i am confused what OP wants to happen, i would probably say this is a change for the better that i would not mind for the sake of privacy?
just like subscribe to some ppl or something like,
the scream i scrumpt was so fucking loud 💕💙💗🩶
we seriously need some kind of disclaimer for what duck duck go is doing on y’all’s phones. i don’t even use the app and i’ve seen a dozen posts exactly like this.
TLDR: ddg includes data from ANY website you visit from within the app’s built-in browser in its results. since basically every modern website is also a privacy nightmare, this will show up in ddg’s statistics
ppl just choose not to be responsible
you should look into some common causes of car accident, which include:
cars are safer than theyve ever been
overall, my position is the same as yours: the average driver is WILDLY unfit to operate a multiton chunk of metal on a daily basis.
however, it is wildy unrealistic to hope against hope that one day, every driving person will wake up and realize that they should drive safe. there has to be systemic effort, whether thats reduction in cars, increase in mandatory car training or increased access to public transport, in order to see systemic improvement.
while you are factually correct that the human is a part of the chain of blame, it is systemically inefficient to blame the driver
in order to make systemic change and make cars safer, we CANNOT say “oh lol drivers fault, get good.” expecting that order of change from hoards of people is unrealistic.
however if i blame unsafely sized cars, fast, wide unsafe roads, a failure of US public transport—these are also realistic points of systemic change that i can point to.
tldr cars are unsafe, cars need to get safer, no amount of blaming the driver will solve things
the car absolutely kills people. that same big mac licking driver on a bike or bus or scooter causes 0 deaths. it’s the cars
what you are saying is true if you entirely ignore the power of a majority market share and the demand that puts on small developers.
even if it’s not universal demand, all you need is a slight majority.
see what happened, for example, with xmpp: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html
no, defederation does not “just” do those things
defederation refuses to give them an in to slowly make changes to the platform that will eventually give way to a centralized power dynamic over the whole fediverse

no of course not, third-party apps and unpaid mods have been supporting reddit for ages though 👍
if my securely generated password to example.com gets leaked in a data breach, my only options are to ignore the leak or regenerate all my passwords with a new master password?
i don’t think this works for me
exactly my point–neither of these (excellent) sites will show up in your standard google search because they have the integrity not to abuse SEO
wish i knew, maybe something with AI?
the reality is that current-day SEO isn’t even Optimization, it’s Lying. try googling a recipe or an alternative to a popular software and see how the first four pages are all ad-ridden, useless spam-bot articles designed to retain users rather than give them the information they are looking for
SEO as a concept needs to die. dont get me wrong i want Lemmy to show up in google results but doing that by spamming keywords and unrelated “related” posits is not the move
is there a tool that makes searching archive.org reddit (etc) posts easier?
honestly we should have collectively realized way earlier that putting all the useful, readable, un-touched-by-SEO help content for basically every niche hobby fandom and ideology in the hands of one for-profit entity was not very wisdom-pilled of us
same reason this all started in the first place, unlike you and me spez sees reddit as entirely independent of its community
to this guy, community is a tool that can be balanced and leveraged rather than central to his brand’s identity
pr strategy, it’s the user’s fault, make investors and employees fear and hate the user mob and not the poor defenseless company
i dont know a single child who has the same fears kids in movies do
