Goodbye, Reddit, for good. My requested data is ready for download.
Ei congrats!
Umabot halos dalawang linggo simula nag-request ako.
wow, mabilis ah~ lol!
And di ko rin akalaing mag-proprocess sila ng request kahit na di ka taga-EU or California
Good morning guys, I don’t have Facebook anymore so just wanna ask if Threads and Egg Party(which PaoLUL played) is popular right now?
Threads is becoming popular among users because of Twitter’s reading limits implemented by Musk. However, there are other users switching to alternatives like Blue Sky and Mastodon.
I decided to deactivate my Threads account. Yes, I know it’s still there and I can’t delete it. But at least it’s away from public view.
Nakakairita how the influencers/celebrities inorganically generate engagement by posting dumb questions… which then gets recommended to me. Balik Mastodon na lang ako where it’s peace and quiet.
On the fence with deactivating threads, as (thankfully) influencers haven’t spilled over their junk content threads onto mine.
But with the fediverse coming extremely close to threads, i might deactivate soon without even so much of a “hello who’s there” post on threads lmao
Meta’s ‘friendly’ Threads collides with unfriendly internet
“If an account or server, or if we find many accounts from a particular server, is found violating our rules then they would be blocked from accessing Threads, meaning that server’s content would no longer appear on Threads and vice versa,” she said.
“With federation, the metadata that big platforms use to tie accounts to a single actor or detect abusive behavior at scale aren’t available,” said Stamos. “This is going to make stopping spammers, troll farms, and economically driven abusers much harder.”
I like how Meta (and an ex-Meta) is framing interoperability with the fediverse that they are the ones that’s potentially going to be the problem, lol.
Surprised to see some activity on our Raddle sister community, albeit from non-PH posters that were amused by the MMDA’s choice for an acronym. 😆
At least it’s not about MILF, again. 😂
Funny thing is, the next article I posted was about the MILF, completely unaware that it followed the MMDA one.
Ah. HAHAHAHAHAH! No one’s willing to make that joke, huh?
Edit:
Nvm. Someone actually made the joke:
The MMDA article and now a MILF article? I’m starting to think CNN’s Filipino branch is trolling us with their choice of acronyms.
So Angat Dam is reaching critical levels with El Niño just around the corner.
Time to do the John Lloyd-Sarah Geronimo rain dance and let all the offkey singers belt out their greatest hits.
I sometimes wonder if desalination is a viable solution to our water problems.
But then again, it might be more cost-effective to just build more dams to store water during the rainy season.
I’m not that educated on the subject, but last I’ve read (sparse and a long time ago), is that these plants cost a fuck-ton of money. We’ll see how it goes. Now that you mention it, might as well watch a docu on this.
TBH, the only reason it’s floating about the top of my head is because I’ve recently watched a vid by Practical Engineering on it.

Oh, it’s my time to shinemic test, mic test

It seems many of my workmates have resigned for greener pastures. Parang gusto ko nang mag-resign sa current ko dahil mababa yung binigay na salary increase recently. I’ve been looking for other jobs sa ibang companies, pero not sure kung saan ang better. Baka i-lowball nila ako sa offer hehehe
Hi, from
lemmy.ml
, a socialist planet, they say. lolNormal ba na agawan ng isang 13 yr old na agawan at itago ang mga laruan ng 2 yr old? Pag may bagong toy kasi ung kapatid nya, sinisira, tinatago o naagaw nung kapatid nyang 13 yr old.
Ah, oh. You need to give the talk. If you can talk to your thirteen year old in a way na hinde accusatory or pagalit.
Is is possible that she/he/they need attention, and maybe talk it out?
No amount of #copaganda can change my #mind.
I am not sure if I should be doing this, but hell…
For the handful of us who’ve moved (temporarily or otherwise) to lemm.ee, there’s currently a consultation going on about defederation from Meta’s Threads. Upvoting the post means you’re in favor of defederation.
EDIT:
I was wrong in calling that thread a vote. Changed “there’s currently a vote going on about defederation…” to “there’s currently about a consultation going on about defederation”. At any rate, it’s not a vote.
Lemmy ML just put the hammer down and said kthxbye to threads link
Supporting lemm.ee’s decision. Big companies rarely do good when invited into independent spaces.
I missed this part, and I was wrong in calling it a “vote”:
… Facebook has a built-in financial incentive to break our rules. ActivityPub has no protections against advertising, so it’s likely we will end up having to eventually defederate from Threads just for this reason alone.
… While personally I feel that any theoretical pros are by far outweighed by cons, I do want to use this opportunity to see how much of the community disagrees with me. I am not intending to run this instance as a democracy (sorry if anybody is disappointed by that), but I would still like to have a clear picture of user feedback for potentially major decisions such as this one.
But yeah, I support lemm.ee’s decision as well.
I am not intending to run this instance as a democracy.
Points for honesty though. Glad I have a .ee account. .world is sorta “on the way but not quite yet there” fucked.
already upvoted because meta can stay where it is, it doesn’t need to mix with my lemmy instance
I really hope lemmy.world follows suit, but given the statement lemmy.world admins made, it’s still up in the air, if ever.
Question is, what exactly constitutes as “see” in their wait-and-see approach? By the time you realize anything nefarious, it’s already too late.
I still stand by what I said yesterday about how Lemmy.world’s stance is a lot better than Mastodon.social’s stance. However, it’s kind of a “at least they’re not blatantly singing the praises of Meta joining the Fediverse,” which is not a terribly high bar to clear. Also, that at the very least they paid a lip service to “defederation when needed.”
But when it really counts? I am not terribly sure Lemmy.world will actually do anything (hence, me tacking that 'if ever" part in the end). And as you’ve rightfully pointed out–even if they do something, it might already be too late.
I’m really not used to working on my supposed day off, I’m feeling so lazy and unproductive at work right now. And I’m not particularly motivated to work on a good day lol.
Rest and recreation, karapatan mo yan. Do it, spend a day doing nothing. Its so fun!
