    Don’t even get me started. I’ve always hated Apple for this kind of stuff, and now they’re making Android even worse, piece by piece.

    And given that society is dependent on phones, we’re all fucked. I don’t know if a Linux phone can do much given how it’s mostly non capitalistic. I wish though. But adoption-wise I don’t know if it could be a contender anyway. I’m not well-versed in it, but I’m just assuming the worst since the world is falling apart right now and my hope gland needs surgery. 😭






  • Everybody kinda already said the obvious answers, but I’ll pop in to reiterate that my main reason was killing the API (because fuuuuuuck their shitty trash app filled with ads- or any and every app that has ads at all). I got here (Lemmy and piefed and mastodon)as part of the mass exodus that switched when the ax dropped on that.

    I had wanted to before that, but addictions are addictions. But killing the app I actually liked using (combined with the dev making a Lemmy version that was extremely similar), I just kinda rode the wave to the Fediverse.

    So like others, I still poke in when a search result points there, but I avoid it in general. Getting rid of the app will definitely help because it gets rid of the 1-tap access to shit.

    Given how terrible heaven is supposed to be, I feel like an afterlife in hell should just be a perpetual LAN party in your best friend’s basement, where no amount of Doritos, Mountain Dew, or Red Bull would be harmful, but would instead just be nourishment.

    Or swap in whatever junk food you like the most instead, but you know the feel I’m going for, I hope.








  • Tbf, “unalive” is only a thing because of TikTok, unless they’re pushing the same content to both platforms, when they have to go with the most restrictive version of their combined rules.

    And even then most of the problem is keeping it monetized, not necessarily the platforms during it down directly.

    But since videos are a career now, it’s a fairly effective ban on certain words.

    TikTok is way way waaaay too picky imo. Personally I don’t want anything censored at all, for any reason.

    Unless someone is going ham on a topic that’s triggers you into some PTSD situation, I don’t really think there’s a good argument for censorship to exist in any form at all.

    If some idiot is using language you don’t like you just stop listening to them and realize that when you’re scrolling through an non-curated source of content, you will hear idiots saying stupid shit.

    But the action taken on them shouldn’t be an effective gag, it should be just getting ignored. Once blocked and ignored enough, it’s basically a shadow ban. It wouldn’t be profitable for them to be offensive just for the sake of being offensive, but they shouldn’t be getting what basically amounts to fines just because they said someone "died"or got “killed”.

    That kinda shit is bonkers.
