It’s getting so tiresome. Improve products? Improve service? Improve quality? Improve efficiency? Improve literally anything? Nahh, let’s slap an LLM on it and see whether we can fire some people.

This is fantastic! I played the multilayer mod back in the day and it was always a blast.

Quite the opposite. Due to systemic corruption autocracies are economically highly inefficient with low productivity across the board with all kinds of long term effects this brings. And while it might look bad for democracies at the moment, I think many of the current crop of autocracies will be short lived. In the end, economy is where it’s at, and autocracies are horrible at it.

You’re right. An even shittier reddit that failed due to extreme greed before? What’s the point?

This is the correct answer.

What federation protects from is the singular owner of the platform sweeping in and setting/enforcing new rules for some or all communities. This could still happen on one instance, but new instances can mitigate the effects. Single communities can still turn bad, but it will be up to the users to decide whether to stick around or move to other communities.

This attitude is exactly the problem. The current situation is new and unprecedented. Not seeing the difference is the type of ignorance that allowed this to happen in the first place.

I’ve noticed an uptik of pro Chinese propaganda content here on lemmy in recent days. I am afraid the fediverse had been discovered.

The beatings will continue until morale improves.

That is my impression, too.

The way things are going he will announce it tomorrow, likely via social media and without prior warning to the other NATO members.

Thank God I’m not on reddit anymore.

I’ve been using it for weeks and I think I’ll stick with it. It feels fresh and relaxed at the same time.
