What's the last #tactics game you played? (if it was #fireemblem engage then please, tell me the one before that) I'm trying to get into something new. +Points if it's on sale on #steam atm.
Does anyone know what I can do to help #promote#mastodon to those around me? I think the idea of the #fediverse is much more secure and open (at the same time) than having all these large corporations farming data constantly. #wondering
@anianimalsmoe I'm ok with data scapers and the like, pulling data that has been posted, because every since we starting using the internet, the public sentiment was always "If it's online, it's out there and online forever!"
I don't like the idea of handing over private info to the powers that be and building a huge profile of likes and dislikes that are then tied to my phone, email, etc. and then sold without my consent to third parties.
But I have a good feeling about the positive effects that #threads will have on #mastodon if it's fully inoperable it'll bring more and more eyes to #mastodon
Friend: Do you want to hang out next week?
Me: No, I’ll be sick.
Friend: You know you’re going to be sick a week in advance?
Me: Yeah, that’s just what social gatherings do to me.
It seems that the internet is enshittifing itself even further. Besides the Birdsite turning unregistered access and Aliensite, everyone knows that already,
Now Youtube is the next on the #enshittification trend as they are testing adblock detection, and you can be blocked from watching videos after three videos of ignoring the warning, unless you disable it or pay for Youtube Red.
