This is just more “if a company isn’t growing faster than the S&P500 it’s literally dying” logic.

I have no love for Zuck or Meta but if reality means anything then their stock price is still ridiculously inflated.

Pardon my ignorance but isn’t that exactly what Inoreader and Feedly do?

What a scoop! thank goodness for the hard hitting in-depth investigative journalism of uh… smart… prix.

Sorry I need to backtrack for a moment. I don’t understand how you’re suggesting right-wing discussion need not be on the “Threadvisere as a whole”? How would that even be possible? It’s an open platform, instances don’t get to control other instances.

When you say the discussions "need not be here" do you mean c/fediverse@lemmy.world? Or all of discuss.online?

As it grows I think it will be much easier to justify a new person or instance in cutting off entire toxic areas and that will only cause it to grow faster.

Right now we all have to weigh the balance between activity and toxicity but eventually we shouldn’t need to make that calculation, we can have “high moderation” and “low moderation” versions of every topic.

Yeah that makes sense I admit that just looking at it makes me feel old and uncomfortable

It’s definitely not for me either but my potentially hot take is that normie communities like that are exactly what the fediverse needs to take off. As long as they can move everyone to the fediverse and not just their most toxic users.

It’s sad because he put so much effort into making evil malware that blocked out all the truth tellers but he can’t bring himself to use it because of some deeper disorder that doesn’t allow him to leave people alone on the internet

Not sure maybe

Confirmed. How many times do I have to confirm?

I made a blocklist but I don’t use it because I’m lonely and enjoy the harassment.

correct!

Yeah cuz if you did you’d be forced to drop the victim narrative you appear to be emotionally dependent on

How do you ping a location update? I’ve tried sending the hidden sms that’s supposed to do is but it only seems to work about 25% of the time, and I have to run the actual location check like 3-4 minutes later

i havent even looked at the blocklist tbh but my position is that insisting you have the right to force your speech upon someone else when they have made it extremely clear they wish to block you is just reprehensible behavior in my book. “No means no”! But it especially means no when someone is telling you to leave them alone like they did.

you are not being silenced. someone blocking you on the internet is not an attack on you, you are not a victim, and it does not give you the right to attack someone else

like i said if you want to choose to view that as evidence of secret conspiracy or whatever that’s totally fine with me, I don’t but also I’m not the one pretending im under attack because someone else on the internet doesn’t like me

people are allowed to block us and find us annoying! im sorry but it’s true. We can choose to let it bother us and go around wallowing in self pity, but most people dont want to be around someone like that so again the fact that you ended up blocked should not be a surprise.

that link looks very clear and posted in the pubic repo to me but yeah dude like i said if you want to imagine that someone else blocking you is somehow an attack then you certainly have that right but the only person you’re hurting is yourself

Edited for clarity

Yeah it’s not for me either, but I also believe that people have a right to not have other’s speech or behavior forced upon them, which is kind of exactly what ActivityPub was created to facilitate and what separates it from corporate platforms.

how mature

golly I wonder how you ended up on a blocklist lol
