  • Honestly I personally, selfishly, hope Lemmy never gets anywhere near Facebook or Twitter huge.

    Most people are fucking boring idiot assholes, full of actually boring and stupid ideas and opinions they only think are clever or notable because them and their social circle are broadly ignorant and hypnotized by marketing.

    I prefer a smaller community where people at least tend toward not being idiots, and not being boring.

    I don’t want to hear from a celebrity, as their celebrity self.

    I don’t want advertising to be viable.

    You are right; most people do not care about things that they should, if they actually believed half the things they say they do. Most people are enormously massive hypocrites about most things, whether theyre aware of that or not.

    I am under no illusion that people, broadly, when freely handed the solution to a large chunk of their problems, will use it, if it means they suffer any kind of inconvenience whatsoever.

    I am under no illusion that most people want what they claim they want; they just want to be popular, or be where the most other people are.

    If Bluesky dies and the users go back to Twitter, they never believed in anything more than ‘I want to be part of the herd.’

    What you identify as a lack of water, I see as a functioning primary filtration system that prevents microplastic infected water from coming in to the system.

    Keep Lemmy Weird.

    I also find it odd that you would likely describe all that as anti-social.

    … having preferences for the kind of people you enjoy socializing with… is not anti social. You seem to be functionally saying that not starting a massive marketing drive, that in itself is anti social.

    This to me is either completely insane, or you don’t understand what ‘anti-social’ means.

    The corporate paradigm for social media… that is anti-social. ‘Demonstrates a chronic pattern of disregarding the rights and well-bring of others.’ They literally act as fine-tuned personalized, digital drugs to manipulate your thoughts and emotions, by exploiting your weaknesses.













  • … well that’s some damn fine blasphemy right there, if I do say so myself.

    I’m apparently on the list.

    Honestly, surprised the file is still up for me to pull, t+24 or t+48 hours on.

    They bothered to end cap the regex with an $… can’t have anything with ‘sp3ctr4l’ anywhere in the name… I don’t have alts, so… I don’t know what the point of that is…

    Oh well.

    Not my first time.

    I got shadow banned and also just actually banned from half of reddit for calling out mods on their bullshit despite being one of the earliest/oldest users there. Obligatory fuck Spez.

    I’m reasonably confident that the twitter account I created soley to scream insults and baseless threats at Elon, when he accidentally bought it, … reasonably confident he personally banned me, as … there weren’t really any other actual support staff at that point time, Elon had revoked their credentials.

    I like to think I contributed, at least in a small way, to his subsequent insane crashout telling advertisers to ‘go fuck yourselves’.

    … this?

    This reminds me of literal petty children running Gmod servers, hardcoding steamid blocklists in hashed files… the hilarious part about that is that they actually bothered to properly encrypt them, so you couldn’t read them without a valid server key.

    So this? Actually laughable, I’ve literally seen 14 year olds do this in a more clever way.

    Fuckin oi vei, man.
