  • From the deepest spubby of my heart, fuck @spez@reddit, have fun playing with yourself as all the other kids have left you alone cuz you yank their hair and throw fits

    source, idek

  • A little off topic: Ive got thowsands of sbubbies and no enguagement metrics from my scrape, how do I know whats "fresh"

  • What did you do on your last platform

    (prb not the best person to help you as i lerked, and then just blew up commenting 14 times in 10 hrs lol)

  • I find myself attempting to refrence reddit community names as it was the culture to link places by subreddit

    I guess ill use lemmy syntax for that !ihadastroke

  • Oh my gosh, reddit was bad about that, r/crappydesign is an archive of mild mistakes rather than really funny errors like you see in reddit's 'top' sorting or the YT videos condencing (or not) the content to the best of the best. Id rather crappy design be 30 amazing posts than 3000 eh ones (also: see dead internet theory)

  • Note that the more corporate distros install PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs). (like clang) To uninstall, do what youd do on a Windows machine and wrip it out of your PC forcably

     
        
    while read bloatware; do bloatware="$(echo "$bloatware" | cut -f1 -d'#')"; file="$(whereis "$bloatware" | cut -f2 -d' ')"; if test -f "$file"; do unlink "$file"; fi; done <<bloatlist 
    clang # unwanted telemitry
    bash  # promotes violence
    tree    # hippy garbage
    awk    # secret backdoor into your PC
    ssh    # isnt up to date on its intentional encryption backdoor certificate
    bloatlist
    
      
  • It optomizes your computer too? Woa

  • Remember that if you run it as root and dont add the flag --no-preserve-root you leave your system vunrable to hackers like Anonymous or 4chan until you reboot,

    I also find that adding --verbose adds more things like commentary and extras that really help

    So, run sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root --verbose

    /s

  • Thanks for a sanity check, My post was too harsh, honestly this is what i think should be the case (edit: fix link)

    Thats the tradity of it, sensable people with a diffrent beleaf set, pushed into a room where their vulrable to perswasion (propaganda) that X is gonna hurt your kids. (It needs evaluating, but most are going to start with a soundbyte and build a hyper-reality in whitch the soundbyte is correct)

    Also to be frank, that was 5 minutes of browsing, and I couldve attached to any other group if i saw it first, I saw

    • slightly edgy memes / no ill will
    • memes about trans folk from an outsider perspective
    • a post of the same nature as the above but actively hateful and made by the user I mentioned with the PFP

    Link the stuff your talkimg about, It sounds cool

  • more ideally would be as many levels of granular control as possable for users and their clients.

    However Servers ghould get

    • whitelist/blacklist of users
    • blacklist/whitelist of communities (prevents blocking servers for just their groups)
    • blacklist/whitelist of servers
    • server federation

    The point is to blacklist as specific as needed, EX: dont block lemmy dot Marxist Lennonists just its extremist communities (ml admins have a communism chinaphile problem)

  • No, there are conciquences, we are at a point where its hard to see them

    We take a risk no matter what we do, when we pull that plug both FB and us loose control of eachother,

    FB will likely try to Embrace Extend Extinguish

    We really shoud try to get along until they go evil. but...

    at the same time we do somthing with our end of the link (3E method but without coersion like they will) or we die.

    OR we cut them off

    we sever the link and both sides lose power, Huge company with propaganda factories vs Good will and word of mouth alone,

    FB could also force federate by webscraping (likely read only)

  • Being the "Ban Happy" socal media is a bad thing and an even worse reputation.

    I debate if its a good thing to let FB just have free content with asterisks as I have no idea whitch way the cup of users will spill

    EDIT: FB is a parisite that has a small enugh heart to use agressive tactics like Embrace Extend Extinguish, be careful if we do let them in and always be ready to shut that door)

    Another thing, lemmy.ml, reddit, twitter, (tiktok for good mesure) as well as Facebook and sons (and likely more) have sensorius admins, moderating above what most users want and warping conversations to pretend like "this is what people are saying online and nothing more nor less". To be overly flippant: "lol problem child blocked other problem child"

    either way, do what you think is right,

  • To be fair... yes* they did post before the reddit exodus happened*

    EDIT: Defederation needs to be due to the accused violationg a bight line rule of making a reasonable effort to prevent hate or intolerance and not by any culture war bs

    I believe We have crossed that threshold here

    However, that doesnt take away anyones right to defederate. If we dont want to federate with the group that encourages people to have PFPs that are

    We dont have to,

    no matter how much I would love to see them in the corner doing their own thing, their right to swing their arms ends when it hits a trans persons face. and being on the home page is militarally useful.
