1·17 days agoSo far we only have a corpo fedi-twitter in form of Threads. In that case non-corpo instance user has to specifically follow someone before their content is federated so that sounds like a bit overblown issue.
That’s why I keep saying it’s pointless to defederate corpos. They’ll just scrape everything before you notice.
2·24 days agoI’ve been enjoying it a lot, especially moving from music videos to YouTube videos. I wonder if people are confused because they didn’t watch the movie that explains why Beavis & Butthead are in the present time and what’s up with old and space versions of B&B. I thought it was quite clever.
I was among reddit refugees a year ago and it took me a moment to notice what was going on ml and their communities were more significant in comparison to what we have today.
One of the reasons I’m on sopuli.xyz now is that it was one of the first reasonably big instances to defederate hexbear outright. Hesitance and outright hostility to defederate it from some instance admins was also worrying.
2·1 month agoLemmy now is in many ways already the same as reddit is today when you consider social dynamics. This is mostly due to how all of social media using traditional formulas devolved into competition in unproductive cynicism.
Check out Tildes if you want to see how reddit was back then, it’s the closest thing.
Not using reddit pretty much guarantees it.
6·2 months agoThose caps are a way to cull the weakest parts of society. I too have hurt my dick on them but have learned to deal with them.
64·2 months agoHighly misleading. Samsung Next, a Samsung VC firm closed Israel offices but will keep investing in Israel.
This appears to be original source from a month ago: https://www.calcalistech.com/ctechnews/article/by1p82me0
Today, I am sharing the news that Samsung Next has made necessary organizational changes in the Tel Aviv office to consolidate its activities. Israel remains an attractive market for Samsung Next, and the existing relationships with partners and portfolio companies will remain unchanged.
Oh no, not the Facebook! I can’t even imagine the world without all the good that it does!
Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat, worrying that I don’t see as many ads as the Yanks do.
If you’re after moderate right flavored discussion I sympathize but you’ll have trouble finding it as the broader right has been consumed by alt right and far right. If your point is that those viewpoints specifically are missing from Lemmy then I’d say it’s a good riddance. I just wish Lemmy was as hard on some immature leftie takes.
At their scale and cost optimization it’s likely one of the few remaining holes to plug. I wouldn’t underestimate how many people try to block YouTube ads which adds up quickly. Whatever the benefit is from allowing people to keep draining their resources, it probably doesn’t outweigh benefits in the non-0% interest rate environment. Their monopoly is also nowhere near threatened and their biggest competitor could be banned in the US.
Where will you go?
Where will creators go to get those viewers back? TikTok?
Making you leave is their point since you cost them money.
Sync across devices at free tier which is the main thing. You pay by having access to things like real-time updates, filters, summaries etc. I don’t keep a vps these days and I have a preferred client that’s limited to commercial solutions.
- YouTube Premium
- Apple One Family (Music, TV+, iCloud, Arcade)
- HBO Max (best value for high quality content but Apple is very close these days)
- Prime (barely use it but it’s $12/yr here)
- Game Pass Ultimate
- Usenet Farm, couple of odd blocks and indexers
- Carrot Weather
Considering paying for RSS provider but they all seem overpriced for what they do above Feedly free tier.
There’s no real harm in that unless they spam, at which point those accounts can be banned which shouldn’t overwhelm moderators.
