And here comes Discord with steel chair!

Wouldn’t exactly say fashisim is to blame but rather simply corpos want maximize profit on a hinherently unprofitable business models. Like I’m personally not seeing much ideology getting pushed anywhere. Granted I hardly spend time on Twitter but all I’ve been seein on x is furry tits and on the other platforms just ads getting pushed. From what I can tell you can say what ever and no one will hear you over the ads.

Twitter, instagram, facebook, reddit – DNS blocked on my network. The addition of that simple friction to viewing those sites has completely broken me of the crutch. [Plus the Murdock-block plugin and I’m in a great place.]

That’s amazing! Do you have the source anywhere? I’ve always wanted to dabble in simple Firefox plugins

Don’t be surprised when you find a new fork in the morning 🌞🌄
Am I the only one who is frustrated about the text placement over the colors?
yes
Does that say sprik?
I’m colorblind so I could be way off… But it looks like the red one is Twitter and the blue one is Reddit which just seems ironic lol
You’re 100% correct
It’s why I moved over to Kbin / Mbin lol
we have alternatives to both. people just need to switch.
but youtube is really hard to replace.
Don’t worry, there’s TikTok. /s
SEO might actually enshittificate YT or make it dependant on AI. Both are hard to deal with from a privacy or open source POV.
Nebula.tv has some promise. It’s not free but it’s very cheap and creator-owned. Plus there’s no ads. But it can never be a true replacement for Youtube because it doesn’t allow just anyone to upload there.
The enshitification continues
I more likes on my tweets than ever since Elon took over! …And the increase is all bots.
Add Youtube to the list…
Yeah YouTube is one of the more annoying ones imo
Yeah. Lack of any viable alternatives really sucks with YouTube in particular. Hosting video is too damn expensive.
To me the most annoying part is everyone is so entrenched in youtube they either need to accept its a service they should pay for or start looking at migrating. There cant be any viable alternative if there isn’t an audience.
Call me paranoid, but a ton of money is at stake over platforms that used to be useful in terms of spreading information. And they’re both being tanked at the same time? During heightening ‘geopolitical tensions’? And in the face of a strange upcoming election in the United States where both platforms started and are based?
In 2023… Why would you use either?
Easy. Twitter is where my metal homies are. Reddit for baseball. I don’t care about the political angle of each. That’s not why I’m there.
to be where the people are?
I love the idea of our little corner of the Internet, but it doesn’t have the content or the users of the incumbents.
