tf? You mean to tell me that there’s something billies can’t money their way out of? I’m temporarily impressed, right up until they do that, too.

I grew up in it, too, and now I’m a basic LaVeyan Satanist. gg authoritarian regressives!

Well done, friend!

Wow, who shit in that guy’s omelette

Goddamn, that was a very tough read.

It just doesn’t fucking stop with these degenerates!

jesus fucking christ. The only thing that’s ever been connected to either the numbers 616 or 666… is Christians irrational terror of them, all induced by their book. GJ.

So I can claim that over a million people on both platforms run their due diligence and actually click on cited sources, disregard your demand for proof, and you still won’t have done anything to prove me wrong? Do I have that correct?

I sort by new.

“Eroxon! Apply directly to the dickhead!”

“Oh cupcake” lmao You’re very welcome, and do take care!

That still wouldn’t prove me wrong, there could be users the sources don’t cover.

If I said over a million users on each platform, what would you do to prove me wrong?

Is your argument that “There’s misinformation everywhere, so I should just get it from an algorithm that’s so good that I only really see what I want to see.”?

Because if so, you’ve already ended your argument, whether you realize it or not.

They stated their point in the last sentence: “Its algorithm makes it really easy to fall into an echo chamber.” Did you read their comment?

Yeah, mainly for 18-24 year old demographic, most of whom don’t seem to care much about the news, anyway. Interest in news generally seems to increase with age, though neither of these two statements is strictly true.

I agree that there’s a currenct hard push for massive enshittification, so I think we’d better be ready and able to 1) embrace federation, 2) advance it to a degree that BigTech can’t keep up with (FTL speed), 3) pay actual money for it ourselves to ourselves, and 4) do what we must to enshrine anti-enshittification systems into the fabric of this new direction of online society.

Reminds me a bit of an old-school shell for windows that was called GeoShell. That was a long time ago.
