Now? I wasn’t aware they ever didn’t.

I really hope this gets a proper foss “for you” algo. Personalized content and people discovery features are lacking on the fediverse.

Fyi you can still enable heuristic blocking from settings.

Why not just disable the Ubuntu pro ads in the mean time?

I closed my account when that Uber marketing exec got hired by PayPal. This was inevitable.

An enshittified Lemmy alternative.

Democrats have done far more to reason with Republicans this election cycle than they have with third party voters on the left who at least don’t want genocide but know that the duopoly is never going to budge on their undying support of Israel. Let alone other actually progressive policies.

And car insurance. And wall street. And Google with Pixel Pass. Actually I think capitalism just fails to deliver in general.

Google Play IS my “sideloading” app repository.

I was going to block them and lemmygrad at first but decided not to and instead tried to understand what all these people were about.

Now I’m a communist, have a hammer and sickle, live in China, and my favorite color is red. Death to America comrades! Get fucked libs /s

Seriously though, they’re not anymore insane than us. Maybe just a bunch of drunken commies at a bar who don’t really bother to distance themselves from the subjects of a century of red scare propaganda. In any case, it’s worth keeping an open mind and engaging in good faith.

Though as leftist as I personally am and have become in time, I’m not going to call anyone comrade or start using hammer and sickle imagery except in the context of history lol. Libs can still get fucked though.

I’m only on the fediverse but I miss algorithms. Recommended accounts (which to be fair exists on a corner of Mastodon), similar accounts to one you just followed, custom home feed, suggested posts, etc. Discoverability sucks on fedi and the lack of interest from devs for some sort of private FOSS implementation is disappointing.

Loops was like let’s have a “For You” algo early this year but even that seems to be a dead idea.

Edit: nevermind I typed a lot but that Lemmygrad user made a far better post that I agree with.
