It amazes me how people apparently can't live without watching shitty videos all the time... Oh, well.

LOL

Kinda like how Chinese citizens can’t use tiktok either. Wonder why…

To bad they didn't hear about Loops. I don't use this stuff so I have no idea if it's good or not, but it's not Chinese or collecting your data so it would be worth a try. Although if 400k users flooded it I have serious doubts they could scale to meet a demand like that.

The scalability is my concern too. It took me like 8 days after I signed up before I got my login to Loops.

Gotta say I really like it, though

Just a few days after more than 700 million new users flooded RedNote…

A Beijing-based independent industry analyst, Liu Xingliang, told Reuters that RedNote was "caught unprepared" by the influx of users.

I tried to challenge some ideas in World News and I guess asking questions about Chinese censorship is xenophobic. Now I'm banned for not being pro Chinese censorship.

Well, there's also the racism

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Serious question. Did I say something racist?

.ml

There’s your problem. If they stated their rules, rather than forcing people to figure them out by trial and error, I’d have less of an issue with it. Like, lemmygrad is explicit in its intent and they state it outright in their rules. Lemmy.ml plays it too coy, and so comes off as incredibly manipulative.

You just broke the secret law!

Typical fascist behavior.

Can’t have them getting ideas like tolerance for minorities.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Not from America. America is full of hatred towards minorities.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not significantly more than anywhere else.

Oh come off it mate. It’s not hard to see where the US has lead the charge in topics such as LGBT+ rights or racial equality, and it wasn’t from Asia or Europe let me tell you that much.

They may have a shit ton of flaws, and have a large part actively trying to undo all their work, but they have still done so much positive.

Look at the timeline for marriage equality for instance, they were right up there with the first wave leading the global surge. That doesn’t happen if you’re full of hatred for them.

They’re a dichotomy of amazing social progressivism and brutal conservatism.
