MeetInPotatoes , 11 months ago to fediverse in We have 2-3 months to compile a Threads block list

CMV: The people who want to receive data from Threads should just…make a freaking Threads account. The whole argument to connect with them at all is weird. It’s like recording a Disney movie to your DVR box and setting up streaming from your smart TV to your tablet so you can now enjoy the movie you recorded in bed…when you could’ve just downloaded the freaking Disney+ app.

It’s also (somehow) like when you’re already in shorts and a t-shirt but still a little warm and someone else wants to turn the A/C off cause they’re cold. They can put on more clothes and be totally comfy, I cannot (politely) take any more clothes off.

MeetInPotatoes , 11 months ago to fediverse in This might help explain the spectacular launch of Threads

It’s a conspiracy just in the sense that they are seemingly counting these towards their growth numbers. If they’re saying they have 20 million accounts, but they created 3/4 of them as placeholders, then no…they have 5 million accounts.

MeetInPotatoes , 11 months ago to fediverse in Does it feel like the fediverse is exclusively used by older tech nerds?

Reddit was where we were when we were younger tech nerds, so…yeah man.

I didn’t even know I was one of those 30 million users until you and others mentioned that people with Instagram accounts automatically have one.

Don’t forget to bring a towel!

Interesting, thanks for sharing!

This thread is full of children who think that because they don’t like something then neither should anyone else.

This is exactly you. You don’t like the idea of blocking Facebook and are being combative and douchey to anyone who disagrees. Your dislikes are in the toilet and you are as free to leave .world as anyone else.

Facebook is known for analyzing your contact list and trying to get as much data as they can on those people as well. You don’t have to make life easier for face-eating leopards.

It’s the same guy that’s being a trollish asshole up and down this post. Only their posts have been removed, and only their posts are catching a 6:1 or higher downvote-to-upvote ratio. Seems like they’re on somebody’s payroll honestly.

There were 4 questions and one of them was 6 minus 2. It was easier than convincing recaptcha that I’m not a robot.

Fuck you, recaptcha, there was definitely a motorcycle in that pic :)

For real, this troll is honestly trying to argue that Meta being a hostile company isn’t common knowledge.

MeetInPotatoes , 11 months ago to fediverse in Second largest Lemmy instance preemptively un-friends Facebook

Yeah, all these delusional people who know that Meta has earned its bad reputation. 🙄

It’s the scorpion and the frog, completely.

“Oh, man…who would’ve thought that the people who want to monetize everything and dominate any market they get into would not just be our friends this time?”

It’s almost like some people crave enshitification.

“Hey this decentralized stuff is really cool, let’s connect with the most gigantic corporate assholes who would absolutely centralize all of it if they could…you know, so we can grow! What could go wrong?”

LIke…what?

Facebook doesn’t give a shit about its users and treats them and their data as a crop to harvest. On Meta platforms, you’re the product. On the fediverse, you’re just another user, free to do what you want. Disgust is indeed an emotion, and I’m 100% fine with being disgusted with Meta.
