This would be so good. As someone who fully switched to Firefox on Android I hate that chrome webview is a thing.
Closest without rooting is to “uninstall updates” to the chrome app in the menu which makes it “APK Stub” instead of Chrome, ans then disabling Android Webview.
It’s arbitrary but something like SELECT * FROM posts WHERE datePosted < ( currentDay() - 7) ORDER BY upvotes; doesn’t feel like an algorithm as it is now used in common parlance to me.
A simple quantitative analysis of an existing metric and (upvotes in the above super simplified example) is just not really the same thing in practice as say: multiple linear regression of hidden backend engagement metrics gathered through things like cursor movements to pick a suggested video that is predicted to optimize the best for watch time and CTR from a list of videos on a balance of personalized and generalized (through tracking trends amongst demographics) favourites topics and other qualities classified and categorised by a whole other black box involving all sorts of classifier models from text to images and so on.
Idk, I didn’t take algorithms in CS at uni, so this is just a layman’s two cents. I’m happy to be explained to why this isn’t a valid perspective.
Nah. Algorithms, especially personalized as a way of sorting a feed are just a shite idea. Maybe one of the iOS apps will add something like that but if anything is being different is a selling point. I got two friends on fedi by telling them that “it has no algorithm” which is a simplification of course but you get the gist. It also really hits home that this is not a corporate product.
Nah. The different character of the communities and their history makes them unique and special, hiding that for broad appeal is unnecessary.
No need to muddy the waters with weird client-side obfuscations, one big one almost always wins and the other gets reposts, while subscribing to both is trivial if one wishes
They don’t care consciously, but subconsciously they’ll know and remember the time and idea was defended badly whenever it comes up, especially if their knowledge on it is a blank or close to blank slate.
If you make it entertaining and thus a source of dopamine, and even better yet very consumable - you’ve got bonafide content and then people start caring, even if it’s only for lulz.
They’ll associate your views with intelligent witty dunks and the dopamine they bring and have a favourable view of them.
That’s both the model of the “Le angry feminazis!” reaction channels of the post-gamergate world and the hbomberguys of the world, especially his earliee stuff.
I forgor 💀
We had this as the firewall in our school! I remember bypassing it in so many ways with Google DNS and whatnot.
You win debates for onlookers, you’re not meant to change the perspective of the person you’re debating, you’re meant to make them look like idiots so that any lurkers who quietly agree feel bad and change their viewpoint. The left lost because they weren’t willing to do this hard enough.
Yeah it would be a great place for rightoids to hunt queers and attack them on optics
His friend was too far gone to start with.
Bruh I forgot “charts” are still a thing. I’ve not listened to an artist above 600k monthlies on Spotify in like 5 years neither does anyone I know. We’re all in our niches. I guess this “death of common big media/pop culture” is yet another intellectualist bubble.
Most Americans don’t understand what an election is they just think it’s funny content like pranks or something
People in the current year literally believe this
Not a meteorologist but definitely aliens. Don’t get probed man.
It’s also the fact that cup size is not necessarily independent from band size, that’s where the trick is. I used to think I’m an A with a high band size as I’m huge with no booba, like a 39A or something but those never fit that well.
According to ABraThatFits methodology I’m actually 36C, which somehow does fit and super well, though by common and dudebro methodology I’m most certainly more of an “A cup” if that makes sense.
TL:DR: Apple operates in Russia and removes anti-war based relatively good guy non-state-funded anti-Putin podcasts that Russian government doesn’t like within Russia. Afaik.
We cannot win by changing the fediverse into something like what we left behind because it will no longer be the fediverse we know and love, all we have is the good fight of educating people on why it is better and ourselves as an example - a city on a hill to which others may flock if they see the shine, and it may not be a fight we can win but it is the only fight worth fighting.
Why is you explaining it breaking the law? Can you not mention sanctions either? RuTube is also already a thing, it started in like the earlu 2000s during the brief Russian tech boom, alongside VK, LiveJournal, Ozon, avito, mail dot ru and Ramblr which were all the same thing - copy of a western site with some changes.
