I made a spreadsheet that ranks messengers for privacy

I've been working really hard to research and rank messaging apps by their privacy. The more green boxes the better.

I plan to turn PrivacySpreadsheet.com into a place for privacy data on everything from cars to video games. It's all open source too on GitHub.

Not trying to advertise, I just put a lot of time into researching all this, and I want to share it since I think others could benefit.

I noticed that some of these are apps and some are protocols. It makes sense to list the app if the protocol is proprietary, but it's confusing that there can be multiple apps for an open protocol and not all of those apps could feature the same level of privacy.

Please submit a GitHub issue so I can track the suggestions and problems, thanks

@UnHidden
A Mastodon post linking to a Lemmy post linking to a GitHub with no info worth only a .com website link left

Didn't know my patience can be used up before seeing anything worthwhile

(And frankly, I would still bet the ranking somehow confuses privacy with anonymity)

I can't wait for 0.19.

UnHidden OP ,

A mastodon post? what? did someone share it there?

The first row and first column should stay visible when you scroll with such a dense graph.

The is the messenger matrix from the German blog Kukitz-Blog (it is a blog with a strong focus on privacy and is in my opinion well informed). But no worries, the matrix is also available in English.

Maybe you can take some inspiration from the matrix.

This is a really cool idea, will share it around!

Maybe add the website on the GitHub-Repo as the projetc-site URL, makes it easier to navigate.
