A bigger problem than a technical alternative is convincing all of your friends to switch.

There are multiple other programs that fill a similar niche, but I don't know I'll be able to get everyone I know to change over.

I definitely will discontinue using Discord if they deploy this surveillance state bullshit, but a little bit sad over the number of gaming buddies I'll lose contact with in the process.

The idea that they've already deployed this in production is absolutely insane.

Are big businesses still advertising on Facebook? I'd heard that they were running ads for full-on scams, presumably because few real people are left on the platform and it's no longer attractive to most advertisers.

Yep, and Colbert has no reason to pull any punches either. They already canceled his show to appease the administration. Why would Stephen hesitate to tell the world every time CBS bends the knee?

Good on him for calling out every time they act as state propaganda and not a news network.

The people in power are the same ones who created DOGE. It's like Epstein - not like they're going to investigate themselves.

A lot of companies seem to automatically delist things that get mass reported, which makes them subject to interference by armies of paid or unpaid trolls. Hopefully the issue gets corrected but this seems to happen more and more frequently.

What do you have against the British overseas territory of Anguilla? Ultra-specific geographical prejudice.

There's a good 3blue1brown video that walks through the actual math they can perform, which does a lot to temper expectations about what they can accomplish and how much of an improvement they would be over digital computers for certain types of problems.

Here's the YouTube link, or search for "But What Is Quantum Computing? (Grover's Algorithm)" on your preferred front-end: https://youtu.be/RQWpF2Gb-gU
