I recently switched to "new comments". That ensures I get a healthy mix of new and old, and get to see as many different threads as I can.

no, we are posting to a community on lemmy.ml here, that link points to a community hosted on lemmy.world (as displayed on lemmy.ml)

idc because neither of those is my instance, I subscribe to communities regardless of what instance they're hosted on

the internet used to be filled with videos of ISIS etc. beheading people

I have literally never come across such a video. I am sure there are such videos somewhere online, and have been in the past too, but equally I am sure that no ordinary web user is likely to accidentally come across them.

Do you really not see that this is literally just "we are the good guys so it is ok if we do it"?

"Misinformation" is whatever those in power decide to be such, whether it can be found on Signal or X or wherever, and whether the ones deciding it are in power in the UK, the US, India, Germany, Venezuela, or Russia.

Donald Trump is 78 years old, that is not unheard of that people might die at that age of entirely natural causes.

the senator with the snowball, did you really never see that

I'm familiar enough with Wikipedia to know that, yeah. I am also familiar enough with Wikipedia to know that there are topic areas (such as Israel/Palestine and the Holocaust in Poland on the English-language version) where the shortcomings of the wiki system are completely evident. Once you have to restrict editing to users with more than 500 edits and make special rules how to handle sourcing, it's clear that the wiki just isn't a suitable mechanism: if there are so many people wanting to write about a topic that you have to do that, then why not abandon the wiki concept altogether?

The greatest success story of the wiki principle isn't Wikipedia, nor any other Wikimedia project. The greatest success story of the wiki principle is OpenStreetMap, which does limit itself to objective facts and is used not just by people, but also organizations. I work as a software developer and I've encountered usages of OpenStreetMap data many times, but of anything on Wikimedia projects? Wikipedia is great for teenagers to get an overview of the world, but everyone who actually needs the information in it has better sources for it anyway.

LinkedIn has been very useful for me. But there are probably also various career websites specific to your country.

Not to my knowledge. There are websites where that is the case, like most wikis and Stack Exchange, but not reddit.

I don't see that big a difference there tbh. The WMF nowadays also has a paid trust and safety team like a social media platform.

Austria, late 20s, I currently own a manual transmission car, so obviously yes.
