lemmyingly,

How is the Fediverse privacy focused?

lemmyingly,

Boost still works

Where To Find Actually Good Search Engines?

I’m kind of tired of Google sending me to the same 3 sites whenever I search for something. If not the same 3 sites it’s 7 others that are so generic and boring I just feel they’re useless. It’s always makeuseof, androidauthority, or whatever other sites that have useful information but I rarely feel like they are saying...

lemmyingly,

Is it better than Bing-GPT search?

It feels like for the most part, Bing just parses your query for keywords and performs a search with them. Then it parses the first page and spits out the result. On the surface it looks like a regular web search I would do myself.

lemmyingly,

Why do you believe that?

lemmyingly,

It feels like it has a similar stance to what BeMe had but is somewhat successful. Less about you attempting to look perfect and more about every day life. The BeMe idea was to set your camera to record, hold it to your chest to record what ever you were looking at, and before you knew it the video was uploaded to the servers.

lemmyingly,

Is this an old screenshot? The email looks like a screenshot of a screenshot, of a screenshot, etc.

lemmyingly,

Interesting that some/many believe that Leclerc easily out performs Sainz but the smooth operator is right there with him on points.

lemmyingly,

All UK residents pay road tax, whether they own a vehicle or not. You’re referring to emissions tax, which only the vehicle owner pays.

lemmyingly,

The heaviest I’m aware of is apparently 2.25-2.5 tonnes? Which is a similar weight to EV cars?

lemmyingly,

It’s called ‘vehicle exercise duty’. At least get it right if you’re going to be pedantic. It is directly related to emissions, therefore emissions tax is more appropriate for a nickname.

lemmyingly,

6+ hours a day on Reddit? :O I don’t know how that’s possible.

lemmyingly,

I think it’s interesting that people say all third party apps for Reddit are dead because not all of them are dead.

lemmyingly,

Nah…they go at the bottom. 😂 because I want people to read my comments and then realise ‘Oh duck! There was a TLDR down here!’. Insert young girl evil laughing gif

lemmyingly,

Do you not feel the same is true with Reddit?

  • Downvoted perfectly good and reasonable comments. Some are the correct answers because you know a lot about a particular thing in the world.
  • Downvoted perfectly good and reasonable submissions
  • Reddit mods shadow banning your submissions/comments
  • Reddit mods deleting your submissions/comments and/or locking them.
  • People in general just being asses.

I’m not saying that Lemmy is perfect but it feels like both can have a similar vibe. A lot of Lemmy people were/still are Reddit people and so it makes sense that both have similar vibes.

lemmyingly,

Control or redundancy of data?

If there is a federated delete, I get the impression there is no actual way to ensure that data is deleted?

lemmyingly,

Sorry, what do you mean?

lemmyingly,

I believe the same settings are also in WhatsApp.

lemmyingly,

Isn’t it the same in Telegram? Interestingly, in Telegram it looks like everyone can send you a voice message unless you pay Telegram money to unlock the ability to restrict it.

lemmyingly,

I didn’t enable anything. One would assume the default settings should offer a good level of protection to the users.

Interestingly I haven’t had a single spammer/scammer annoy me on Signal. I’m not sure if there are any of these settings in Signal?

lemmyingly,

Interestingly they don’t appear to advertise it at all as a perk on the premium purchasing page.

lemmyingly,

If I understand correctly, the admin drama is no different to the mod drama on Reddit? It’s just more exposed here than it is there?

lemmyingly,

Another symptom of the overwork is that I believe they’re late to start most weeks?

lemmyingly,

I cannot see how distributed systems like Fediverse can be GDPR compliment unless you lock out the system admins of the instance they host. Good DevOps requires frequent backups; it also requires offline backups.

It is one of the only good things about a centralised system - the entity that holds the data can be held accountable for not being compliant and other such things. Many mere mortals can collectively group together to fight against the goliath.

It requires too many resources to chase after the small instance owners of a distributed system like Fediverse. Just like how 3 letter agencies chase after the people who like to ride the seas in their wooden boats. The 3 letter agencies have spent a lot of resources attempting to shut it down but they’ve never come close.

lemmyingly,

I actively don’t use the YouTube app.

No adblocker, sponsorblock, or return the dislike button.

I also don’t use the app for a website if the mobile website is good enough. Less software on my phone, so a reduced amount of storage used on apps, fewer updates, hopefully reduced CPU and battery consumption, fewer security issues, reduced data collection, and my phone is just a little cleaner to use. Everyone has their own preference, this is just mine :)
