They must have known Israel would retaliate heavily.

I wonder if their plan was to try and draw in other countries and create a large multi country war.

If so they seem to have failed.

It’s a fork of existing software so I seriously doubt it

We were all pretty cool with it all at the time tbh.

Plenty of us will still defend it, which is crazy.

All computer code is algorithms.

The point is without that personalisation it’s much less likely to show things you are interested in.

People complain about the algorithms on other social media but you can see here exactly why they have them.

Without them it becomes hard to get connected to things that interest you.

For Lemmy I’ve managed to build a decent feed by browsing all and subscribing to communities I like.

You just have to do the algorithms job now.

As for the big communities it’s exactly what happened to the old internet. It used to be a large collection of individual sites but discovery was hard. So the front pages of the internet started popping up.

I expect the same thing will happen to the fediverse eventually. It’s just a better user experience sadly.

They’ve existed much longer than social media hehe

The thing is some group of people must like it or people wouldn’t do it.

Chances are this is a “you aren’t the target audience” type deal.

Might be easier to use a capture card or similar to just record your pc.

In my experience nostalgia is about the memories around the item as much as the item itself.

When I think about the SNES I think about playing it with my older brother more than specific games.

But also the same with games. I remember mario fondly not because the graphics were great but my brother helping me with tricky levels and showing me tricks to get past bits.

Because many people can’t afford a diagnosis or don’t want to get an official one for fear it could be used against them.

Also finding other people that share your issues is incredibly comforting.

They should detect if you’re in the EU and auto report the sites haha

I donated my DNA to a research project. I have Crohn’s disease and type 1 diabetes. I’m likely autoimmune prone.

I get updates about what it’s used for. Usually trying to identify causes for autoimmune diseases. It feels good to help out the people fighting disease.

Much like anti Israel and antisemitism

That’s exactly why they created it.

Also as a rape survivor it allowed them to meet people without any real world risks.

I have type 1 diabetes and on bad days really struggle with brain fog.

Make sure you have all your tasks written down and organised, ideally in some form of project management software.

Things get easier the more programming you do. Once you’ve called a method for the 10,000s time you won’t need to think about it.

I find ChatGPT is really good for reminding you of syntax and things like that. No matter how many times I do it I can’t remember the ordering in a c# switch expression so I just ask for the syntax.

They also killed a huge amount of e-commerce sites with their sheer size. This isn’t really about tech more about their monopoly.

Negatively generalising the Jewish people is literally antisemitism. Like by definition.

Yeah because Amazon kills off all the competition.

No need for antisemitism mate.

Honestly I don’t really have a problem with this.

If they believe it’s bad for them then they are just taking steps to help with the habit.

It doesn’t hurt anyone.
