For me i suppose using a platform such as a microblogging site or something akin to discord (fuck discord tho) has proved productive to find new people whom i can connect with and hold informative and intimate, rather long-form conversations with.
Look, can we really blame the desperate, especially people suffering from mental health issues, to seek help that they can? i feel that the only solution to problems like these are better health care, which means proper and rigorous scientific and ethical education on the subject and proper support system and establishment for health care services

The third-party doctrine is a United States legal doctrine that holds that people who voluntarily give information to third parties—such as banks, phone companies, internet service providers (ISPs), and e-mail servers—have "no reasonable expectation of privacy" in that information.
A lack of privacy protection allows the United States government to obtain information from third parties without a legal warrant and without otherwise complying with the Fourth Amendment prohibition against search and seizure without probable cause and a judicial search warrant.[1]
Anyone remember that there used to be an alternative app to instagram that was called something like "I Heart Things" ?
what even happened to it, im not able to find any record of it.
Kind reminder: your whole internet traffic, encryption, backups, communication, shopping, writings, business interaction, etc are transferred through your router.
Many internet service providers across Europe impose their own routers to consumers. This is a clear contradiction with the 🌐 Net Neutrality principle.
I think this is largely a reflection of what kind of people youtube comment sections attract. Its a system of broadcast validation where people looking for some innocent attention and validation may make the same emulated, generic comment to get some sense of intellectual significance.
AFAIK theyre undergoing structural changes in the development and funding at the same time as this. Idk if that affects it or not, but may be a relevant factor.
I agree with you, i still am willing to engage in an academic dialogue on how this could be considered as right-wing and what constitutes “isolated” instances.
I am extremely confused by this post. If i was talked to about my post and given enough reasons to remove it, i would have happily done so. Calling me a fascist and a right wing for one post smells so horribly of bad faith.

By 2018, less than 60% of web traffic was human & half of YouTube views were bots masquerading as people. This wild article is about how much of the Internet is fake. - Toot by sheril@mastodon.social
they hired a surveillance officer, disgustingly trolled people trying to raise concern over it, their CEO said that the fediverse was using discord to run a hate campaign against the organization.
in that sense have you checked out swisscows? It claims privacy too and probably has its own crawler, i want to know of your opinion on it given that you do have more experience with studying search engines than i do.
I primarily use searx.work for now, as a metasearch engine and i like it.
how about they focus on their browser and work on developing ethical toolsets that destroy the need for something like chatgpt (gross)
