More like climate change is
Seriously how the fuck does half the world think Russia are the good guys.
(If the FBI sees this I’m joking)
Yeah. Would have been better if they just let a crisis that disproportionately affect poor people unfold /s
Not only that. But Ukraine managed to capture in a month the same amount of land Russia has captured in a year (via Kursk)
Yep. See Crimea.
Oh god it looks like I had a stroke at the end of that sentence ahhaha
Even though crisis hotlines are common, they have not been well studied for efficacy.
Somewhat related, but I think suicide hotlines can be a big problem if they are understaffed. I feel like in my country they are just there to check a box. I’ve had two suicidal crises, both times I called the hotline, waited 20+ minutes and gave up. It made me feel even worse and more lost.
Except Tom@TomHanks.com will come up first because they will surely have the most fooloerrs.
I had noticed this trend in the past few years. And recently I got a completely new device so I thought that’s a perfect blank slate, without all the who knows how trackable device stuff and cache and everything to test it on, so I set up just vpn on my current location, windscribe VPN; and got those results. But I get similar ones without VPN too.
Again, correct, but you still custimise your feed to large extent by following stuff.
Although you can follow people on tiktok and stuff, your feed is almost entirely predetermined by how you interact with content, ie. how long you stayed on certain videos, what you liked, what made you close the app, etc.
Never claimed it was the cause, but from my perspective, and from the trends I’m noticing, it seems to be far more prevalent there.
I don’t get bombarded with that stuff if I create a new account on basically any other service but those.
I’m worried that the hole is getting bigger and bigger, and it’s becoming almost normal for young kids to fall into it.
My older brother works at a middle school. Every year, they do mock elections to teach kids about voting. He told me over the past decade, it’s gone from kids choosing the green party 75% (I’m in Switzerland btw), to it being 50% the far right party and the rest split between all the others.
You’re completely right. But somehow, I feel like it’s mostly escapable on most formats, except the short form video type one, as you rely entirely on an algorithm.
ah cheers. Just making sure. I can’t see bios since I use voyager.
I find its a pretty good parody account. I’ve I come to look forward to read about ridiculous lobster comparisons when stumbling upon one of their comments.
Are you the OG Blaze? Did you move to feddit?
Good comment.
More likely twitter users.
And yes it’s corporate which is less good than mastodon.
But it is add-free, has a working algorithm, is feature rich, is open-source, lets you self-host etc. Full defederation is coming soon too.
Having used both bluesky (self hosted) and mastodon. The experience is simply far better on bluesky.
Unlike lemmy vs reddit. Where (except for active user count) there isn’t really a tradeoff. Lemmy is simply far better.
