I'm getting really tired of trying to run away from big tech, only to be ensnared again by the greed and/or naivety of sites who ultimately cave to the whims of big tech....
I hope you're right, sounds quite exciting!
Could you describe what "webrings" were? I've read about them in a similar thread, but couldn't find any info on them.
Thanks. I now realized, how I came to that conclusion: Last time this was discussed the person called it "link ring" and that didn't not yield any reasonable results.
Edit: And because notifications for comment replies are deactivated by default I didn't even notice the person has corrected their wording. Still learning how to kbin :).

People are shitting on Germans public broadcasting and its fee a lot and there have been a couple of actual scandals, but all in all the news and investigative pieces they produce are so important.
Just starting to familiarize myself with everything after about a decade at reddit. I understand that you can view content across instances but I'm noticing that both kbin and lemmy have similar (competing?) magazines/communities....
I could imagine something similar to reddit's multisubreddit feature, whereas in this case it's different magazines/communities from different instances or even services.
High-ranking government officials have “first-hand knowledge” of a secret Pentagon crash retrieval program for UFOs, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said Tuesday in an interview.
The article discusses the growing interest and discussion surrounding UFOs, or UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), in Washington DC. Despite the city's reputation for seriousness and lack of excitement, numerous important figures, including politicians, intelligence officials, and even former presidents, have made statements...
Weirdly enough, there is no actual buzz yet, from my point of view. The claims are quite crazy, and mainstream media has only reported hesitantly if not ignored the recent developments so far.
So while I understand your general stance, I would agree more with the article in that "something" is going on that is worth looking at, without coming to early conclusions. No matter the outcome, it can potentially teach us a lot about how these involved organizations/entities work.
A Manitoba member of Parliament wrote Canada's minister of defence this spring suggesting the country has participated in a secret multi-nation program devoted to "the recovery and exploitation" of unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP) material.
I am intrigued about this whole UAP whistleblower guy named David Grusch.
Is it Psyops, confused officials, a business model (to sell books, speak on conferences)?
I came back to gaming after PS1 during the end of the PS4 era and the first bigger title I played was The Last of Us Remake. I was blown away by the production value. In case you're looking for something "less chill" after Stray I can only recommend it.
I also liked Stray! How do you like it so far?

I can’t think of anything more news worthy than this.
Let's say the worst case scenario happens with kbin and Meta. What are some alternate sites/instances that would be more resilient to enshitification?
