This is so on point and explains their anti-immigration policies perfectly.

I agree. They’ve also come a long way since the original cable were put in for communication in 1858. Granted, it took almost a 100 years for tech to catch up. We’re pretty innovative now though.

This seems pretty cool. It’s no crazier than putting a communication cable across the oceans and we already have the support for that. Is there something I’m missing?

Okay, let’s pretend someone stole his api and made him look like a hypocrite, why would it matter and why would you point that out? Being honorable towards a nazi is usually a nazi protecting a fellow nazi.

Have you ever heard Fuentes speak? He is an admitted nazi, not someone who hides it.

Did you miss the /s or are you a nazi?

Friendly reminder, 5 out of 9 SCOTUS seem to have taken bribes:

• Jane Roberts, who is married to Chief Justice John Roberts, made $10.3 million in commissions from elite law firms, whistleblower documents show Note: It’s not in the title, but he presided over one of their cases.
• Calls for Clarence Thomas Impeachment Vote After Report Exposes Billionaire-Funded Trips
• Kavanaugh accuser Ford testifies she ‘believed he was going to rape’ her & The Mystery of Brett Kavanaugh’s Baseball-Ticket Debt
• FBI interviewed individuals who accuse Amy Coney Barrett faith group of abuse
• Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor’s staff prodded colleges and libraries to buy her books
• Justice Samuel Alito Took Luxury Fishing Vacation With GOP Billionaire Who Later Had Cases Before the Court
• Law firm head bought Gorsuch-owned property

To add to that, you’d be without your phone, you still have to work and you’re not paying your family. This happened during covid too, there was a boat stuck out there for months with nowhere to go and no one cared. It’s crazy.

We’re in Not the Onion territory here.

The moment they started collecting your bookmark history and hiding it really well is when I knew they were heading towards the dark side. I don’t think they’re they’re there yet, but I might be naive about it.

Thank you, I’ll look into it.

That looks too good to be true, do you use it? I’ve been not as happy with Firefox lately. They keep a record of all my bookmark history and update so often it makes your head spin. I couldn’t tell if the updates are because they’re doing something or it’s so popular that they need to do that for security.

How does the metal detector work? I’ve never heard of a phone being able to do that.

Meta owns that, so it’s complicated.

Grok

Elon owns that one.

That’s a nah.

It seems like the closest we’re going to get without him actually saying in his notes that that’s where it was.

I think we’re on the same page, I don’t care if they read my feed in the slightest. Reddit made a shit ton off of me and my friends and I didn’t care about that either. They were providing a free service and I used it, make money. My issue with reddit was/is, they think they’re the product and treat everyone as such.

Be the change you want to see

Yep, that’s one of the things I’m doing right here by getting the word out for everyone to spread out through the Fediverse. People were saying that when I joined, but I didn’t understand what the ramifications were. Of course, I can’t tell anyone on the largest instance, lol.

Nice, it looks like you can do it manually too.

When I unfollowed everything for the first time, I did it manually. I spent hours using a Facebook-provided feature to click unfollow on each of my friends, groups, and pages.

I’m pro-fediverse, that’s why I think it’s just as bad. There is one instance in particular, that has the vast majority of Lemmy, that is controlling the narrative for most Lemmy users and it probably will only get worse. I was banned from that one because an admin was curating what I said. Now I don’t really have a voice over there because I’m not savvy enough to do an alt that they couldn’t tell. So here I am, not being able to let people know that I’ve noticed them being curated and they’ve also banned my community in the biggest instance (that one I like).

This fact is rarely discussed but a major factor why the fediverse helps with democratization of the internet. Free information.

Absolutely, I want to keep it that way. I think corporations taking over one of the big instances would be subtle and will have terrible consequences for the fediverse. People sign up for it, not knowing, and then get curated just like on Facebook.

Why not both being an issue? Why wouldn’t they say who they really are if they’re a major corporation.

Meta (or similar) probably is already running one of our major instances. We don’t know who actually owns all of them.

Yes, why isn’t that one of the “good ones”?
