These would be good for company internal use. Many tech companies and banks and shit use Facebook internally. Absolutely disgusting.
I'm tempted to use it as a contact method, but there isn't much privacy and anonymity wouldn't make it an effective contact method.
If I want to blog, I'll do it on imageboards. That way I can be honest.
>>2396 >why would you say that is, anon?
because it's still basically social media. the analytics/advertising haven't fully arrived, but tripfagging and rudiments of e-celeb culture are increasingly coming to the fore. frankly, Mastodon really fucked things up by introducing a legion of people to the Fediverse who've done nothing but try to remake Twitter in their own image while simultaneously quashing all the elements that make Fediverse special. the arrival of privacy scopes all but codified the end of the public square mentality that the Fediverse embodied for a long time; they do nothing for privacy (as many of us here would define the term), and broken threads are now no longer an exception at many instances but the rule. I also can't emphasize enough that phoneposting culture hopelessly buries any signal to be had in noise. it needs to discouraged. it's a bad sign when people start admitting to posting from the toilet without shame.
at this point, I only follow a few quality people and mostly ignore the rest. that's not the Fediverse I joined, and I hate how it's changing.
>>2397 The other day I read someone theorizing that the only real world phenomena that resembles social media like Twitter and Facebook is a riot. Not a public square, not a giant village, not a circle around a fire, none of those positive human experiences, but a big revolt where no one really knows each other and nobody really knows what we're against, but everyone is constantly angry and fearful.
The algorithms used to promote and demote content favor instantaneous emotional responses and that introduces a huge bias towards outrage, anger and mob mentality. Good emotions like trust, happiness, learning take much longer to happen and be expressed, so the algorithms ranks content that produces these emotions much lower.
That theory is the exact reason I've completely abandoned fourchan. Once you take the nostialgia goggles off, it's quite literally no different than the average normie social media hellhole. Just pure, unbridled, irony centralized outrage-culture.
I haven't truly enjoyed a social interaction with a stranger on platforms that aren't nanochan or 8chan in months.
I played around with it for a bit but 1)their block lists are extreme, and the majority of their admins are radical leftists. and 2) 90% of the posts are retards blogging one-liners. Maybe Twitter was mostly that as well but I never followed it, and witty OC doesn't seem to exist that I've seen.
I know Pixiv has one so it might be valuable for following artists but it's clearly not the same use as Twitter was before the shadowbanning.
>>2462 Cuckchan is not only no different from normalfag websites, it is worse than them due to being forced to preform a jewgle enslavement captcha for EVERY single post. So while the content is just as bad as leddit and the others, you have to put in a huge amount of more effort just to interact with other humans. Fuck even faceberg lets you use tor, meanwhile cuckchan bans tor and every single known VPN. I with absolutely sincerity can say that 4chan is the single most cucked website on the internet. It almost borders on the level of cuckoldry that financial domination does, especially considering you have to literally pay a subscription to post without the jewgle enslavement captcha.
>>2464 >Google reCAPTCHA
The problem is that it's implemented by people who have never been bothered by them and have no idea about how many people stop using their web service because the CAPTCHA won't let them through (like with Tor users too often)
>>2462 Even reddit is better than 4cucks. Not only that you can browse it freely as tor user, at least on old.reddit, but years ago you could register through tor without any javashit and you can still use vpn without paying to whatever faggot is in charge like is the case with 4cucks.
>>2469 on-topic https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19087558 Summary: Reddit begs for money from China, because thirteen years is just not long enough to turn a profit. Hackernews, all of whom use Reddit extensively, agree that Reddit faces several problems: its userbase is garbage, the website itself is a pile of shit, and the company is now beholden to extremely rich people who live in a dictatorship. Most Hackernews suggest various UI improvements that can overcome these limitations. source n-gate.com
>>2474 That's rich. 4chan has already been sold out to a jap, who is trying desperately to farm it for shekels. The userbase on 4chan is not only ass, it's ass on every single board because there is no board creation.
>>2474 The implication isn't that reddit is good, it's that 4chan has become worse than one of the most leftist forums on the planet. It's ironic because of cuckchan's long history of telling people to fuck off to reddit.
>>2584 Not true. Japanese faggots literally force girls to bleach their hair black if their natural color is different. Yeah, like 90% of japanese have black hait, but that doesn't make that 2d weebshit any less like japanese girl.
>>2587 Well, japan has crippled its entire population with hypercapitalism and filled society with really strong nihilism because of that, not that it's not happening in western countries where everything is starting to be measured by employability and how well can you be monetized, how much money do you make, social status and shit like that. Many people are neets in europe today too. Slaving few years for half a regular pay just to work for shlightly better pay because companies bitch about not having enough workforce while requiring 3 years experience and when you come to talk to them that you want a job and say that you have 2 universities, they will send you rolling down the hill because they don't want skilled, educated labor, they want cheap labor. Once you start whoring out like that, you either become neet and start looking for job on black/grey market or you become slave spending your wage on drugs just so that you don't have to kill yourself because you have no fuckin way out. What can family possibly do, unless your family is reasonably connected and wealthy?
My point was that it's more straighting 'em out; they are preparing them for the slavery when you can't raise your voice on some asshole because they'll kick you out and write you a bad, bad reference. Ever heard about normalization that took place after '68 in western comunist bloc? Similar. You are better out with being lowered than standing naturally above else or slightly being odd etc. False normativity.
>>2589 Well orchestrated, chapeau Jews, Europe will get its censorship, America well get its censorship, Russia will get (and has) its censorship, China has its censorship and all before 2020. Great timing for the coming Grand solar minimum which will cause great food shortages and migration into the Western world, dubbed Climate Migration.
>bump for "based" japs
Bump for based people, world-wide.
>>2590 The only place it's really extreme is nipland though, because of their doujin scene. It's gay shit everywhere else but mainstream media is down the shitter anyway, and good motivation for independents to get bigger.
>>2380 >git.plemora.social
I really, really hate GitLab and its spinoffs. Even fucking GitHub lets me interact with repositories without having to enable javascript.
>>2609 The story is less than subtle in casting the destiny of each of girls as a product of both criminal and state exploitation. S1 is at least well executed, if not entirely original.
