Some of that is from management being strict about following the procedures we have to make sure every step is followed or we get in trouble so even if someone seems knowledgable we have to treat them like they aren’t

as a former tech support person I think the reason why its usually like that is that most of the people who call in are people don’t know how to use a computer at least it was for the company I worked at

Why were these things allowed before?

Wtf

It appers that this website shows any domain that has been blocked but doesnt remove them when they get unblocked

I still see mstdn.social blocking mastodon.art

Yea I was annoyed that they were making me sign up for google+ for my youtube account so I never tried it I just set it up so I could keep using youtube.

does anybody else’s dogs get as close to you as possible then pretend to sleep and peak at the food occasionally

I mean legaly you’re right but free speech as a concept still applies to private companies they just dont have to follow it

Tbf voting with money also seems futile

They made the admins sign nda’s so its unlikely we will hear anything about it

I don’t expect my data to be fully deleted in a centralized system either. even if it was deleted from the central server someone might have mad an archive of it

and reddit is defiantly guilty of this since they were bringing back peoples deleted comments and accounts

Still better than anything in my area

You remove the downvotes you juat get people more people in the comments with “you’re an idiot” or whatever instead of just a downvote.

It’s not like those kinds of comments are really that nuanced or helpfull either.

I’m guessing its because they were used to doing that on reddit

I think the us is worse because I live there they might use this data against me what can china do to me?

If you live In china though…

I feel like the problem with moving away from youtube is that the larger chanels making money off of it arent going to want to move because they wont get monitized if they do. If they do move it will probably be to another corperate platform.

I really dont like what youtube is planning on doing by restricting adblockers and adding more unskippable ads though. Hopefully that moves at least some people to peertube.

test

its still not working for posts for me It was working before so I am not sure what changed I think it does work for comments though

does a comment/post really need hundreds of comments saying similar things it also helps to hide spam content and trolls

Theres a userscript that alows you to collapse the comments

when I worked at walmart some people would get so offended if I suggested wearing the opposite genders clothes even if the item was basically the same for males and females.

a polo shirt for men is cheaper and you’re probably just wearing it because of your workplace why does it matter?
