You can block twitch ads. I literally never see them. Use https://github.com/pixeltris/TwitchAdSolutions/blob/master/vaft/vaft.user.js with Tampermonkey.

Brendan Eich is a little bitch.

Spoiler: Its just to generate more state revenue.

Lemmygrad is cancer and hurts this platform. Defederate.

Even worse is the mods of [email protected] will arbitrarily delete posts/comments critical of Russia/China/tankies.

Now the east coast can suffer incredibly mediocre hamburgers and fries.

Facebook will no doubt be creating shadow profiles of every fediverse account it comes across and there’s nothing you can do about it.

Your original post made it seem like anyone has access to this data.

Literally anyone can access this data. It’s not private at all just by the way ActivityPub works.

Something like Monero’s Ring Signatures might provide some inspiration for truly private upvote history without duplication.

Oh god, the other primary Lemmy instance is run by tankies? Yikes.

I’d assume any actions by Facebook are hostile and are attempts to Embrace, extend, and extinguish

The strategy’s three phases are:

• Embrace: Development of software substantially compatible with a competing product, or implementing a public standard.
• Extend: Addition and promotion of features not supported by the competing product or part of the standard, creating interoperability problems for customers who try to use the “simple” standard.
• Extinguish: When extensions become a de facto standard because of their dominant market share, they marginalize competitors that do not or cannot support the new extensions.
