    Elon Musk rages and Leaks Asmongold's DMs and Removes His Blue Checkmark

  • This was the most important news here!

  • Duolingo sees 216% spike in US users learning Chinese amid TikTok ban and move to RedNote

  • Isn’t Mandarin grammar super easy? It is relatively easy to speak, definitely less so to read/write.

  • TikTok reportedly plans ‘immediate’ Sunday shutdown in the US if it’s banned

    Jump

  • If that was the case people would be using Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts but they are just bad copies that don’t understand what features made TT popular. „The Algorithm” will be impossible to copy and that’s what kept people there.

  • This guy is getting downvoted for truth. TT is the only big media platform that consistently promotes socialist policies and openly attacks western status quo. If there are any truly ideological reasons to ban TT it was because of that. We’re being ruled by the oligarchs and their interests were threatened but let’s not kid ourselves - China has their own who’d happily take their place.

    How much longer do you think the United States has before its collapse and what will cause it?

    Jump

  • It didn’t survive the 70s economic crises but it’s hard to tell what stage of collapse you’re seeing. It could take a really long time regardless.

  • TikTok reportedly plans ‘immediate’ Sunday shutdown in the US if it’s banned

    Jump

  • IIRC TikTok is rather top heavy in terms of income and this highest tier of influencers is diversified across all media channels anyway.

    Regular folk have better luck making money on YouTube and Instagram so TikTok creators are unusual bunch. In my experience (which is very likely shaped by the algorithm) they are a mix of talent show performers, odd personalities and no longer relevant one hit wonders that got lucky. They’re mostly sad about losing that space because it’s so different to alternatives. I don’t think anyone that doesn’t have much money feels in power anymore so what are they going to do?

  • Reminder: there’s an ongoing trade war between US and China and this is likely just a part of it.

  • Meta says it isn’t ending fact-checks outside the US yet

    Jump

  • It should, especially in Germany which has extra strong net laws. For example, Reddit had a special content report path based on German regulations where you have to confirm you’re a citizen. I believe it’s been a thing for years now.

  • Microsoft won’t support Office apps on Windows 10 after October 14th

    Jump

  • It might turn out that Brazil is one of the few civilised countries in this regard unfortunately.

  • Meta says it isn’t ending fact-checks outside the US yet

    Jump

  • All this drama is a distraction to make us believe they had fact checkers before.

  • US finalizes rule to effectively ban Chinese vehicles, which could include Polestar

    Jump

  • I keep saying that it’s just a fantasy that everyone and big tech in particular isn’t quietly selling stuff to the Chinese, especially our data since it’s so easy. Why would they be beholden to national interests when they only exist to make money?

  • Hulu appears to be having a major outage right now.

  • My HDD died and I had to redownload 10TB of stuff. I should be done by tomorrow. Sorry about that.

  • Is a software developer working for an "evil" company more or as guilty than/as a building maintenance technician?

  • By the way, you can have Markdown in Lemmy post titles

  • What good is it for if I can’t change post title font to Comic Sans.

  • Meta’s Moderation Modifications Mean Anti-LGBTQ Speech Is Welcome, While Pro-LGBTQ Speech Is Not

    Jump

  • Not sure what’s your point really, disability olympics where we argue who has it worse? You’re advocating for people who are already disadvantaged to disadvantage themselves on purpose even more for your holy war. I’m fairly sure you have very little idea of regional context (like there’s a world outside of US) which makes this even more out of touch.

  • Unlike you people I have to connect with people with a rare disease and I don’t have a choice. Ride that high horse cowboy, it feels good for a time.

    Jump

  • Okay. I’ll leave those patient support groups because you told me to cut contact with people using corpo media. You might not be interested in boring reasons people do what they do but that’s why common people don’t believe in honesty when you tell them you have their best interest at heart. This suggests that you only care about what’s good for people superficially and people can smell that a mile away, hence current popularity of liberal left.

  • I didn’t say you wouldn’t be at a massive disadvantage but they didn’t have functional moderation before and they’re not going to pay for it now. What’s being suggested as an alternative is flat out giving up.
