There's nothing ambiguous about this. Give me a break. We're demanding that social media companies stop deliberately driving negativity and extremism to get clicks. This has fuck all to do with free speech. What they're doing isn't "free speech", it's mass manipulation, and it's very deliberate. And it isn't disclosed to users at any point, which also makes it fraudulent.

It's incredibly ironic that you're accusing people of an effort to control expression when that's literally what social media has been doing since the beginning. They're the ones trying to turn the world into a dystopia, not the other way around.

I don't think you understand the issue. I'm very disappointed to see that this is the top comment. This wasn't an accident. These social media companies deliberately feed people the most upsetting and extreme material they can. They're intentionally radicalizing people to make money from engagement.

They're absolutely responsible for what they've done, and it isn't "by proxy", it's extremely direct and deliberate. It's long past time that courts held them liable. What they're doing is criminal.

The issue is that Meta's intention is to extinguish the fediverse, not to add to it. I can't believe people are still falling for this tactic.

I don't get these people. They knowingly chose to work for Meta after everything that company's done. You don't get to pretend you're the good guy anymore. They're by far the most evil big tech company on the planet and that says a fucking lot when you're up against MS, Oracle, Google and Apple

Oh so just more anti-science bullshit so they can choke down bribes from the meat industry.

I think it's better to say that Newtonian physics is incomplete rather than wrong.

Says the guy who just believes whatever bullshit climate deniers make up. Imagine being so ignorant that you're not aware we stopped using CFCs decades ago and that's why there's no hole in the ozone layer anymore. Fucking moron.

We need workers rights more than legal weed, but you'll notice the Democrats never talk about that.

They should be fined for this too. Deliberately obfuscating the solution isn't compliance.

Firefox and chromium both outperform Safari in performance tests, or roughly the same depending on the setup.

It's Safari that's the third rate browser. No one would use that shit if it hadn't been forced on them and if the other vendors weren't restricted by Apple.

There's a reason Apple stopped making Safari for other platforms. It never caught on, 'cause it sucks. Safari can't compete without Apple kneecapping the competition. They're like a sports team that can't win without playing on their home turf at 10000 ft altitude where they pump in crowd noise and drug the other team's gatorade

Oh give me a break with this nonsense. Android has an 80% global market share, your average dipshit uses it just fine. It also "just works" and very frequently works better than iOS.

Safari is a shit tier browser when it comes to web standards and performance. It's hilarious how iOS users try so hard to justify blowing $1000 on a phone when an Android 1/2 of the price does exactly the same thing and is just as easy to use. Why can't you just enjoy your apple garbage without having this weird superiority complex?
