Not wanting to be dependent on big tech isn’t uniquely a leftist ideal

Are you sure? most people working on projects against big tech tend to be very left leaning. The conservatives love using the appeal of authority to silence minorities and voices they don’t like.

Right wing creeping up to take control of these spaces doesn’t make it their ideal.

I could be wrong. Can you name some popular projects against big tech by conservatives?

Talking and actually sticking with those ideals are totally different things. What they do is called selective enforcement.

Maybe you should try joining that instance and see how far the “conservative freedom” goes?

Lemmy is plenty fast, just the UI is seriously bloated. Using lemmy api on a third party app is a smooth af.

This is one of the reasons using PieFed on mobile feels as good if not better than native apps. The page loads super fast.

If you’re using piefed.social or any of the other popular piefed instances, they’re using CloudFlare. So ya, it’ll be faster because they have CDN all across the globe. Also your login credentials and tracking data will be sent to a cloudflare server without user knowledge.

So ya, I’d rather have a few milliseconds delay and avoid all that tracking and MITM. Thanks though.

GrapheneOS with their real phone cant come soon enough. These big tech companies have ruined any sense of ownership.

Getting out of reddit and US centric socials/media does remove a lot of trash you don’t need to know from the feed. You can’t avoid some, when they get through, and filters don’t catch them, but it’s significantly better.

Lemmy and Mastodon FTW.

Tasks.org also works great with CalDAV. On f-droid as well.

Mecha Hitler joing hands with Fascist MAGA. Perfect combo

They seem to block archive.today but not archive.org.

No that’s alphanet

This study feels like meat industry propping up “plant also have feeling” rhetoric so that meat lovers can use it as some sort of gotcha against vegan activists.

No shit sherlock. Everyone has a different tolerance, sensitivity and trigger points for all kind of problems to appear out of nowhere. But this advice is bullshit.

Having hard facts and learning how it affects the body goes further than “enjoy life, my granny smoked till she was 100 years old, I should be fine with 1 cigarette a day” kind of thinking.

If you ever have any accident by accident, your chances of survival or recovery is diminished for your use of harmful substances. Everything is perfect until it isn’t.You’re supposed to use science as a basis of making things more manageable when dealing with uncertainty. But, you’ll then blame the doctors, saying how you had no any other problems with you and how healthy you were.

You’re the kind of people in hospitals who say “I’ve never had a pill in my life and all these doctors are crazy psychopaths that say crazy things to make money off of me”

Reddit seems to be leaking.

The article is very enthusiastic about explaining why it shouldn’t work, but completely glosses over the fact that it has worked

This post was originally written for ycombinator “Hacker” News which is vehemently against people hacking things together for greater good, and more importantly for free.

It’s more of a corporate PR release site and if you aren’t known by the “community”, calling out solutions they can’t profit off of brings all the tech-bros to the yard for engagement.

I usually follow tags than accounts. For users like me, this is just going to duplicate content all over the place.

What’s MOL?

Seems like just git with a mailing list and a mirror on github.

Patches should be submitted to the ffmpeg-devel mailing list using git format-patch or git send-email. Github pull requests should be avoided because they are not part of our review process and will be ignored.

Ok, I need to scream into the void.

We’ve got just the thing for you.

Would be nice to know the minimum spec required to run this?

I want my social media botnets to promote me everywhere I go. Thanks for open sourcing this.

Ikr, I was losing hope and eyeing to switch to piefed.

Now, onto the managing the post duplication problem, pleaseee.

Having to read same news title again and again unless you block the less popular community or instance is time consuming and annoying.

People might remember Tweepsmap. It was specifically for Twitter but after the API debacle they rebranded the fedica.
