The best part is the UN charter clearly states that when a country is attacked, it has aright to self defense. Let's watch Israel talk their way around that as they vindicate Iran and incriminate themselves.

If you liked "Florida Man", you're gonna love "Florida Woman"

It’s all worth it if it means having this image grace the Fediverse.

This is what it redirects to if it seems safer: https://šime.eu/3

If you are posting on walled-garden big tech site like Reddit, Instagram, Twitter / X, the site and therefore the company certainly owns your content and all the metadata attributed to it. You're the product. This is why most of us are here on the Fediverse where things are different. Maybe if it's your personal photo you took than you can make a copyright claim to some degree and download your data tediously but once it's on their network it's generally theirs to do as they please, whether that be sell to Google or any other advertiser or use on in-house advertising. Often without proper informed consent and not always legally. It's definitely a scam, I agree. Hopefully this exposes it more and brings more people to places on the Fediverse where there's no owner/seller/buyer of your data or anything else you contributed.

So it’s user generated content that is a product for Reddit to sell, like most big tech companies do, as I said.

Welcome!

It's content that Reddit users generated which apparently is theirs to sell.

The US actually admitted it hasn't verified Israel's UNRWA claims . Therefore it is unconfirmed. The actual conspiracy theory is believing claims without evidence and further spreading them. It's unfortunate that you think the claims justify the collective punish of an entire people ( a war crime under the Geneva convention ) , an organization of thousands and an actress who shared a fundraiser for the people harmed by this misinformation.

The article calls the allegations agains UNRWA "explosive" yet they are completely unconfirmed . WME was once the agency of Charlie Chaplin who sympathetically depicted immigrants and refugees and was forced into exile by Washington during the McCarthy era witch hunts. If they currently find it controversial for one of their clients to share a fundraiser for people in need, they are allowing those same cycles to repeat and it may be time to find a new agency.

I'm from Boston and this is painfully accurate. Especially the last line. My last job was a delivery job and me and the other person were constantly questioning if it was one lane or two.

Thanks. They’ve referred to themselves as a fork of Signal but maybe a bit of an oversimplification

I have Session. Given that it's a fork of Signal and more anonymous I'm inclined to trust it from a privacy standpoint but can't say I have the knowledge to really critique it's tech. People aren't really on there yet, at least nobody I know, so I don't have much use for it yet but I would if it catches on a bit more at some point.

“Betrayed by this town / Let’s burn it all down “ might be the most relevant chorus of today’s music. It’ll be stuck in my head all night and would fit right in at most protests

And that he lived for so long

I wasn’t and there’s no need for your hostile response. People can read the article themselves. Have a nice day

That’s definitely a sentence in the article, yes

I’m on a small pixelfed instance as well and the global feed can be useful for discovering users on other pixelfed instances and also for viewing mastodon posts with pictures. Similar to mastodon it will expand as you follow more people so keep an eye on it and maybe use your mastodon account to find more photographers using hashtags like #photography. Your discover page should show photos under trending hashtags as well so check for that and use search under hashtags. It does show local trending photos accounts at the moment, you’re correct. Dansup, the pixelfed developer, says in the next update for the beta app which is shipping soon and going public soon, the discover page will be expanding to show trending users and photos from across the fediverse.

There was never any lag in service. I'm on that instance. I believe the person was raided due to their activism and had a backup of some data but not the actual server. They made an announcement and told people to change their passwords. Many lost a degree of trust but are being as transparent as possible with members. https://kolektiva.social/@admin/110637031574056150

The concern is that suddenly Meta will make up the biggest part of the Fediverse and exert too much power as a company, which they don't have a good record for, over the non-corporate Fediverse. Historically this would allow them to "embrace, extend, extinguish" the Fediverse that many love and have spent years building.
