It's an opinion piece, they start out with their claim and try to back it up, it's not a news article, what is the problem?

It's like combat, companies like this see it as necessary to take every protective step possible, they have an inferior product so manipulation is the only way to maintain their monopoly

Facebook and others actively promote harmful content because they know it drives interactions, I believe it's possible to punish corps without making the internet overly policed.

To be fair they do say they "need to be" transparent, not that they were going to be :p

I've never noticed any defederation from my instance or drama aside from the main posts talking about it, and if you came here interested in a piracy community it's good for that, lemmy.dbzer0.com. "Lemmy.World" seems to be where all the drama happens hah. I have only ever made one account, interact with several different instances without issue. I agree using several accounts would be annoying.

There are crypto ads involved in the product though? Fuck that, even if it was default off

Wholesome to see people help, but the main feeling I get is revulsion that this person can have a wheelchair provided with insurance but can't even get proper functionality without paying.

The majority might not celebrate this murder directly, but support for the Republican party in the US is implicit support for dehumanization of trans people which inspires these murders. The policies and rhetoric used by the mainstream right-wing are responsible for this death.

If someone holds a gun to the head of your child, and you shoot the person to protect your child, who in this situation is normalizing the violence?
