Healthcare is a universal right Let’s start with that then move on to the next fight

Enshittification comes to SoundCloud…that’s a real shame

In saying we are here I’m not saying we are succeeding…I’m saying we’re trying

Same is true about Reddit but we all here

YouTube is so horrible now I hope it’s reaching the tipping point where even non tech people may get sick of it and look elsewhere. There is no reason to have ONE giant main fucking video site and that’s it for most of the English speaking world. I need to look up how to do grout…or open this smoke detector…or beat this video game…no reason that all these videos cannot be hosted via other websites or just self hosted with the affordability of bandwidth. I’ve loved most of what google has done for a long time and they won the browser wars, crushed Mapquest, destroyed hotmail and yahoo mail…now everything is turning to shit. Google search all but refuses to find what you’re searching for. 15 second video…30 second ad. No.

I don’t know if federation is the answer but YouTube being ubiquitous for internet video has got to go.

You can if you use the web app

Absolutely, there's something special about handcrafted products that can't be replicated by AI. While technology has its place, the touch of human creativity and care truly makes a difference in products made with love. 💕✨ #HandcraftedMagic

I have a few feelings about it. First, I’m an average middle-aged middle-class straight white cisgendered male and the TikTok algorithm feeds me tons of stuff that is very pro feminism, pro trans rights, anti racist, pro labor. In a very touching and uplifting way a lot of times, actually. I’m a boring person but VERY passionate about these socially liberal issues and it gives me what I want and need to feel like a force of good, keep up with social issues, stay involved in some way feel passionate. My TikTok feed is woke as shit and good for me. I simply don’t see this on Facebook, YouTube and all the rest. I don’t see it. Of course everyone’s algorithm is different…

So maybe TikTok uses my attention for evil…data harvesting, influencing, hacking…I don’t know. I don’t trust china any more or less than most people. But how much do we trust meta, Google, Apple, Microsoft etc? I don’t particularly.

I may just be naive…but I do see a lot of good things that TikTok does, as dumb as it sounds.

Ha thanks

I was researching a fire the other day for work, just wanted to verify basic facts. Local FD posted incidents on Twitter. Nope. Couldn’t manage to view it. That’s bullshit. They absolutely should not use it for that reason and to boot helping a megalomaniac make money.

I like the fact that it’s rated r and has salty themes and language, not everything needs to be for kids…and love Jamie Fox and Will Frerrel but also have zero interest. Nothing in the trailer was remotely funny. Oh I’m a dog imma fuck that couch. Seems like it would be funny but somehow still wasn’t.

Awesome!

Yeah just being a smartass. The feddiverse is open and free…instances are run by people who can do whatever they want. That’s the beauty of it.

True I was just considering the part where maybe Karen’s pave the way for special treatment like if you don’t like food they take it back and hope you don’t leave a bad review. Thanks to Karen’s being assholes to waiters.

I feel like it’s easy here and on Reddit to just assume most people are in their teens, 20’s, maybe 30’s but I’m always surprised at how many 40-60 year olds are around. I’m 43 and pretty near the border where x turns y… There are a ton of us.

And many of us are busy because we are going to softball games, moving kids off to college…I have no time for anything but my kids’ sports.

You’re gonna have to dumb it down because I have absolutely no idea what you mean

Wife and I both got a couple of dollars from the equifax settlement where millions of people had their private info leaked. I feel like it was 20 something?

There have been others for tiny amounts. Being an AT&T user when they got sued for throttling “unlimited” data a few years back (they still but now they disclose it so it’s fine). Lots of times the biggest ones that affect a ton of people can be a big dollar amount but so many users it ends up being tiny checks for each person who claims. I have seen some where the postage is more than the check is for. Gotta love lawyers…

Love Ice Cubes for Mastodon and Voyager for Lemmy. I’ve tried to use others besides wefwef/Voyager but after soooo many years using Apollo it just feels so comfy. Navigation, the font, the way things are organized and displayed. I’m a creature of habit. I am hoping more features are added like a solid text editor, add photos to comments, user profiles, messaging…

I probably should keep trying others and at least test them & leave good reviews so the feddiverse keeps building and apps can compete with other social medial bullshit.

………………………………….. but ……… um………….. shit you might be right

Did you know that beehaw doesn’t allow downvotes? I am currently waiting for a call back from the aclu. They will not get away with this.
