How is anybody supposed to keep up with so many forks?

It’s like eating at a fancy restaurant up in here.

lemmy.world is been long defederated with it (which means that you don’t see it) yet you continue to think this is a problem…

I’m on a backup account because instances running 0.19.1 aren’t federating properly so my main isn’t able to post. Not that it’s any of your business in the first place. Now take your bot spam instance, and your vote manipulating alts, and get lost.

Yep, Alien.top has over one million accounts alone and they’re all crossposting Reddit spam bot accounts.

More instances need to defederate from that spam instance. Because no matter how many people explain why the project isn’t actually helpful nor does it add real value to Lemmy the person behind it is utterly convinced he’s the smartest person in the fediverse and we all just need to learn to love his spam.

🙄 The day lemmygrad gets defederated from this instance can’t come soon enough.

They’re pretty good at arbitrarily raising prices.

I heard about this earlier but re-reading this headline made me smile all over again. I will simply never get tired of hearing about Verizon failing.

I’m suspicious of any tech writer that can’t get a feel for a platform in seven days, big ole scary/confusing federated servers or not, lemmy just isn’t nearly as confusing as some people want to make it out to be. Particularly if you’ve ever actually used reddit before. Frankly, after reading this article I’m not convinced he understands either platform in any meaningful way.

Yeah pretty much, they might as well say “we’ve decided to sack Jerry from the Social Media team” because this isn’t actually exiting twitter it’s more like reducing someone’s workload lol.

I hadn’t heard about it either but according to their blog post announcing it, it’s https://social.bbc

Apparently they’ll be running it for six months and then determining if it’s worth continuing to operate.

There will only be four remaining official ABC accounts: for news, sport, Chinese and the master ABC Australia account.

Somebody let me know when they actually leave twitter. This is a bullshit half measure.

Good, it’s the right thing to do. Russians shouldn’t even be allowed anywhere near international athletics until Putin is arrested and standing trial for war crimes at The Hague.

You sure about that one.

Yes. I believe the vast majority of parents since the beginning of the social media age simply never even considered the potential privacy issues at play when they filled their accounts with pictures of their kids. They were just proud parents sharing their lives with friends and family.

Just because I think it’s selfish and irresponsible does not mean I think the average parent was acting with malicious intent. Social media was brand new for everyone, I’m not going to judge someone too harshly for failing to understand that their social media activity over the years could undermine their children’s right to privacy.
