Before I have brought up my dislike of finding FOSS projects using Slack as a primary communication channel. I also want to express disdain for projects using Discord as well. But I would like to go one step further.

No FOSS project should make a proprietary service a primary communication channel, ever. It excludes those who do not want to risk their privacy being exposed, excludes those to do not user proprietary software, and does not fit with the principles of something like Mastodon.

Chrome is a proprietary software, and proprietary software developers feel free to do invasive things for whatever purpose they deem necessary. Users would have no recourse if they were using this tool for spying or data collection, other than uninstalling it.

People who use proprietary software are victims. Do not advocate for proprietary wares
in any form.
