Every once in a while I catch that off-brand Fruity Pebbles (Fruity Dino-Bites!) with marshmallows in it. Just blend that shit up and shoot it directly into my fucking veins please.
I want everyone to know that this post right here is what solidified my decision; kbin is my new home!
You can craft features which promote a behavior or inhibit it.
To add to your point, let’s not forget that a certain social media site used their algorithm to boost content that angers people because it also boosts engagement. It shouldn’t be controversial to want a social media that, like, doesn’t exploit negative behaviors to generate more dollars, and I think your working towards something that specifically doesn’t do that is admirable.
This argument that a social media platform not doing evil things also exclusively means it cannot attract an audience in some other way is a false dichotomy.
You’re telling me I can just block Meta/Facebook altogether here in the Fediverse?
I think I’m going to like it here. :)
Couldn’t help but notice this issue (or something similar?) happening on Reddit before I left. Pretty sure something funky is going on on imgur’s end.
