plus it’s their CEO, or their community manager in their name, directly addressing the questioner and going “you don’t understand, under our big tent approach only 5% of people we give money to are controversial, let’s not address your concerns and move on.”
While I agree in principle, the response from the CEO, was: only like 5% of people we give money to are racist Nazi bigots “controversial”, let’s agree to disagree and move on.
Which is massive narcissitic, non-empathic behaviour. It’s giving me less “you don’t matter because soon you’ll be dead”-vibes and more “I am literally unable to understand your concerns and empathise with you”-vibe, which to me personally is much more damning.
Make use of that second link.
I get that participation is important, but why does it feel like google is outsourcing good, sane management decisions?
I agree about the liability part. My interest was piqued during the so called Twitter files, when reporting was something like the bosses of twitter, Facebook and Wikipedia sat in a weekly (or was it monthly?) meeting, where they were told what controversial topics to “tamp down” on. I found it very weird, especially since I cannot imagine how one “tamps down” on a wikipedia article?
I think the much harder part is how would you go about democratising a website?
I switched to /e/ a while ago, they have a feature called advanced privacy. commercial Lemmy clients like Connect and Raccoon have trackers embedded and are blocked automagically. ^I use Jerboa btw^
Might be - on the other hand, /e/ already supports f-droid out of the box, so there may be a possibility just google play will be going away…
Look at postmarket OS. Unless you are really lucky, texting, calling, wifi, etc is not or barely working.
Well I played beasts of maravilla island with my youngest (late teens) and can recommend. Very cute, nice dynamics and very easy to turn off and come back later.
Did also not know momcore was a thing tho…
