  • Lemmy.world Should Defederate with Threads

    Jump

  • I'm copying pasta from my previous reply on other post

    Once they can interact with your account, they can pull your data into their server and analyzing it to deliver ads campaign.

    Just look at this

    They can connect the point of interest based on their users interactions with other users on other instances. It doesn't matter even if you don't use their apps, they just need to connect the points.

    Whenever an account from Threads upvote/ downvote or reply to your comments/posts or vice versa, Meta will analyze that and they can sell ads based on your political leanings, gender, geo-location, hobbies, marital status etc.

    That's the options from what I saw on fb ads dashboard years ago. If you're from US, that options are broader and more detailed.

  • Dear server admins, please defederate threads.net. Dear users, ask your server admin to defederate threads.net.

  • Adam Mosseri spells out Threads’ plans for the fediverse | The head of Instagram says a full integration with the fediverse could take ‘the better part of a year’

    Jump

  • In the view of Suckerberg and Mosseri : In the future there will be no Fediverse exist, only Threadverse

  • Google Promises Unlimited Cloud Storage; Then Cancels Plan; Then Tells Journalist His Life’s Work Will Be Deleted Without Enough Time To Transfer The Data

    Jump

  • I'm not trying to blame him, but more than 200 TB of data on cloud storage? Holy cow, I wouldn't even trust it to store more than 5 GB of data.

  • Threads is making moves for Mastodon integration

    Jump

  • That's OP's opinion and some users here, but I don't praise it and I don't think it will be good for fediverse in the future. People will start using Threads app since they can interact with other fediverse instance. And there will be more drama and more toxic content just like on fb, twitter, tiktok and ig.

    This is even more concerning

    I will consider to stop using lemmy..

  • I wish there were more articles about tech not tech biz

    Jump

  • I can post any technology related outside of tech biz but mostly it's not a popular thing here, many of articles are too technical, hardly any discussion, even worse there are articles that you won't like it. For example, I can post the good thing about EVs today and another day I can post the downside of EVs battery to environment, and I get the heat.

    Posting in niche community? Not enough MAU, I'v tried in c/collapse, c/cybersecurity etc, no discussion.

    c/technology is just a mirror of r/technology

  • Xiaomi won't give Android updates if you unlock your bootloader

    Jump

  • Well, that's fine I don't use MIUI at all 🤷‍♂️

  • Microsoft may replace the Start button with the Copilot AI in Windows 12

    Jump

  • Yikes!!

  • Microsoft now pops up a poll asking why you'd want to use another browser when you download Chrome

  • This is the way, or even better use LibreWolf

  • Brave appears to install VPN Services without user consent

    Jump

  • I have deleted the previous post, but there seems to be a synchronization problem with other instances

  • Microsoft to kill off VBScript in Windows to block malware delivery

    Jump

  • Yup, I was the guy who wrote vba script to calculate performance of network mobile and export chart to ppt files.

    Many critcal engineering and financial calculations rely on vba scripts

  • lemmy.ml and hexbear.net has been banned in China

    Jump

  • Windows Copilot's is showing third-party Ads to Windows users

    Jump

  • Right? You bought the OS but you still get ads. Even worse, it sends your data to MS servers

  • [Lemmy active users] 28th of September was the only day with more monthly active Lemmy users than the previous one, probably thanks to the release of Boost for Lemmy

  • Welcome!

  • Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian?

    Jump

  • The creator kept a low profile during the reddit emigration. And since there were posts and comments about China, CCP and Jinping too. I thought it will be fine 👀

  • Is lemmy.ml turn into authoritarian?

    Jump

  • The problem is that lemmy.ml is the front page of the lemmy project, and I knew that dessalines are politically leftist.

    Since reddit emigration to lemmy, the guy keeping a low profile and there were posts and comments about China, CCP and Jinping but they were not deleted. And there are c/technology and c/privacy communities on lemmy.ml, someone might post high-tech surveillance over activists or Uyghurs.

    And this move doesn't look good for the lemmy project itself.
