Preventing this issue doesn’t seem like a userscript issue (though that’s definitely a good start).I think the auto report function is severely needed; it’s happening everywhere. If the script can automatically block any user whose post it suppresses, it would be awesome.

But I think the issue is that we need to get support top-down on this.

Maybe on your instance - it’s your loss. But admins have a choice - defed from them and lose access to all those users and having actual content worth looking at, or federate with them and actually grow your network into something that has enough going on to make people interested. As it is, I use Threads right now. I strongly prefer it to Mastodon. Kbin comes close, but has less content to idly scroll through. If no Fediverse site I use supports Threads, I’ll keep on using it.

@Jezebelley3D That’s really cool

That’s fine and all, but I have one question. Why would you want to want to revisit the biggest video game scam in recent memory?

Isn’t that the core premise of things like Elvira, Svengoolie, and MST3K?

I’m not at my computer, so please excuse any mobile issues. I’m in favor of the move, because it will help to simultaneously connect and decentralize communications across the platforms. Say what you will about Facebook (you’re probably right), but if they’re that bad, then it seems logical to me to connect to their federated service even more aggressively.

The more we push our content (and by extension the Fediverse content that kbin aggregates), the less impact their algorithm can have. The more we go out of the way to expose their content, the harder we make it them to curate/censor/suppress any voices. And if, when comparing two Fediverse instances or softwares, we find that what’s been pushed to them is different, we the users can call it out to news organizations (or make it public ourselves).

And yes, I know I’m making the arguments for supporting private companies in adopting open-source. It’s about being able to audit what companies we don’t trust are doing.

In addition to that, I’m currently a Threads user. Anecdotally, there’s a lot of wholesome content on there that I appreciate, and what limited advertising is there is nowhere near as obtrusive as Reddit or the main Facebook platform.

Pitchfork being on an alternative social platform just feels right to me. So I say, go for it.

Well, if he doesn’t care, then I just might bother the time and effort to pirate it. But then again, a dismissive creator who’s working with Markiplier isn’t someone I’m really keen on supporting in the first place. I wish him luck, and that he is approximately as successful as I am in financial terms.

Because Threads presents an opportunity to grow the community on ActivityPub services, and because the Fediverse presents the opportunity to extend the community I’m involved in that’s on Threads right now. My hope is that if that group respects what the Fediverse offers, they will also start sharing the podcast on PeerTube

My hand is raised.

I find it interesting that they didn’t suggest the possibility that came to my mind first: cannibalization. If it was small to start with, but in clearing the neighborhood, also was volcanic enough to absorb smaller planetoids, it might have absorbed them and grown.

I’m getting back into Digimon World: Dawn recently.

kbin finally has notifications not throwing an error every time I try to check them, so that much is nice now. I’ve actually had no problems with the Reddit software on my phone, and I’ve unsubbed from most of the communities I was part of there which moved across to lemmy. That choice has really trimmed my experience down to a more focused one nicely. I’ve also gotten done turning federation back off as I want it to be, and my user block list here is getting pretty long, blocking out the spammers that come across my feed.

Of course, because kbin is still one of the smallest sites related to the ActivityPub protocol, there’s limited content here compared to Reddit, Then again, there’s also less content on all of PeerTube (let alone a single site) than there is on YouTube, and I’d take a shot at saying that even Threads has the largest Mastodon community beat by a country mile, let alone what Twitter still has.

So basically, I guess I’d say I’m not a refugee, I’m just doing as I did with Facebook when it first launched after MySpace and Friendster - keeping my options open and looking around.

How many millions are you paying them? Because unless you’re paying into the business tier or an SLA, you are not their customer.

I’ve been finding Brave a better solution.

Funny, they’re actively making it worse any time I try to lower my shields too. They’ve changed, very recently, from a video hosting platform with ads, to an advertising platform with some minor videos in between.

@CyberCatBytes Funny, every time I’ve tried Linux, it’s ended in tears, and installing FreeDOS to run Format ., because Linux doesn’t even have that command.

I think it’s time to shut it down, hard. That’s the start of something that will not end well for human beings.

Always good to see Netflix lose a little money. Hopefully it’s the beginning of a pattern and streaming services start having to shut down.

So you want to have the Side colonies from Gundam?
