Speaking of dullness why isn’t there a like, comment or retweet counter? Just started trying to check out Mastodon.

They have 2 million active users supposedly, 10 times bigger than Lemmy.

Doesn’t this just mean they’ll make their bot accounts under a more organic/random timeline instead of linearly? The only way it seems you identified it is by the linear nature of the signups.

It’ll change if it gets popular, not everything can have an ultra unique name

Pfft, I’m horny on main 24/7 baby

“Twitter has two important advantages over other social media platforms,” Haqqani said in an English post on Twitter. “The first privilege is the freedom of speech.

I know it’s the Taliban but I cannot believe how braindead they are. They don’t even remember that they’re so anti free speech, they’ll hunt down and kill dissidents especially women who have the guts to get an education.

Excellent sleuthing

I have a hard time believing that this announcement is just a straight up lie. If they don’t have an actual working prototype, regardless of scale costs that they may be ignoring, wouldn’t they be open to a stakeholder suit for misleading the investors?

If you view reddit in incognito or on a VPN, the front page absolutely, 100 percent has the most hard far left slant possible. Half the front page posts are from whitepeopletwitter which has the collective personality of a meth-ed up AOC crossed with Stalin

Well uhh, new to me. Felt new in 2012 🤷

That’s a good thing, don’t fear it

Should we make a /c/science community and discuss the latest developments?? 😂

There can only be so many people with impressive achievements in a world of 8 billion people that deserves to be recorded in the history books. And then you should think about the millions and millions of people lost to history and prehistory (pre writing) period that have left this world with barely a trace of even the city that they and thousands of their community occupied. So many people completely and totally lost to time.

When I think about it like that, I realize it’s my ego making me feel bad for not “accomplishing” something when there’s so few of us who get to alter the thread of civilization.

Filing this under my increasingly long list on reasons why to never record personal information in any messaging or social media app except signal

Wasn’t there strong evidence Facebook has a built-in backdoor to their encryption?

Lol nice, loving these new domains

I got banned for wrong-think (essentially talking back to a sub mod) and it greatly improved my mental health not being able to call out the absolutely driveling imbeciles that populate reddit. It just made me not care anymore.

And yes reddit admins will ban you if you respond to sub mods to complain

It doesn’t help our adoption that supposedly pro-fediverse people are purposefully not recommending Lemmy on Mastodon posts because they don’t like a community or some developer that works on lemmy

Where did they go?
