This is literally the answer lmao why are you getting downvoted.
Subscribed! Thanks for sharing. I have been considering creating a new reddit account to help spread the good word to the unsaved masses.
OP if you enjoy a fun weekend project, don’t go with a pi-hole. It literally only takes about 5 minutes. Also I recommend the blocklistproject lists https://blocklistproject.github.io/Lists/
Honestly curious what kind of content you believe requires less effort to post than an image macro?
Reddit mods have less power to remove unwanted speech than Lemmy admins do. If you are upset because mods would not let you say something in their communities, Lemmy is not going to be more accommodating for that.
If the article doesn’t define what “AI” means then the article doesn’t actually mean anything. Market research studying what people know about a vague and undefined term like “AI” can ultimately only produce undefined results.
It’s like asking people their feelings on “woke” or “god”. If everyone is talking about something different then nobody can have more or less understanding of it.
Activitypub accounts are portable actually. Lemmy is not as slick as Mastodon with this feature yet but will likely get there.
Lemmy’s design is fundamentally excellent to deal with bad actors, the whole point of ActivityPub/Federation is that moderation is much more effective while also preserving free speech. I’m not sure what that person on about.
I think Lemmy should be huge. Think about how many subreddits exist for every niche. It would be great if those places could exist free of corporate influence.
Federated platforms are significantly more effective than centralized ones at mitigating the influence of bad actors.
Is something finally going to federate with bluesky?
Surprised nobody’s mentioned this: https://reek.github.io/anti-adblock-killer/
Haha, Ulrich I noticed you on several threads the past few days correcting misinformation, thank you for your service.
In my book a single data point (a phone number) is not “vast amounts of metadata”. Again, I have never seen someone describing Signal as a “paragon of privacy and security”, Signal itself certainly does not say that (It’s presented as an improvement over SMS).
Signal is an excellent alternative if you’re looking for an E2E encrypted SMS replacement your grandmother can use.
Where did you read that they are collecting vast amounts of metadata? Not challenging your claim just that I have been trying to find more info and came up empty. Signal says “we don’t collect analytics or telemetry data” but that’s about it.
I’d be curious to hear your criticisms of Signal! While I haven’t seen anyone describing it as a “paragon of privacy and security” I do think it is a highly accessible SMS replacement that is also open source, end-to-end encrypted, and operated by a nonprofit.
From an e-waste perspective not having a battery is really cool. The article doesn’t mention this, but the plastic appears recycled too. I wonder how it types?
I’m surprised nobody has yet jail-broken Samsung and LG TVs and made a custom Tizen ROM
