Instagram reels and youtube shorts is structured in the same way (from what I can see superficially), though I dont use anything but Lemmy/YouTube. Though the common complaint I hear is that the algorithm is significantly worse on alternatives.
Not sure how this meaningfully changes anything other than forcing people to use another app that also violates their privacy.
I have never used tiktok but you’re pro shutting down social media for what reason? What makes Tiktok more evil than every other social media?
You can blame both of them for the disastrous response. Breaking the terms of the withdrawal, imposing sanctions and then drone striking civilians in Afghanistan before withdrawal were massive contributors. Culpability isn’t black and white.
Israel told them to go to safe spots, such as refugee shelters or the Rafah crossing. The bombed both anyways. Not only does it take significantly more time to evacuate 2 million people, they had no where to evacuate to. This ship and the employers had an option, go through a passageway where they were explicitly warned they would be fired upon or turn back. They chose to ignore explicit orders believing the US had more control and could grant them safe passage. That’s not remotely comparable.
You mean while they were under complete siege and 80,000 died? You wanted them to attack their allies and also take on mass starvation/bombing raids from Saudi Arabia 😆
Thanks for replying to every comment I’ve made to ensure I know that I am a ‘fucking child’. It’s the most mature display I have ever seen. You’re teaching me how to be an adult.
Civilians they told to turn back. Its a single ship not an entire landmass. They immobilized most ships and ceased fire. That’s not some kind of unrestrained bloodlust.
Those waters aren’t safe. They are free to circumnavigate
Where did you get the idea
from their leader and troops
sorry bud but if you’re really going to equate the death of two people to a genocide you lost me there.
They’ve killed two people out of quite a sizable number of attacks. Deeply unfortunate anyone died, but it speaks to the fact they’re trying to avoid civilian casualties. They have the courage to stand up to the US backed genocide of Gaza, because not long ago, they faced similar odds in the US backed, Saudi destruction of Yemen.
They’re using their sovereign rights to blockade their waters. I don’t care about the demonization or the disruption of shipping. They’re putting themselves in the sights of the US out of sheer empathy. Which gives me hope.
I mostly feel for the two developers who have the task of building a social media network for a wage that couldn’t buy you one developer. They’re overloaded with issues and project goals. You cannot go 10 minutes on the ‘fediverse’ without hearing how the developers are awful tankies while then demanding them to add features. Must be exhausting.
I agree its an important feature, I want the internet to have privacy in mind. But its really easy to overlook how much work they put in only to be met with such hostility. Everyone talks about ‘but let’s just fork it, that’s the beauty of open source’ when I guarantee you will not find devs with the same dedication or passion.
Hope that people can agree that wanting this feature is A-OK but that the people working on this project are just overworked people who deserve a bit more respect.
Non-Jewish Arabs in the basic laws of Israel do not have rights to self determination. Its a fucking apartheid state. Its like saying millions of native Africans lived in South Africa. These people only had a reason to attack because they live in an open air prison that mirrors a Warsaw ghetto with complete siege from their neighbor. A lot of the things they did was retaliation and a deep brewing anger. What the fuck were they supposed to do? March peacefully? Israel shot them by the thousands in 2018 when they tried to. where is your humanity?
You are ridiculous. First you spread misinformation about the ICJ ruling, bending what the ruling meant. Now you are trying to use a ‘no, you’ card to bend my words and pretend that there hasn’t been a racist campaign against Palestinians and Arabs for decades.
There were likely rapes that occurred on October 7th, and there have been rapes of Israeli detained Palestinian hostages as well. How can you not see that one is now being used as a racial justification for genocide while the other is ignored.
What’s controversial is the depiction of Palestinians as rapists and outlining a systemic, racial, or cultural issue of rape within Arab populations, then pointing to the few instances it does occur as proof for a racist point of view.
Both parties are guilty of rape and sexual assault. None of that is okay. However only one is being racially profiled as having an innate proclivity for rape.
thank you for clarifying
group offers diversity inclusion consulting, whatever that means
steam user curates list to tell people to avoid games solely because a diversity consulting group was onboard.
I go to curated list and click on games to check on reviews
People review bomb random games with shred of involvement with said company, including smaller devs
Many reviews say the game is too ‘woke’. These people’s profiles are inflammatory or bigoted
i fucking hate gaming magazines
That isn’t what I said. If you cut the middleman, you are informed nearly immediately. You can tell whether your government’s actions align with their words immediately. In many instances we learned of the lies before they were even told. That’s why you currently have a nation of cynics.
where can I buy your crystal ball
Why not just impose strict regulatory laws on handling of user data and impose fines for everyone who breaks these rules? Oracle hosts most if not all user data in the US so any investigations are already completely possible. Sure you would have to impose the same laws for all (even american) social media sites, but that’s a win for every single person on this planet…
