even when the departments that made it up admit they made it up.

i mean a source that backs up the claims you made, sea lion

cccp gonna cccp

twitter is american based, only america can subpoena their servers….
with tiktok, china can mess with their servers

just the fact that .ml stands for marxist leninist is all you need to know….
marxism has some good points, some very bad ones… leninism doesn’t and is hardly a thing anyways

oh well i will expect a source for this lie any minute… go ahead

because the Chinese public isn’t supposed to know about it… plus people might demand more ethically produced phones if they were more aware.

seeing that you’re from lemmy.ml, stfu….

but, it’s not propaganda, it proven facts… there are photos and leaked surveillance videos, it’s very real.
it’s not “bigotry”, which is such a laughable claim… i love chinese people and DON’T want them to suffer… it’s the absolute opposite of bigotry

thou shalt not say things that are censored in china….

that’s not what they’re saying, they’re saying even if they were chinese propaganda, it would be protected under the first amendment for americans to read what they want and make their own decisions….

but, nice 4th grader logic you got there.

i’m not interested in willful ignorance

it made headlines… simply google it.
also, his farewell speech was all warnings….
also, you’re a twat

biden and harris both called him a fascist… a lot

they’ve said a lot of statements of caution

imho: UX-wise.
a: marketing, the name Mastodon is not in common usage, at all… it’s named after a (very cool) metal band… i love it, but your avg chap will hear “mastodon” and wrinkle their nose and move on in the sea of infinite new apps that are shinier… i think this hurt Diaspora a lot as well… at the end of the day, it’s a social network and people have to actually talk about it…
like, regular schmoe’s who don’t love new words have to drunkenly say at a bar “hey add me on ____” and bluesky is so so much better for that.
… remember, regular sports bar types need to say it to each other… grandma’s in nursing homes need to be comfortable with it.
“federated” is a big word and concept, but still the best word for it… after decentralized….
….
b: probably bigger but Jack Dorsey is kinda touted as this super moral tech luminary, even though he quit bluesky for centralizing, he still added a lot of weight to that critical mass a social network needs to achieve to be useful at all.
….
c. actual UI: trying to tag a username and instance is pretty cumbersome… on twitter or insta or most things, you can type @username and tag anyone, on lemmy it’s not as big of a deal because it’s little forums organized around posts, instead of posts organized around users… on a microblogging or friend-network thing like diaspora, it’s just not easy enough.
like, granny in the nursing home isn’t going to type !sonnyboy@dopemastonny.federaloo.org… or get all that….
if you don’t abstract all that away, regular users will be afraid and you’ll get mostly techies and people ideologically motivated to join….
and of course, most of the ideologically motivated ones will take bluesky as close enough… especially because it’s gotten big enough….

think about how you asked this when you have the internet at your fingertips….
google it
