It's just me or reddit is copying everything Twitter is doing? Elon Musk did this and rolled it back as soon as it was obvious it was a bad idea.

"Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?" - Epicurus

Millions work much more for much less. Such ungratefulness, he could had stopped years ago, not many have that luxury.

It doesn't matter your browser or adblocker, Youtube is cracking down in ALL adblocker. Adblockers are probably going to find a way around it, it's a cat chasing the mouse game.

Because it doesn't come with instructions and there's a lot of "buts". For example, it took me a while to understand that, for example, I can't log in "Mastodon.world" with my "Mastodon.social" account, I had to go to "Mastodon.social" to log in and THEN I can access to the content in "Mastodon.social". Also, there's the problem of instances blocking other instances. I would be pretty salty if I couldn't access an account I followed, because the admins of the instance in which the account is hosted, decided to block the instance in which my account is in. That's why the mayority of users go to the biggest instance (Lemmy.world and Mastodon.social for example), because instances blocking the biggest instance is unlikely to happen (you would block a lot of potencial users and therefore, diminished attractiveness of your instance). But everyone doing that defeats the whole point of federalization. Also, there's the problem of defederalizing of instances. Also, the problem of safety, privacy and security. For example, a massive security fault was recently discovered in Mastodon and a server was raised by the police and all of it's data captured by the police. In simple words, the fediverse is not the panacea it was sold like, the kinks are not ironed out.

I'd recommend the Revanced version (is a fork that removed ads and blatant trackers). But it doesn't stop Tik Tok from tracking what you see. For example, Facebook, technically it doesn't have third party tracker, because the app itself is a tracker.

Youtube doesn't have real competition because hosting video is much more expensive than text. That's why Google doesn't make individual reports about YouTube, it's most likely not profitable.

Not necessarily, North Korea is technically a republic.

Very few people actively delete their accounts, but platform eventually die if they can't attract the next generation (young users). Less than 20% of the youth use Facebook for example, because they don't want to be in the same platform as their parents watching them, it will be a long painful day death. Same thing can happen to any platform.

The problem is, that Firefox Android can't group tabs. That's VERY important for me, and is the only reason I don't use Firefox (it's messy using different browsers in PC/Phone).

I think they are getting defederilized by lemmy, so they can't see it.

This is why I won't get a smart watch. If I can't change the battery, then is disposable garbage. I'm looking at you Google Pixel Watch.

Somebody told me it was to create awareness of testicular and prostate cancer. I know it's also a fetish thing in the kink community (those wearing chastity devices).

Every should know about the Sykes–Picot Agreement, it's one of those treaties/laws that have long lasting consequences in the current world (same with ww2 agreements).
