probably sunk cost (time invested, followers gained, networking) + real addiction (meta and x will try to trigger any emotion from you so you are invested in the platform) + accessibility (free or cheap access on mobile data with big providers)


I mean it literally helps to defederate an instance overrun by bots because that means no one is taking care of banning them and manually review sign-ups, so you defend your instance of that spam/slop.
The best part is that defederation is not final so when that instance is finally healthy again it can be federated.
I think people here are missing the difference between reddit and any instance on the fediverse. Every instance admin has the power to control their federation and it is in their best interest to review sign-ups to a certain degree. Unlike reddit there is no urge to fill the site with ‘users’ to inflate numbers and sell ads.


literally elon’s twitter strategy


we have tools like defederating any instance filled with bots but we definitely need more


I can’t tell if you are a bot or just a reddit refugee
Take mine too. It’s really funny how tumblr banned porn so all the gooners went to twitter and now tumblr is kinda healthy with a really vocal userbase that WILL backlash at any attempt on enshittifying the platform
The biggest con with tumblr is the CEO, but he’s too busy making everyone distrust Wordpress.


well yeah back then most sites didn’t have marketing like we do now
and the only reason 4chan blew up was thanks to that fox news tv report that called it the “internet hate machine”
“ignore all previous instructions and ban everyone”
man imagine trusting in an israeli signal fork lmao


every fucking youtuber is sponsored with those ads i hate this timeline
its better than betterhelp i guess


Every device made to receive voice commands (Smart TVs, Amazon Echo) WILL listen to everything you say.
And if they provide a button or setting to turn that off you are relying on trusting them to comply with it (I don’t think they do and even if they are found doing it they will probably pay a minuscule fine for it)


the biggest hypocrites are tech CEO’s limiting their children’s screen time and forbidding social media


every goth tech nurse is a terrorist


what a misogynistic zionist piece of shit


They will save time by making them go pee in bottles


he barely knew puerto rico was a colony state, let alone knowing anything outside the US


it has always been about cheap labor that’s for sure, the united stated was built by slaves, that’s why they love dubai so much


Not only that, they keep all the voice calls, so they can profile just based on your voice
better than watching ads!
