Fucking hell lmao y’all need to go back to reddit this is straight up high school drama behaviour.

Grow up, I’m serious. Of course you’re gonna get banned for brigading into a community and going “muh tiannamen square???” like that meme hasn’t been run into the fucking ground already.

Make a new community on a new instance, it really is that simple! and if people have issues with the moderation on lemmy.ml (they clearly don’t, beyond a few people who demand everyone listens to their concern trolling) then they’ll move, but otherwise you’re gonna have to accept that people really don’t give a rats ass about the united states foreign ministry and its opinions.

There’s also all of these communities on Reddit if you’re truly unhappy that the volunteer owned and run social media you signed up for isn’t being astroturfed with US-Israeli state press releases.

Join literally any other community if you’re upset at their moderation, which again is only upsetting y’all because it doesn’t align to Reddit and the US state department

go back to reddit if you want to live in the bubble of “America does nothing wrong”

Or they found out about his time at Epstein Island and didn’t wanna fuck w that

Welcome to modern media, where nothing is new and everything is a “reboot” or a “sequel”. you’ll get regurgitated slop passed between a few media conglomerates and if anything actually ends up decent it’ll be canned and wiped from the earth before anyone can see it.

did the soldiers condemn Hamas?

Just because you dont like their content doesn’t mean it’s spam. Just filter hexbear posts and grow some thicker skin

Lmao i get the same whenever i wanna launch discord. Even if you do Discor it’ll show discover first for a second so youll launch it twice before learning to wait :)

If I’m looking up something general, like some actor or tv show, then DDG is perfect. If im troubleshooting some weird software issue then i find it doesnt always list as many results, as if it hasnt indexed as many sites.

DDG at least now means I can search random shit without it suddenly being inserted into my social media algorithms like some kind of psychological torture.

Google used to list sites with backlinks highly, it was their first ever search algorithm iirc. Once people learned you could game that by planting useless backlinks, Google realised it was a bad idea.

Somehow, they’ve reinvented this all over again with parasite SEO that fundamentally works the same way. All they did was add some “domain ranking”. Now, unreliable-but-popular sites coughredditcough will always score highly regardless of quality, because Google deemed them superior.

Yup agreed.

China, like the US, hasn’t got the means nor the motive to track billions of people abroad; they both have a hard enough time keeping tabs on people domestically despite years of expanding their respective police states.

Of course there’s always the propaganda and soft power stuff but again, every single state is doing this, but the insinuation is that Europe or the anglosphere in general are the only propaganda-free places on Earth!

Willing to bet money this was posted on hardware that actually does have backdoors to some 3 letter agency in the US, to much more personal consequence than any metaphorical Chinese government spyware

With reddit getting worse, these kinds of vapid “i only post snark about [insert US designated enemy]” users are gonna be all the more common.

When you leave reddit, a corporatised and astroturfed bot farm you’re gonna get less liberal and right wing stuff that only existed to make money or exert political influence.

If you’re really upset by it you can filter lemmy.ml which is gonna be the main source of left wing posting.

This shit isnt new, companies have been exploiting reddit to push products as if they’re real people for years. The “put reddit after your search to fix it!!!” thing was a massive boon for these shady advertisers who no doubt benefitted from random people assuming product placements were genuine.

Love how companies can decide who has to supervise their car’s automated driving and not an actual safety authority. Absolutely nuts.

One of the most hated features of Windows 10 and they removed it just to add it back later lmao. They deffo had this planned all along and knew it would hurt their already terrible upgrade rates if they added it from the start
