Google is fine for most people, but it shouldn't be the sole backup. If you don't have (at least) 3 separate instances of a backup, you don't really have a reliable backup strategy. Preferably an onsite hard backup, an offsite hard backup, and a cloud backup.
It most likely triple counts users like me. I have a Mastodon, kbin, and Lemmy account, (all under the same username), but those would be counted as 3 Fediverse accounts. I think the metrics to look at are posts and comments.
I deleted 16 years worth of my 'content' across 6 handles and moved to Lemmy/kbin. When I do go back to check on Reddit, it's easy to see that many of the better contributors are gone, the quality of comments and posts, as well as the voting on posts, has greatly diminished. Some subs barely have anything in their 'new' queues.
Elon has clearly shown that I can trust him with my finances. I am excited to turn all my personal data and money over to his excellently designed software and highly ethical company. What could go wrong?
Autopilot systems on airplanes make fewer claims about autonomous operation than Tesla. No pilot relies completely on autopilot functionality.
The "X" stands for Extortion.
I'm sure the ego-less CEOs in large corporations will take kindly to being extorted. (/s)
He fired 1/3 of his entire staff, he probably planned on firing this guy anyway, and had nothing to do with fascism. Although, I'm surprised it didn't save his job.
Me, too. I used it this morning and it was awesome. Hope they get it back up soon.
The insurance companies and homeowners have now been fully awakened to the impending disasters that will be caused by climate change. Florida is screwed, and they're getting their wake-up call ahead of most other states.
I switched to FF a few years ago when my Chrome was showing some bloat. FF works for almost everything, but from time to time some sites, forms, e-commerce, etc., have issues with non-Chrome browsers. In that event, I use Edge.
People are actively seeking alternatives to Reddit right now, not just because of Reddit's draconian and short-sighted policies, but also because the quality of posts and comments has gone in the toilet lately. Also, the AI bots are becoming more and more obvious on Reddit. They have deployed an AI reply system into the comments, probably to make up for the decrease in traffic that could hurt their IPO.
I've referred numerous people here that want to leave the cesspool that Reddit has become. I've noticed a rapid shift in perception about the Fediverse. Just weeks ago, mentions of Lemmy and kbin would receive downvotes and negative comments. Now, they want to know more about alternatives.
Helped a guy and reduced landfill waste, all in one move. Time well spent.
