That one Israeli on the Threadiverse. No, sending me death threats won't change my mind, try arguments instead

Hello! That's my main mbin account, my alt is @Fitik, I also have a furry/personal account at @fitik

I'm just a regular person from Israel🇮🇱, a queer, and a #Fediverse enthusiast! I'm a liberal

I don't post much stuff, but when I do I usually post about #tech because I've mostly given up on trying to argue politics on there

  • I don't use Lemmy, I am reading this post on MBin

  • And the source is..? Random Twitter account? How is it even allowed there?

  • so Mastodon, Peertube, BookWyrm, etc.

    https://poliverso.org/ is a pretty well-managed Italian Friendica instance

  • I don't think it's something limited to Fedi, but internet in general. The whole social media "algorithm" promotes such posts, an edgy extreme post filled with hate will get more reactions and upvotes, than a "lame" conventional opinion, so you're more likely to see it. I am not sure how to even fix it, I think it's one of the fundamental problems if the internet, but this is how it is

  • 15$/month, I'd donate more, but I'm poor

  • Username checks out

  • Is this coming to self-hosters

    AFAIK it will be coming for self-hosters in 6.0

  • I can access it without problems from Israel

  • It's basically the same as Reddit karma, it's just the sum of upvotes+downvotes you got

    If it doesn't even affect anything, I don't see why I would care lol

    Same, idc, but some people care about it. Also piefed cares, I think it puts a red icon in the username of the users with negative reputation and their posts start with 0 upvotes instead of 1. (If I'm not mistaken)

  • How's my Mbin karma

    It's 2500~, but it doesn't affect anything on Mbin, so there's no point worrying about it

  • Why not just try all of them out and see which one you like the most? I personally like Mbin the most, but you may like another one. I don't think anything is stopping you from creating test accounts (And you don't need extensive time, I imagine it would take a few hours at most)

  • I'm Jewish myself and I completely agree with you.. Sadly it exists on a pretty much every social media, but BlueSky has a unique feature called sharable block lists/mute lists, I believe they call it "stacked moderation", I've subscribed to a few of those and it has blocked 90% of antisemites/terrorism sympathisers, I kinda wish some Fedi platform would have a similar feature as well

  • !fediversenews@piefed.social is replacing @fediversenews@venera.social, which will be retired in a month

  • Check the microblogging view

  • Hmm, I thought it was open-weights only, but I think you might be right, I've checked HuggingChat and it's one of the options, so you're probably right. And yes, it's better than OpenAI

  • DeepSeek isn't Open source tho
