Isn’t it just the economy of scale keeping lithium battery pricing this low? Sodium could be cheaper to produce if it reacher the same scale because it requires less rare materials.

Their mobile app is an APK file instead of a play store link. I dont’ see any servers besides the main Loops server so it’s not decentralized at all for now.

Upscrolled even mention this in their faq, stating that the current defederated options are not in a usable and scalable state yet. And keep in mind they started development about far before now, so back then there was nothing at all.

If Loops were finished and had multiple servers going it might have been a very attractive option for the current TikTok exodus. But it’s simply not done yet.

Can I watch cool videos of Palestinian resistance fighters blowing up Israeli tanks with RPG’s there?

It’s a very mixed bag. In 2026 I’d prefer everyone decided on a single uncensored Mastodon server and just yolo’d over there but somehow the masses are moved once again towards a centralized solution. And a rather rudimentary one too.

But at least they decided on something besides Twitter or Bluesky. Now it all depends on whether the new influx of users can organically keep going and growing, or whether there is not enough content and everyone will slowly move back to Twitter.

There is backing from TechForPalestine and other pro-Palestine collectives so I don’t suspect that it’s a Zionist op. Just some unfortunate tech choices. But in the end it’s the users that make a platform not the tech. And one thing I do like is that there is a big download button next to media

Disclaimer: currently Upscrolled is a centralized platform which is only usable through an Android or IOS app and requires an account. They plan to release a browser based site in around 6 months They do have smooth video playback and no noticeable censorship so far.

Because all other microblogs seem to ban pro-Palestine content. And not the superficial pro Palestine content but actual pro Palestine content.

No we’re saying the Twitter AI does have a lot of knowledge about Twitter. You can ask it to do it for any account and it makes a summary of their posts, their stance of Israel and a limitation score. Even accurately replying on how often their posts and comments are viewed.

And because the bot has been trained by Musk the bias of the bot can be shown in ways like this.

I don’t 't think you understand how their maker assigned biases work.

Try asking ChatGPT how many Israelis were killed by the IDF on oct7. See how well it “scraped”.

The most critical of supports

LLM’s don’t make typo’s like that so you answered your own stupid question.

“pro” tip: Whenever Ubuntu gives you a black screen it’s likely the GPU driver or desktop-environment which were borked.

A way to reach a terminal, is to switch to another session using ctrl+alt+F2.

From there you can run terminal commands to downgrade the GPU driver or reinstall the desktop environment.

It’s tragic that this is still such a common issue.

I asked for an instance without censorship not one which fits your ideology.

Know of any Mastodon instances which don’t believe the genocidal hegemony will be beaten by holding hands?

Trash

It’s heavily censored NeoLefteralism after all. This is why people keep using Twitter

Nice I’ll check it out. I see Qudsnen is posting on Mastodon now that’s pretty cool. Maybe it’s getting better there

Any good Mastodon instances which don’t severely limit political content (and have actual content)?

If it were hallucinations which it very well could be, it means the model has learned this bias somewhere. Indicating Grok has either been programmed to derank Palestine content, or Grok has learned it by himself (less likely).

It’s difficult to conceive the AI manually making this up for no reason, and doing it so consistently for multiple accounts so consistently when asked the same question.
