Few thoughts to stay secure in an Online World
Use encrypted messaging apps. Several apps allow you to connect with others securely if you're using a smartphone. These include Signal and WhatsApp (both owned by Facebook), as well as Telegram and Wire (owned by Google). These services use end-to-end encryption, so they don't store any data on their servers or share it with anyone else.

New users take note, there is a better way.
Haha. I stated using reddit after finding it when wire.com. Back in the day the top 10 reddit posts would show on Wire. This was around 2006/07. I specifically remember there being a science. You made me think, maybe I'm losing my mind so I checked into it. Sure enough there is a timeline available. Here is a 2007 accolade for r/ science, " For most of the year, "science" and "programming" are the most popular subreddits. I like the info for year 2008, "This year is dominated by the launch of numerous new subreddits." I do appreciate how confident you were in your incorrect answer though. You are probably a Digg.com refugee.

Discord has been using ML to determine the gender and age of some of its users
I'm a big fan of Matrix, and run a small homeserver for my family in friends. But if you really want to explore the frontiers peer to peer seems really intriguing because you don't need any server. https://tox.chat/ just to name one.

I tried to like Jami, but it never worked right when I tried it. I didn't find a decent Android Tox client with video call, but it should work alright for text.

Is there a privacy-friendly site to upload an image with someone that can be deleted later?
Options are limited. All modern messengers require trust in the company running the server they connect to. So the only way to eliminate needing that trust is to use a messenger that is peer 2 peer (no server). This is limiting though since no server means no offline messaging. I know of one messenger that is encrypted, anonymous (required no identifying info to sign up) and is peer 2 peer. tox.chat
What are some alternatives?
