Meh, you’re just building an echo chamber. Everyone around is of the same opinion, everything against is downvoted to hell, sometimes bans are handed out.

And you are starting to believe you’re normal and you’re keeping your space clean of all the “assholes”. But instead you’re just way too far up your own ass most of the time.

Your downvotes don’t hurt. It’s just sad that this ambitious project that could’ve easily replaced reddit, turned into a circle-jerk. The content and opinion-diversity on everything that’s reachable from my current instance is approximately /r/antiwork. I could just go back and spend all my days browsing that one sub without any loss. But such pompous name “fediverse”.

You got nothing folks. Every community is about USA only and all the top posts are “trump bad”, “capitalism bad.” Like nothing else exists. You sabotaged yourselves. There’s no fediverse. There are 20-40k people chanting together “fuck trump, fuck musk, fuck capitalism”. On every instance, in every thread, on every topic.

And you know what, I agree with all three. But even to me you look pathetic. And as my multiple tests confirm, you do not accept any disagreement, and you cannot brin any rational argument to the table, you can only echo.

Fediverse: extremely USA-centric, extremely left and queer. Dissent is punished as hard as posting Winnie Pooh on TikTok.

That’s a far cry from how china suppresses protests. And really a small individual example. Overall there’s a clear freedom of expression and civil protest in the US. The same absolutely cannot be said about china.

True. Nonetheless, “women bad” memes aren’t a valid replacement. Please, kindly proceed to 9gag.com to find a community of like-minded individuals.

p.s. !europe@feddit.org seems to be safe, no amerians. And is somewhat active.

But shows you how a continent of at least 500mil pop, produces one half-functioning community, while NA with their 300 something mil, get a “fediverse”. (they’re so cute thinking it’s fediverse, while it’s all just US politics and only of a certain subset of their political “spectrum”, lol)

Unfortunately, there will be no one left on lemmy. Maybe a couple of Germans.

Europe-centric communities on reddit were niche, but existed. On lemmy they simply don’t exist.

Bob Ross gets a share of the price for selling your soul to Google. He’s a tool in corporate abuse of humanity. Otherwise he would’ve long time ago quit YouTube with a clear public statement.

Facebook is a product that cost billions to develop. It scaled so fast at some point, they developed a big data framework on top of MySQL, cuz refactoring wasn’t an option. Their tech stack is the funniest chimera out there. And it only happened because everyone loved it so much. Facebook costs billions per year to run. And you get it for free. I mean, you pay with your data, just like on YouTube.

Lemmy, you show as usual that you cannot even basic math. You’re not entitled to criticize capitalism until you learn how to count. You sound stupid.

People don’t understand that the way a backdoor is usually implemented is not going to be obviously saying “backdoor_here”, neither it will look like a some magic code loading a large string and unzipping it on the fly – that’s sus af. What you will see is some “play video” functionality that has a very subtle buffer overflow bug that’s also not trivially triggerable.

This already happened with WhatsApp.

Yeah, you get even more clouds.

Top 3 upvoted post on lemmy for me, since I blocked all political content.

Tells you everything about your average lemming. Basement dwellers. This place is a queer wanna-be commie 4chan in disguise.

You folks need to go touch some grass.

And this image is just a clever rehash of those 🤷

Again you’re wrong. It’s counted directly by the amount you watch and goes to the creators you watch.

Or, equivalently, pool all revenue, divide by watch time, get the same result.

You can verify this by constructing an excel table of 10 users (rows) and 3 channels (columns). Assign random % weights of “watch time” per user per channel. Assume a constant subscription fee of 1. Verify that a column_sum is the same as column_average*10, where 10 is the total platform revenue, as there are 10 users each paying 1.

You keep imagining some way how YT could get cheaper for you.

But in fact, ads are highly profitable, and if you buy a premium there’s a very transparent revenue share model. 70% of your money goes directly to the creators.

All your wishes are already fulfilled, you’re just poor and are trying to justify not paying with imagined arguments.

Based take.

Aren’t you, like, supposed to make sure the community is civilized and all?

So many words to explain how you literally have no clue about how the law works.

Ah, so when the other side wins lemmy is suddenly against peaceful transfer of power. Interesting.

Iron man 2 was filmed at SpaceX

From the article:

Back in 2016, Iron Man director Jon Favreau revealed that Musk had been a direct inspiration for their version of Tony Stark. Downey Jr even spent time with Musk to better understand what it would be like to walk in the shoes of a real-world tech mogul.
