Suyu 😂😂😂😂
It’s like they’re begging Nintendo to sic private investigators and a whole centurion of highly paid lawyers on them.

There’s your problem. Using Linux is like using a dishwasher instead of a rice cooker to cook rice.
This is peak YandereDev.
Sites owned by Reach PLC (i.e. the Mirror, London Evening Standard and a lot of local news sites in the UK) are worse. Like… giving your phone digital cancer levels of bad.
It’s more like there’s a technical barrier for using Lemmy (or any fediverse social media for that matter) and for actually giving a shit about Reddit’s API policy.
There’s a tendency for more tech-saavy people going to Lemmy.
This is gonna be a very bitter pill for everyone to swallow, and I realise that I’m posting this on a pro-piracy community and am about to get eviscerated for this take.
Stop being cheapskates.
Video hosting costs a lot of money and this is a core reason why there’s so little competition in the video sharing and livestreaming market. YouTube is probably a gigantic loss-leader for Alphabet.
Tonnes of competitors have come and gone in this space. Blip TV, Dailymotion, VidMe, Own3D, Azubu, Hitbox, SmashCast, etc. Even in terms of current competitors, the only live streaming platforms now available are either bankrolled by shady crypto gambling sites (Kick), hardline pro free speech right wingers (Rumble), or are the main two (Twitch and YouTube.)
Don’t get me wrong, Google have been incredibly aggressive with pushing ads on every single video to the point where the platform is borderline unusable with ads. But this doesn’t give you the God-given right to freeload off of Google’s servers.
Either pay for Premium ($13.99/month isn’t even that pricey) or stop using the site.
Y’all are part of the reason why so many YouTubers have to resort to shilling crappy mobile games and shady services in every single one of their vids.
Why would they target Lemmy users?
Your typical Lemming (for lack of a better term) is not technologically inept and would generally not fall for a phishing scam. They’d earn a lot more money from targeting Redditors.
The problem is that the fediverse is an unmoderated mess, especially with how Lemmy and Mastodon are currently set up.
What’s stopping griefers from setting up a brand new instance to spam existing communities with CP?
Of course you speaking bad about the fediverse = downvotes because you’re mainly talking with fanboys.
Dunno why you’re being downvoted. Defederation feels like a gung-ho way of handling content moderation issues that centralized platforms would be able to directly solve.
To me this is a flaw of federation in general and I really think the solution should be to defederate yourselves from other instances until further notice, and only federate with trusted communities.
With how Lemmy (and the fediverse in general) is currently set up, what’s stopping malicious actors from just creating another Lemmy instance of their own then targeting another community until you’re forced to close that one like you did with Lemmyshitpost.
DDOS attacks are easy to do, and it’s incredibly simple to find a botnet of infected PC’s. What isn’t simple is actually hacking into a database.
GB News and Talk TV are the Fox News of Britain.
I’d say the Daily Mail are more like an amalgamation of Breitbart and TMZ.
It’s owned by Viscount Rothermere, another ultra rich wealth-hoarding media mogul.
Daily Mail is considered expensive toilet paper by a lot of Brits.
The worst thing about it is that it’s not even available in two-ply.
Apparently it came from Exploding Heads, an instance that Lemmy.world already defederated from.
Revo Uninstaller is your friend.
As somebody who flocked to Voat during the height of the Ellen Pao controversy and remembered the site being rendered unusable for whole days at a time from the Reddit Hug of Death, I’m remarkably surprised at how well Lemmy.world has held up. I thought the fediverse would have truly crumbled from this exodus.
Android users desperately need a better app for browsing Lemmy than Jerboa. Boost and Sync may just be that app.
John McAfee would be spinning like a rotisserie chicken in his grave. Or at least he would be if McAfee Software hadn’t already turned to shit long before his death.
Don’t underestimate the stupidity of your average person.
