I host a matrix tuwunel server and can recommend it.

My motivations are that it gives greater control, and i think federated platforms are better.

I have it set up on a hetzner vps running debian, which tuwunel provides an official package for.

I mean the Chinese already did step up their game

Well i’m from the Netherlands and i use that as the definition so your statement of it being US only is false.

The three worlds model is called the 3 worlds because there was a quite clear cut line between if a county was US, Soviet, or non aligned. and these “worlds” were called worlds because the people of the first and second world had relatively little contact with eachother.

Yes its an antiquated definition i agree, so why try to use the antiquated three worlds model nowadays where it no longer makes sense to use? What is the second world now according to your definition?

My second paragraph wasn’t meant to imply you said it was meant to talk about the term and how its used like how plantfanatic did.

Nor does third world country even mean “developing countries” or “historically exploited, oppressed, exsanguinated nations” it means not US or Soviet aligned but it seems everyone has forgot that.

The US can’t stop being a first world country because the entire definition of first world country is US aligned. (unless the russians completely take over the US at which point they would be second world i guess?)

Edit: Unless you mean the maoist sense, then third world does mean “historically exploited, oppressed, exsanguinated nations”, but in that definition the US would still not be part of the third world.
