Good. Now, extending this logic, if I have ZERO WATCH HISTORY of shorts videos on my account, then... STOP CLOGGING MY SUBSCRIPTION FEED WITH SHORTS!!!!!!!!!
Anyone have an idea of how much of this is "the EPA" versus vestiges of the virus that trump/pruit were as they purposefully broke agencies like this? How much of that poison remains in the org today?
Oh man... this takes me back.
My grandpa used to always say to us kids, "I'm going to go upstairs to have sex with your grandmother".
Can someone please explain telemetry to me in this context? Is telemetry just a broad umbrella term for usage data or does it indicate a specific type of data or category of data?
Of course there are degrees of usefulness and different types of organizing, but generally, your wrong here in your first point. Some merit in your second claim, but overall, it's something they likely feared to a degree as a point of connection and amplification of information.
He needs daddy's approval and the other billionaires are surrogate daddy. That would be the social agenda influence you're referencing. Look at how desperate and odd he was on stage with dave chapelle, that was a core view into his base self, he needs to be praised. He's also a eugenics/natalism cult member and sees the wealthy as his equal, superior "race" of people - so he would 100% sacrifice a lot for even their passing approval.
Wallow looks interesting, how is it on battery use though?
Had anyone here switched to this from pocket casts? Anything you miss, did you go back?
They didn't raise the issue, it's already on top of the mountain... of bullshit... that is modern politics.
Get these fucking people out yesterday. Driving tests (and politician tests) annually, after 75.

No it isn't.
No... No it's not... But you can imagine what'd be like if it was, right?
People are listening, you're watching too much corporate news - they are angling him as legitimate to "make a race" and get ratings. These cynical fucks aspire to be the announcers of the hunger games one day so they can wear the glitter makeup and be the center of attention.
Trump's base is a dwindling 25% of those who vote, he already lost last time and his indictments should add up to something. The problem with our gerrymandered kleptocracy is that the federal elections come down to Shirley in Ohio/Pennsylvania. Shirley did the right thing last time around but she's back at the prom now and everyone wants to dance with her - how will she vote? Suburban moms in the Midwest, mostly non-college educated, hold the fate of the future in their live, laugh, love scripting hands...
So when you say "people aren't facing up to" the people of not here are Shirley and her friends. I don't know if she's convinced that trump is a viable candidate after Jan 6, the stacking indictments, Biden's moderate centrist progresses, and the Florida nutjobs as a mock trial of what would come from a gop win in '24, but keep the pressure on until the election regardless.
I'm sure they are bad, because general corporation and enshittification cycle, but when someone consistently mentions, "a single tweet" or something like that that they represent as purely innocuous (but without any explanation or link to source), gets my suspicious radar WAY up...
On purpose.
Only clearer by the day that this was all an exercise to intentionally kill Twitter to the benefit of billionaires, fascists and other extremists.
Twitter existed as a relatively free and open public space to communicate, organize and assemble to take actions for and against things at scale before musk (e.g. The Arab Spring, a terrifying moment for the Saudis especially - the second largest shareholder behind musk).
When people collectively laughed at elon and his cringe, inbred, emerald boy antics or his humiliating divorce and other routine failures, Twitter was the bullhorn.
Now elon and his desperate far right Toadies will work to try to rewrite reality so they can eventually have this conversation:
"Twitter? What's a Twitter? Wait, are you talking about blork? A bird? No, blork's logo is a dinosaur with chainsaw arms... and everyone wants to be his best friend... and it's against the law to divorce him... and he's cool... and..."
What an everlasting tool history will remember you as, elon. If they remember you at all, it will be to laugh at you - you'll never outrun that.

Not pretty, but Kenesis (sp?) is the winner. Tried many available options through work, stuck with their design for years now.
It wasn't always great, but it was something we could check into when we weren't in our niche subs.
IMO, like it or hate it, to get people to migrate we need to do a better job of recreating that general feed first.
When something is culturally relevant, it should surface there for discussion in an obvious main thread that's risen to the top where we all gather. Right now there is took much work and choice involved in the first experience. Redundant posts cannibalizing comments and ultimately not facilitating the big discussion that Reddit could be.
Many other priorities to be sure, but Devs should work to make their default app experiences dump new users into a default view of the best version of this feed. Communities should also share and sticky same guidance on how to set up that best user experience (maybe per app), it should be unavoidable information (to start at least).
I know growth isn't the main focus here (or an actual focus at all maybe), and it shouldn't be, but if this is to satisfy the urge to connect on a better scale that Reddit satisfied, it needs to be impossibly simple to "walk into the room" see everyone talking about the titanic submarine in this one dedicated corner, and comment blindly that you think they should be called "hoagies" and not "subs".
What do you think?
The problem is actually that it has been thought through, extensively. The cruelty is the point. Also, nobody ever asked this "web designer" to design a website for a LGBTQIA+ wedding. This is a created farce, about a "what if". This person creates templates, and doesn't want LGBTQIA+ to be able to buy them as anyone else could. Conservative donors cherry picked this to ride it up the line to get their time in front of the corrupt, broken SCOTUS.
This allows a person to say that, if they FEEL that whatever their work is is a demonstration of art or self expression, they can limit who receives it... A.K.A. "I put love into the food I make at this diner I own, and my religion is for white, Christians only. We don't serve food to none of the other non-whites. You need to leave!"
Let's all agree that of its many issues, locking/deleting open threats to targeted minority groups and pro supremacist propaganda meant to hurt or influence vulnerable people was NOT a drawback of the Reddit experience.
Yes, it's a difficult thing to enforce a subjective line of a basic standard of decency, but it's also what a society is and one of the main reasons we gather as people. The quality of a group is shown in how they accommodate the weakest and most vulnerable among them.
If we aren't prioritizing a way to send this CHUD and people liked them to the hypothetical edge of town, to be sure they can't bombard the young person struggling with their gender identity with targeted hate at their weakest moment, then what are we doing here?
