, which seems to be totally unnecessary to allow, as the rest of the website seems to still function perfectly fine.
joshchandra@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Meta ends its fact-checking program in the US later today, replaces it with Community NotesEnglish1·3 days agoThere are attendees who are both younger and older than me (mid-30s). To be fair, the group already gets <10 people per event on average, so I don’t think I could risk the slice right now. If we grew to over double that, then maybe I could revisit the topic.

At least for me.

I run a free board game group on there called West Allis Board Games. Believe me, I would like to leave Meta and I offer everyone https://gamenight.host/@wa_bgn as a nonprofit alternative, but no one is on the latter and everyone is on the former. If you have any ideas on what I can do, I’m all
earseyes.I asked the attendees about how they’d feel if we moved to a different platform and they immediately said they don’t want to handle dozens of accounts scattered across different platforms. I also advertise the group on related subreddits and, most recently, the locally relevant /c/ equivalents here.
joshchandra@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?English1·5 days agoWhat about dentists, doctors, programmers, etc.?
I feel like this should be more about those involved in the upper echelons of megacorps.

joshchandra@midwest.socialto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is one moral you have that most people don't agree with?English4·5 days agoAnd mere sex is the way to do it? What about laws restricting social media from being as predatory and anxiety-/depression-contributing towards young people, as has been well-documented over the past, entire decade? As that other Lemmy user said, where is your scientific evidence that younger sex is the way beyond just your own opinion? Encouraging sex without solving the hypercapitalist issue is just pouring more gas on the dumpster fire, if anything.

joshchandra@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•Instagram Is Full Of Openly Available AI-Generated Child Abuse Content.English31·7 days agoI rather have them using AI to create it than having to go searching for real content.
A rebuttal to this that I’ve read is that the easy access may encourage people to dig into it and eventually want “the real thing”… but regardless, with it being FOSS, there’s no easy way to stop it anyway… It’s just a Pandora’s box that we can never close.
joshchandra@midwest.socialto Technology@lemmy.world•YouTube removes 'gender identity' from hate speech policyEnglish2·8 days agoConsider the decentralized family of https://trom.tf/ apps, such as https://search.trom.tf/ as a replacement (that’s the only one I use of their stuff so far… but may poke around more later).
joshchandra@midwest.socialOPto Technology@lemmy.world•AdNauseam is a uBlock fork that goes further: it actively attacks marketers by auto-clicking every ad before blockingEnglish2·8 days ago… until they keep having to dismiss people and go, “… huh.” This is a marathon we’re playing. You certainly don’t have to use it, but I think the philosophy makes sense, especially given how AdNauseam doesn’t click on acceptable ads that don’t track you.

I wish I talked to you years ago and will check these out, thanks, and I fully agree with your stance as well.

Hmm… how can I check?
