I really hope it works out as smoothly as this, it feels like advertising sneaks it’s way in somehow though. 😣

[-] callyral@kbin.social 26 points 1 year ago

It's not and I'm Lovin' It. The Fediverse I mean. Want to defederate from corporate ads? Just Do It. Have It Your Way and Make Every Second Count.

Really, you just need to Think Different.

This is the most beautifully crafted comment I’ve read all day. Bravo!

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I haven’t seen any ads thus far on lemmy and it’s pretty great.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I’m more worried about the advertisers sneaking in through “bragging” about products, like Reddit saw. 😣

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Bragging? I’m not familiar with this. What does that mean in terms of advertising?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 8 points 1 year ago

It's a form of guerrilla advertising where they play on FOMO and try to make people jealous of someone who is "loving" the product. It's one of the harder forms of shilling to detect because it can sound just like a regular person who actually does enjoy a specific product.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Exactly this. It’s made me a pessimist online, and offline.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

I’ll admiit, bragging wasn’t the right word, but I meant all the PR teams the enshittify social media like fleas, by pretending to be a run of the mill user, attempting to build hype.

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Oh I get what you mean.

Yeah I tried to google what a good free VPN was and all the Reddit posts were OBVIOUS plants by VPNs that wanted you to pay for them.

I found a free one eventually but Reddit was no help.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Exactly, with SEO it’s like wading through a septic tank these days.

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Not to sound like an idiot but I don’t know what SEO is either.

[-] TheGoldenGod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Sorry, Search Engine Optimization. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Search_engine_optimization

Ruined Google search results, now it’s mostly spam.

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Oh yeah. It’s annoying as fuck. Every service we used to take for granted is just becoming a big add.

My man, have you met our lord and saviour hypnotoad?

[-] 0nXYZ@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

⚡️😵‍💫⚡️

[-] LouNeko@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

So all the Sync posts aren't ads in disguise?

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I haven't seen a pop up or a banner ad; but I've seen plenty of ads in the form of a creator trying to sell their creation and other shill stuff. Not nearly as often as on Reddit, but it's not something you can escape from on social media.

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I’m fine with that. I just don’t want to be reminded that hellofresh exists every five minutes.

[-] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t know what a sync post is either man haha
