I think super-apps are the way to go, only way to prevent one company from monopolizing click-stream data for advertising.

some apps already do this and their users don't suffer from the same issue (granted, they have different issues)

Hi, could you touch on why F-Droid is less safe? Is it because they package (I think that's the term?) stuff themselves?

Yeah, fair. It can't delete your messages to the extent a centralized system, and that's an indication of the lack of centralized control? It's a different threat model I think many find satisfying (though perhaps not most).

Yeah, my b, I was a little provoked there, watching lectures is one of my favorite pastimes :3

I don't think they are federated? Neither is the other big community whatever it's called.

i think the notion of 'convincing' is the issue. it really needs to be done by men, it's not as though what women are saying is factually incorrect or the content is off, it's often the opposite i find. when i say what women or feminists i respect say i always seem to get a better response than if a woman said it or the original author said it.

it's such a shame, there's already a ton of work done by a sizeable proportion of the population and it's ignored or misconstrued :/

i think so, even if it isn't stuff like "hot" or "active" definitely are

i don't think it's ok for people to laugh at an abuse victim. i also don't think it is as important to work on at present compared to other issues. it's a shame it happens, and i think there are other battles to fight first; like boys for some reason (from the evidence from research i gathered) needing more like physical activity in schools and doing much better when they aren't tied to a desk all day. something like this is important, because testing indicates boys are getting worse especially recently in stuff like math and general literacy.

Do you think it's because more people seem to defend or put stock in the elf slave stuff as being ok?

[-] JohnDoe@lemmy.myserv.one 2 points 9 months ago

Ah yes very fair. I did not do a close reading and missed that, I did not notice or see how careful you were with your language, your explanation is much appreciated!

They might be saying that they don't give the same weight to the kinds of information on 'the same news' perhaps because there's other stuff he's paying attention to. Idk, that sounds pretty reasonable to me. I think it's easy to say people at the top of the political pyramid don't value human lives the same as those at the base.

I remember they used to own Lenovo. Ngl, I feel that it's thrived after it was sold, their Yoga line and novel products are very interesting.
