the ideologically better option has reasons to be better. they are just longer term reasons that have to be sold and explored to it’s potential within our constraints. we have to show it’s good.
the fediverse itself is an experiment in this, and i say we are growing a nice community over here that could eventually bring more people in, or at least shift perception and use of the internet in a healthier direction. not unlike some of our predecessors.
if people are impressionable, they can be swayed. it just feels immovable because it takes time, but culture can and does change.
someone else had to convince them the landscape we are in was worth investing into, it was just not with words but fame, dopamine and a bit of cash. we could probably make freedom from corporations more compelling, because it is quite compelling.
we do have to collectively figure it out somehow though. a lot of current society’s problems trace back to social media.
and well, that responsibility is on our kinda people right now.
all i understand atm is your projection.
If you begin to question what is or is not a genocide as a laymen
…this you?
also, aren’t we on a thread about politically motivated censoring of an app?
oooh. so it’s just projection got it. just don’t hate on others just because you hate yourself. follow your own advice and get some therapy.
but hey, if you really wanna do something about it, you can always let go of your empty “anticorporatism” and actually learn from somewhere other than hollywood movies. there is hope.
you do have something against communism, you just don’t care to talk about without a veil of irony.
but then again, i actually live in one of your colonies, and i have the lived experience, so i take your deception more seriously.
i guess trump will eventually teach stubborn western fascists like yourself what genocide is truly like.
I get that you want to stand by the anticommunist propaganda, but jfc.
the fediverse has twitter instagram and tiktok analogues, which could theoretically offer these things (which i think is a normie problem, not just a young people problem)
i think they’d appreciate a freer platform for that since they seem to be leaving tiktok in droves.
psst hey kids. wanna try out some fediverse?
really on his way out. i bet they have to come in every week and clean the maggots out.
our politics in the last decade are full of this shit, more than usual. there are some delicious moments only brazil can provide you.
for the next shenanigans, tune in to the next episode where bolsonaro and his gang try to break out of prison.
that’d get my small cc bike filled up for my use.
remember plastoline? that method of relatively easily transforming plastic waste into gasoline.
good or not, worthwhile or not, i don’t think tech like this will take off when the oil industry makes so much money from drilling and fracking for that same gas.
i use the terminal for work, and some utilities i prefer over gui ones.
if my line of work didn’t require it, i don’t think it would be mandatory for me.
nowhere to be found in my country though
realistic is sometimes fun
plus their iron grip control on how devices are locked down to prevent just this type of competition.
yea. “can you?” is a more apt question for this headline
and like linux, we can figure those shortcomings out and slowly figure out how to solve them.
its ok for small comms to remain small, but something can bring the mainstream to better options, much like something brought them to the current mainstream over other niche and mainstream options in the first place.
there’s budding discussion about this on asklemmy atm.
