The Russia has had a tradition of telling about drones hitting targets as "shot down" and being quiet about drones shot down, because they don't want to show how many drones really attacked.
I don't really know why they have elected to tell the amount of targets succesfully hit as "shot down", but maybe they think we won't notice?
I'd really like to read more about this. Nobody is telling how this regional train caught fire. There are mentions of a substation being burned, so did this train just end up stopping next to the substation and caught fire? Somebody on Supernova+ was saying:
Там пожар прямо на ж/д на карте НАСА чуть севернеее Стародеревянской и Каневской
So, they're saying that a little bit nortwards of the train there's a fire right next to the railway. That suggests this train rode into a fire that had ignited earlier. What is the precise location where this train was caught on this video?
At the same time when Ukraine is gaining village after village from the Russia? I think I know a reason why the Russia wants to make such claims as the one referred to in this post :)
I don't think they're hoping much for uncancellations.
What had been happening was that the cancellations kept on coming, day after day. They most likely looked at the trend and figured that they need to act, or the stream of subscription cancellations will never stop.
However, a lot of people here and there have been reporting that they've cancelled their Disney subscriptions. They saw that the trend is not showing signs of ending and had to make it end. Get Kimmel back and customers will stop leaking away.
The Russia started actively supporting neo-nazistic organizations in ex-USSR countries around year 2005. That was documented back and there were news articles about that. For example in Ukraine that caused the prevalence of a nazi problem to increase steadily year after all the way until 2014 when that development got cut and the prevalence started decreasing.
Back then, 20 years ago, when there was more media attention about it, it was done only in ex-USSR countries, but it would be weird if the same concept hadn't been extended to EU countries as well. Why wouldn't it have been? It has worked extremely well for Putin in the original area, and there's no reason to assume it wouldn't work for him the same way within EU countries as well.
But, if we are playing that, then at 2 % of the intensity required. There's a LOT we could do.
One thing I keep saying is that where Russians can still obtain EU visas, they should have to fill a short questionnaire about current events in the Russia and its war against Ukraine.
Something, where they'd have to know the basics of who has attacked whom and when, and also what has been happening at the front in the last 4 weeks.
In order to know which correct answers to learn by heart. they would quickly develop a network of delivering that information to everyone who needs it for applying a visa. That network could be used for getting reliable information about the situation in the Russia without the information having been tainted by Kremlin.
For most of the people applying for visas, that would be just "so, this is what they want to hear, so this is what I will tell them. I know it's not reality, but I don't care. That's the correct words for them and I'll get to visit something else than this shithole."
But here and there, some people would figure out how much the Russian TV has been lying to them. And at the same time, the same sources of information that exist for visa applicants could be used by anyone who wants reliable information. That would sow the seed of a revolution.
That would be super useful for spreading awareness in the Russia! And basically from Kremlin's playbook.
I sometimes use search, trying to guess what names interesting communities might have.
And then, I sometimes just open the other instances' pages in a web browser and view their Local. If there's something interesting going on, I click the "Subscribe" button that asks for my instance's address and adds that community for me on my instance. Or, if the community is on Piefed or on a Lemmy instance not using the default theme, I copypaste the URL into the relevant search on my home instance.
If you want to see communities hosted on suppo.fi, write suppo.fi on your browser's address bar and view their Local.
Can't you also just use the search tool? The names and descriptions of all communities on an instance are known to all instances that are federated with it, aren't they?
If you want to find a community about adhd, you write "adhd" on the search (click "communities" as the tab when searching!).
It shows every community that has "adhd" in their name. You then subscribe to a community and it starts showing in the All of everyone on your instance.

If they have a fighter plane that can shoot missiles, why couldn't they?
