they haven't been updated for a long time.
Interesting tool ! Indeed, thats quiet shady to give ALL your accounts informations to a closed source app...
And alternativeto has no real alternative, rn, but let's hope something exists doing the same
I don't know of FOSS "one-stop-shops" but these services should have APIs you can use and write scripts to mass-delete. It wouldn't be particularly hard or time-consuming, and you can also publish your scripts so other people can use them instead of writing your own.
It can be done fairly easily. It's literally just using the API of these services. I might try to do this while I am learning how to use Tauri in Rust.
I got a little rust program to replace all my discord messages with quotes from the uncyclopedia.
