[deleted] Flarum however has taken it upon themselves to completely ignore this requirement, so I took it upon myself to use another product.
More hyperbole.😁 Flarum developers have not completely ignored it. They took an almost abandoned product and got it to stable. No one said there will never be a GDPR extension. And if there ever is a GDPR extension, I’ll probably, unfortunately, use it. Unfortunately because no country or union should dictate the Internet in this way. It’s the last somewhat free space on the planet.
I won’t be bullied into not running a website because of the EU. I’ll forever be a free and open Internet warrior. A fighter for the rights of the good small website owner who doesn’t mess with people’s privacy anyway. 😎 If you are clear with users and don’t do anything bad with their data, then they will know and sense that, you’ll get more users, and life is wonderful. If you are a bad guy, you’ll get fined or shut down.
Anyway, you have to do what you feel you have to do. Like you said. You’ve moved on. Thanks for the advice. I’m sure the core devs have at least read some of this. There’s nothing else to say.
Well, there is another thing. I do get frustrated when someone feels like they are 100% correct, then someone else shows them evidence, yet they still stick to all of their views. Compromise and understanding is needed badly in this world.
Always keep an open mind about everything. Even GDPR. That’s my opinion. You never know when you might not have one part not quite right. Accept other people’s opinions versus: no, sorry, it’s simple, Flarum isn’t compliant. Just not the way to be.
