The reason we don't really post many of the security vulnerabilities is because they aren't all something to be worried about with fear. The line here has often been what a researcher has found, vs what is loose in the field. Unless it is zero day and being actively exploited usually it will be patched by the time the article is posted. On Linux by the time the article is circulated the repos already have a patch. Reading security news for the uninitiated can have the sky is falling feel, and often that is unwarranted.
Your best defense is always using best practices. The internet is a jungle and always has been. The best thing you can do is remain calm and take the right action.

Not Every CVE Deserves a Fire Drill: Focus on What’s Exploitable
Not every "critical" vulnerability is a critical risk. Picus Exposure Validation cuts through the noise by testing what's actually exploitable in your environment — so you can patch what matters.

Why the self hosting push you ask? It's always been a part of our philosophy of software freedom, but lately the push for AI integration into everything big tech does is becoming far more aggressive.

The claims made by the competition are not PR smear they are the truth. Fix your platform Durov, instead of releasing useless features no one asked for. Why can't anyone comment on your own channel?

I want to know why channel owners aren't shown the ads that their users are. You have to ask does the platform profit from all the scammers and shills? In the four years that we have been here the problems have never been addressed once.

You have to wonder how much they will lock down a specific use OS. On Android this is done with SE Linux. We should be wary of anything they offer.
