Or use a service that handles all the abstractions, so that a non-tech user can run their own relay. (http://relaying.io)

I do want the community to be bigger and diversified here that for sure, but through ZBD.

ZBD represents all the values that led me to escape traditional social media. 

1- You do not have access to your private key, so you are stuck using ZBD, and cannot switch to another client. If ZBD had your private key, meaning it can see your DMs for example, write notes on behalf, etc,..so not your key not your account.

2- ZBD requests location access, does not accept you using VPN to play games, and asks you to activate tracking. So there is data collection mecanisms behind this! And maybe, you data is sold to data brokers (that I’m not sure about, hence the maybe)
