I feel like I'm spending less time on social media after switching to Lemmy
  • And that’s why I’m never going back. I absolutely love it here. I scroll my feed for a few minutes here and there, drop a comment or two, and I’m done. No feeling of missing something cool. I’ve probably seen it and I’m good.

  • Why do people post so much crap on linkedin?
  • Definitely. I said this in another reply as well, but I don’t respond unless they say something very specific about my background. I know AI can do that but that seems the best way to go for now.

  • Ocasio-Cortez endorses Biden's reelection campaign, sending a strong signal of Democratic unity
  • For real. Even as a white guy, I’m tired of this shit as well. Wish we could get someone younger and more progressive on the ballot. It’s time to get those old ducks out of office. They have no grasp on how shit really works these days.

  • I think the average person just simply doesn't care about their privacy.
  • It is. They know everything about you. Even every store you have shopped at knows a lot about you. It really doesn’t take much interaction for a company to get a lot of info. It’s relatively easy to get an email and from there, if they wanted, they can get the rest of your profile from a 3rd party who has your data all matched up already. They can also build your profile pretty easily themselves as well.

  • Is it just me or did anyone else became a more avid poster since joining lemmy?
  • I've posted more but I'm still mostly a lurker. I have enjoyed reading the actual discussion here. The comments at reddit got to be so formulaic and the same across posts, it's refreshing to see actual thought and effort go into making comments.

  • What was the subreddit that represented to you the best example of downspiral of quality? To me it was /r/dataisbeautiful
  • For me it was /r/cfb. That place was completely insufferable if you were simply a fan of a particular team. When it started it wasn't bad, like an occasional ribbing if your team under-performed. I get that it's cyclical, but man, was it bad. I also don't think that most people realized it was mostly a circlejerk and real content was hard to find in that mountain of shit.

  • [TECHCRUNCH] Twitter now requires an account to view tweets
  • How do they expect to bring new people into the platform? No tweet is important enough for the activation energy of someone to create an account to view it. Fuck twitter anyway, but from a product perspective, that's a pretty dumb idea unless they have positive metrics on conversions in this manner.

    NSFW shows in feed even though setting is disabled

    Randomly my feed will fill with new posts even though it's set to "Hot". Some of those posts will include NSFW content. I guess this could be two issues that are occurring.

    1. User gets a feed dump of new posts even though it's set to "Hot"
    2. NSFW content shows in feed even though setting is disbaled
