Google sieht das anscheinend anders, und löscht umstrittene Rezensionen gerne ohne Gerichtsentscheidungen

Oh, good to know! I will look at other options then

Subjectively speaking, after switching to Piefed I feel like “the internet is back”.

Engaging conversation, good tools for filtering the front page to your liking, and the audience seems generally speaking more mature. I do expect that to change if the platform grows in size.

They could’ve included in the title the amount of cybertrucks (2). Smells like clickbait

Thanks for bringing this to my attention! I installed both Organic Maps and Streetcomplete on my phone now.

Yeah I think it’s very subjective and this one anedcote is just that.

In Germany cash is preferred in most places, and that makes tracking payments difficult. This is not the case in most other european countries. That’s an another anecdote for you.

This sounds like a pretty good description of the situation.

I would add the seeming lack of true alternatives, as dems have repeatedly dropped the ball in the last few decades.

Pocket used to be on my list, but it was unfortunately shut down. Now Joplin web clipper took its place. I still miss Pocket.

This article was right up my alley. I’ve been considering buying a cheapo smartwatch. I suppose this one couldn’t be used as a mp3 player for jogging though.

It’s not a bug, it’s a feature

If you’re a musician, MiniDexed or if you’re into stage lights or otherwise need a DMX-controller: Qlc+

I don’t recommend RPi1 for Pi-hole… It’s underpowered and might become a network bottleneck. Speaking out of experience here

Glad to hear I’m not alone with these thoughts!

I propose, as a counter movement, automatic engagement; Instead of “liking” or “upvoting”, leave a comment every time you see something you support. And try to abstain from commenting on ragebait or otherwise intentional attention seeking. If enough people start doing this, the algorithm should start adapting to prefering more substantial or positive material, right? I know it sounds naive, but worth a shot!

Yeah, it seems fishy. I find it hard to believe every 5th desktop in Finland runs linux, while only about 10% MacOS.

Tobias Huch is not a part of the German government. This post title is nonsense.

Interesting to see what kind of a press statement Trump will put out as an excuse for not having a peace deal and for not following through with his threats

There was a hint of a possible motive though: "He was travelling with his brother, Kathiruddin, on horseback on the day he went missing. Police said a family feud had forced the two men to leave their home. " But yeah, seems like a pretty plausible accident.

I understand what you mean, and agree that not everything needs to be put in words. At the same time though, it’s really healthy to expose yourself to others even if you just write “I like the way you formulated this.” or “Makes sense, I hadn’t thought of it like this before”. That way it turns into a real discussion - a bit like in the real 3d world.

Up/ downvoting is basically anonymous and adds nothing to the discussion.

And, sometimes, other users misunderstand our comments, and then we need to respond to them to get our point through. All of this is a healthy way to challenge our thinking.

What do you mean with chat control BS? Care to share a link?

That being said, there are a lot of worrying politicians out there.

I don’t understand what your article has to do with privacy. I understood that is the framework of this conversation. Yes, there’s a lot of scary rightwing policing in Germany, but can we stay on topic?
