Nice to see that it went well.

Hot damn! Never thought that I'd see the day.

That suggestion sounds like something that I should try. Thank you! 🦊

Edit: A couple days later after doing this and I can confidently say that this definitely cleaned up the feed a bit. Would recommend.

The algorithmic social media feeds on the big corporate platforms are still a major problem. I watch clips of old sitcoms and animal videos on YouTube and despite making vigorous use of the "do not recommend channel" button, I've been getting recommended "women getting owned" content and semen retention nonsense; I honestly don't even know what I clicked that would suggest that I'd be interested in that shit, but the algorithm is pretty clearly still pipelining men into the chud ecosystem and if they lack political experience and context, then it's very easy for them to get sucked in.

It's also ok to wish that they run at a consistently smooth framerate. It's one thing to look like crap and it's another to both look like crap and run like it too. I've been playing Palworld on medium for the past couple of weeks and it was pretty jarring going from that to seeing the Legends Z-A footage.

The questions should be fine for most people so long as they don't go overboard with it. 2-3 should work. Select interests from a list (and have an option to fill some in), select moderation preferences from a list, and select a language/region from a list. There could even be a button that just selects an instance randomly for people who can't be bothered (this can use the browser language to avoid sending people to instances in languages that they don't speak).

I've had a similar idea before for the join sites where they asks users a few questions about their interests/preferences and then redirect them to an instance based on that information. And when they sign up, it could also automatically subscribe them to the relevant hashtags/communities. Instance admins could be prompted when setting up the software if they want the site to send users to their instance (and how many they're willing to take); this could work like a firehose distribution system to help avoid overwhelming infrastructure during exodus waves.

I wonder if it'll be the porn.

I'm going to be so pissed if this AI bullshit ends up drawing too much attention to the best shadow libraries and they get bopped because of it.

I've been using Virt-Manager with KVM/Qemu and don't have any complaints.

Yeah I know. The first sentence should have made it clear that I was commenting on the fashion industry at large in that particular portion of the comment.

Yeah, there's a reason why there's such a massive resistance to things like public transit and universal healthcare; it's because desperate plebs are easier to abuse. Someone dependent on their employer-provided health insurance will be less likely to step out of line when their access to important stuff like insulin is threatened.
