This is one of the reasons why I am gradually untying myself from the Apple ecosystem, and all of propriety/big tech; especially US based.
When push comes to shove capitalism will not resist fascism. They will ignore all stated virtue signals and choose profits.
Choosing E2E encrypted FOSS products, that are interoperable with FOSS standards/formats and do not lock you into walled gardens, are the only viable long term solution.
Point me to any article by the established mainstream media, and I’ll point you to the spin.
Great work! I’ve always considered lemmy to be an interim solution as it doesn’t resolve the core issue of mod centralization. How does your solution differ compare to something like nostr, which is more decentralized than ActivityPub, and not P2P, but also seems to eliminate the mod issue and enable “direct” subscribing to users.
Would your goal be to shard/raid data across IPFS nodes at scale? If not, what would the local nodes size be with millions of users and years of history (e.g. Reddit’s scale)?
My next hope is a fully decentralized and distributed internet archive + piratebay using IPFS over I2P.
Your comment came across as a “china bad” “just asking questions” bad faith-er. Sometimes there is a need to be a dick about it.
You just waiting around to be fed information, or a troll? These are publicly listed in every developed economy, for every make and model sold.

Because the entire western world are essentially corporate owned plutocracies masquerading as “democracies”.
In capitalism you vote with your wallet. The individuals with the greatest wealth, and those who control the wealthiest corporations, get the most votes. It’s as simple as that. Sure intelligence, social dynamics, and psychology play a part, but nothing plays as bigger part as capital. Democracy can’t exist with massive wealth inequality or individuals/orgs able to buy politicians, parties, or elections (e.g. billionaires).
The sites age restriction popup seems to break Voyager and Firefox. Just redirects back. Try a different browser.
Sometimes VPN DNS blockers can cause similar issues too. Welcome to the modern internet where nothing “just works” and shit “just breaks” because of a dozen layers of corporate fuckery.
Don’t worry. The corporate plutocracy guarantees these funds would’ve never benefited the American people either way.
Turns out the real terrorists were the fascists we made along the way…

It was the simplest/cheapest form of 2FA to implement. Grandma will never understand how to setup TOTP.
Capitalism requires regulations, otherwise it will ALWAYS do what is cheapest or most profitable, regardless of how dangerous or destructive.
The NSA already has your social map from Apple, Google, Facebook/whatsapp, plus a hundred other sources you’ve given access to your contacts in the past decade.
Even if you’ve never used any of those, or given any app access to your contacts, 99% of your contacts have.
Good. He should never be fucking welcome at Auschwitz. Netanyahu spits on their graves every day of his existence.
He, and Israel, are among the worst things to happen to Judaism in modern history. They represent everything wrong with humanity — the abused becoming the abuser, and continuing the cycle of terror, horror, suffering, and violence; all for the benefit of themselves, their own mental illnesses, greed, narcissism, and psychopathy.

The fossil fuel oligarchy would prefer to give all mammals on Earth emphysema than stop burning fossils, and do it for 10x the price.
The US is an active participant, making hundreds of billions in weapons sales to perform the genocide. Without US support and weapons, there may have been no genocide.
Enshittification guarantees a near 100% chance they’ll do it eventually, so you’re better off preemptively moving to an alternative sooner that later.
Yes please
It seems like the only thing which could stop them from screwing consumers is hard limits on the profit margins they can charge.
Replace “meta” will “all of big tech and surveillance capitalism” and I agree.
