My evidence is something being proprietary and in the hands of big tech (in this case Apple). What makes you blindly trust in Apple's words?

You do have a good point. However, I can’t consider a proprietary operating system like iOS truly private. It may be secure (certainly more so than stock Android and some random custom Android based ones) but if I can’t be sure that my operating system isn’t spying on me, then security alone doesn’t matter much for me tbh. Apple’s operating systems are no exception to this.
So, in a ranking that considers both security AND privacy, iOS being the second one is questionable. However, if the ranking is based solely on security, then I have no issue with it.
So more security equals more privacy? Is that why iOS is second in your rankings?
Revolut is an option. And hopefully soon we'll also get GNU Taler, which isn't exactly a virtual card system, but is a private payment system. The customer is kept anonymous while the seller's income is transparent.
No, doesn't seem so.
It looks awesome. Did you make a sharpness test?
Yep. If you don't want anyone else, just close the registrations.
I'm pretty sure you implied that the ranking was based on security and privacy. I don't see the privacy benefits of using iOS over a custom privacy OS.
LW's user base accounts for about 36.4% (as of writing this) of all Lemmy users (spread across approximately 570 instances according to FediDB), which is too large.
You will occassionally see some people from other platforms, like mastodon, commenting or posting here. But Lemmy isn't the most compatible one, so you probably won't see microblogs and such. If you want to see microblogs as well, use mbin (kbin fork). It is a mix of Lemmy and Mastodon. You can micro blog and comment on magazines (communities in the mbin/kbin platform) that way.
I especially am thinking of self hosting mbin because I do want to see some microblogs from some users.
Also I welcome you to Lemmy and the Fediverse. Good thing you didn't choose lemmy.world or lemmy.ml
I agree. Revolt is a good alternative to Discord. Matrix does not feel the same as Discord, but just a WhatsApp alternative that is decentralized and federated.
