The moment the first accusation is made public, it's not difficult to reiterate by someone else. I'll stick to known facts, and so far nothing convincing has surfaced.
The company might be terrible, but most of their buyers are normal people who either don't know what brands belong to them, or don't care enough to carefully investigate everything they buy. And those normal people are the ones the ads need to reach. If they leave twitter, what's the point of advertising there?
Hope it's not gonna be your last, plenty of people blink out unfortunately.
That would do everyone a favor at this point.
Yep. I quite enjoyed how lemigrad and lemmy.ml used to be the forerunners of lemmy and then quickly got kicked to the back because nobody in their right mind wants to interact with tankies.
Federation = replication of content across multiple servers for the sake of preservation and accessibility.
It does not equate to freedom of speech or freedom from censorship.
If you want an instance that allows just about everything, I repeat: Start your own, nobody is stopping you.
So he admitted to anything? That's the kind of update I was looking for, what I saw were just the allegations without any follow-up.
Unless you introduce another vehicle class that doesn't require the same comprehensive crash tests as a regular car. In China bicycles were the number one means of transport until like 20 years ago, so there were bike lanes in abundance, that have then been converted to e-bike lanes, usually with a divider to both the main road and sidewalk. Opening those up for those small cars was easy enough, so traffic flows pretty neatly. That is, totally chaotic, but without different vehicle types obstructing one another unless for major intersections.
Without censorship tools this place would be riddled with spam, porn, and disinformation bots, just like reddit at its peak.
What moderators use those tools for, is in their hands. If you don't like how certain instances or communities handle them, you can just start your own with minimal effort, that's the beauty of the fediverse.
I agree Pixelfed looks good, I'm just having a hard time actually finding content. Without any algorithm whatsoever, my feed is effectively blank.
Never used any sort of microblogging platform, so I'll skip mastodon and bluesky, just don't get the point.
