Lemmy is developed by tankies who deny anything bad china has ever done.

Kiwi browser hasn't been updated in a long time, I wouldn't recommend it to people anymore, security updates and all that.

People have always been saying duckduckgo is bad or worse than google but it's always worked fine for me, and still does.

NotAPenguin ,

In my experience the quality is just fine on duckduckgo.

It's a bit different because they aren't tailoring based on all the data google has about you but it's still good.

NotAPenguin ,

Almost like it's caused by broader societal issues

NotAPenguin ,

The Lemmy devs are tankies, they also deny chinese human rights violations and deny genocides.

NotAPenguin ,

It's not something I think, it's a fact.

I'm already on kbin :)

Did you open the article?

The author describes how they themselves don't use the big platforms anymore and how they've degraded.
They even talk about decentralization, mastodon, finding smaller nicer communities and how a healthier internet might look.

NotAPenguin ,

huh? this article isn't saying anything like that.

NotAPenguin ,

Again, the article isn't saying anything like that.

Flying is disastrous for the climate, it should be much more expensive and regulated.

Getting rid of hidden bullshit fees is good but we really don't want more people flying, we want less.

NotAPenguin ,

We definitely need more high speed trains

NotAPenguin ,

100% agree, we need to focus heavily on trains.

says in the article that firefox and safari aren't affected.

NotAPenguin ,

The article doesn't explain how that's the case at all.

Aren't all the big AI models trained on publicly available data?

I fucking hate this news headline rule of never using the word 'and', it just makes headlines worse and less readable.

NotAPenguin ,

I'm not a native speaker no and it was never covered in english class.

I know it's a news grammar thing and probably comes from wanting to save space in papers, I still find it very silly and much less readable.
I also find title case pretty annoying but I think I've become more used to it since youtube videos are titled that way too and I spend way too much time on youtube.

NotAPenguin ,

I'm not okay with ads anywhere at all under any conditions.

NotAPenguin ,

The Lemmy devs are tankies so of course the instance the devs run is gonna follow tankie ideology

NotAPenguin ,

Firefish is a way better experience than Mastodon, of course shares content; https://joinfirefish.org/

NotAPenguin ,

https://plasmatrap.com/ seems stable.

You can follow hashtags with antennas.

Federation should work just fine as far as I know.

Stop insulting people's looks just because they do something bad.

What if a great person who looks like this person happens to see this comment?

Stick to criticizing the bad things they've done.

NotAPenguin ,

People can do that too, are they gonna sue all people?

He broke the deal they made and stole the money which the museum gave him to incorporate in the artwork.

He was still paid the actual payment he was supposed to receive for making the artwork, they want the money which they lend him for the artwork back.

NotAPenguin ,

He broke the deal because that's not was agreed upon, he was supposed to make an artwork comparing incomes between rich and poor but just stole the money which was intended to be part of the artwork.

He was not hired to make "take the money and run"

NotAPenguin ,

It's theft and should be punished.

NotAPenguin ,

It is pretty weird, like "The reaction was one of massive support for all the affected mothers"..?

NotAPenguin ,

Who gives any kind of shits what a students hair looks like?

Why do these draconian dress codes still exist?

NotAPenguin ,

Stop shaming people's looks just because they did something bad.

What if a great person happens to look like this dude and reads this?
