I wonder how many manufacturers can currently manage that.

However, the upside is that there are no bots, dark patterns, or manipulated feeds.

There’s a huge amount of incoming spam, much of it, I suspect posted by bots. I’ve also seen account posting ‘news’ from sites that are clearly AI generated

To be honest, it feels much more likely to see posts on the Fediverse with many upvotes, few or no comments

Yeh. I’m pretty comfortable with this broad mix.

Absolutely. Unless they’re actually evil. Which I’m sure they aren’t. But they could be.

Running your own VPN in that situation is a good use-case agreed - assuming you trust yourself :)

You’re hiding your traffic route from your mobile operator and giving it instead to your vpn company who swear they are honest

Just a quick reminder that Twitter was banning 10s of thousands of accounts of extremists that breached its terms of service, including a certain ex president of the US. It was imperfect, but ‘running rampant’ is a stretch

Were Nazis allowed to deliberately ‘run rampant’ on Twitter pre-Elon? That’s a hot take.

Musk’s buying Twitter had nothing to do with it being ‘monetised’ as far as I see. Musk just offered such a stupidly large amount that the board had to say ‘OK, sure.’

Thanks. I hadn’t really thought of creating prompts like that but that’s a nifty idea
