I think streaming makes music a “throwaway” product.

I well and fondly remember when a new album of my favorite band came out and I met friends at the music store to listen and buy it from my saved pocket money. And I still habe most of these albums… and I still listen to them… all though they live on my music players hdd permanently

As much as I hate to say it, the “migration” wasn’t as large as some people would have thoughts it’s going to be. Hoomans. Stoopid hoomans.

It definitely does yea. I haven’t been on plebbit outside of a random search result for something I could not find otherwise.

What do you think is the best solution to having the same named communities on different instances?

We should implement this as whenever I wish to browse (for example) [email protected] I have to go to there, and whenever I wish to browse [email protected] I have to go there. Would it be possible to implement it in kbin/lemmy's code to make it easier to browse all?

Didn’t plebbit suffer from the same issue in the beginning? As far as I remember it kind of self-resolved itself back then an people migrating from /whatever to /thisIsTheBiggerWhatever.

I guess it could be handy to encourage mods to keep an eye on it and at some point have their community vote\decide if they want to “merge” or something.

How to de-radicalize my mom's youtube algorithm?

She’s almost 70, spend all day watching q-anon style of videos (but in Spanish) and every day she’s anguished about something new, last week was asking us to start digging a nuclear shelter because Russia was dropped a nuclear bomb over Ukraine. Before that she was begging us to install reinforced doors because the...

It’s not going to be easy. most likely she’ll be exposed to this shit elsewhere too, not only on youtube. fully reset the browser in ANY case. delete history, cookies, everything.

besides that, I see multiple options. you can consider them all or in various combinations

I’m not questioning what’s right and wrong or if this even changes someone’s opinion.

It’s merely a technical approach that can somewhat work until it’s filled up with the same crap again in a few weeks.

The person got there once - it’ll likely happen again. But combining this with conversation and actual facts, can be a start.

I’m almost certain that is not conform with GDPR in europe to pre-enable checkboxes.

I’m no lawyer but I read it that way and will probably be disappointed.

I agree, but whatever they say … who do I trust? I’m paranoid enough to trust only my own network capture.
