Tech is a boogie man to many executypes. I’ve seen plenty of IT pros that were in over their head but smooth enough con men. If they keep coming up with things to throw money at/trim money out of convincingly they have long and successful careers.
Enjoy training on my -checks notes- DELETED POST HISTORY YOU FUCKING CLOWNS.
Stay ForeverFucked™ spez.
And this is why you VPN.
Do you happen to remember the name?
I’ve been meaning to ask this elsewhere but I guess I can piggyback off this post-
What tool(s) are available for deleting/removing your post history? I’ve seen mention that some didn’t delete their posts but had a bot or something replace the text in them with some text about leaving for Lemmy, and I’d like to do something like that myself.
It took a couple weeks but I’ve found that blocking some bot accounts and adjusting the sorting on the app I use has plenty of fresh content with active posts. It isn’t exactly the same as reddit in its prime, but I shouldn’t expect it to be either.
It’s causing me to branch out into other topics and conversations that I probably would’ve missed on a gigantic platform like reddit. I think reddit made it easy to see interesting content because of how long it had to develop into a community. Lemmy is still a bit jumbled and fragmented, but the community seems to be sticking around and forming a new identity apart from reddit.
Why the hell can’t we just have both? One of the biggest problems with smart speakers and voice assistants is that they’re so damn stupid so often. If A.I. were to become smart enough to be what the current assistants/speakers aren’t, surely that would drive device sales and engagement astronomically higher right?
I was done as soon as the Boost port was available to download. Reddit has sucked for a long time. The spez bullshit was just the last straw.
Reddit will continue to do things that push the users away. As apps and accessibility to Lemmy improve, hopefully quality posts and comments will continue to grow.
Spez doesn’t seem to know if the product is the service or the users, so he tries to fuck them up equally.
Many moons.
Israel is driven by vengeance and fear.
That’s been the case for decades but a lot of the world won’t hold them accountable for their own actions.
Palestinian lives and civil rights almost always take a backseat to Israeli rhetoric and posturing on the world stage. The loss of any innocent life is tragic whether it be Israeli, Palestinian, or otherwise and should be treated as such.
Unfortunately for everyone Palestine/Gaza has become so desperate to escape their shrinking cage that they seem to have resorted to desperate and despicable tactics, and Israel will gladly commit genocide if the world allows them to. It’s a no win situation that should be defused by world powers, not encouraged and bankrolled by them.
YouTube filtering is fairly unique to YouTube since they serve ads so aggressively so it’s unlikely to help on other sites.
Found Empty G’s alt.
Old people have fire sticks now.
But I can’t prove anything since the app is gone now.
Reminds me of Robinhood WSB users.
Where as a monster comes up with excuses to keep looking at it….such as an excuse like what you just provided.
I didn’t excuse anything, I commented on what he’s being accused of vs what the headline left open for interpretation.
This has been my experience as well. In the past friends and family were more reluctant to break away from whatever their default communication app was. These days most people are already familiar with the idea of using one thing to text, another to “message”, and often more than that. I’ve had great success converting people to more secure platforms now that they understand the process.
