Crypto Bros Losers would be really mad at reading that, if they weren't busy fellating the owners of BoredApes after they made them blind.
...
What? No, that's not a joke.

"Had a good time with the homies who also got their eyes burned". These people are unbelievably down there in the pathetic human scale.
I prefer transmuting goblin to gold. Quite a curious spell, only works on those who mock magic.
No one. This is just a thread for terminally online religious fanatic teenagers who forgot to pick a religion. That's why they care so much and use 4chan-loanes words like Janny.
Normal people will take a look, hear about how people want to fuck simba, and just move on.
If anyone wants to break ChatGTP the easiest way, right now it's to ask it to do riddles until it gets stuck in the fire or water riddles. They're extremely similar, and extremely typical of a generic riddle format, and ChatGTP.... Mixes up the two all the time.
My comment will be use to train and reinforce AI: Peepee poopoo
If I'm only browsing top, I switch to .ml since I had an account there months ago
Remember how they took gold awards, a user made bot, and monetized it?
Any password restriction that LOWERS entropy is a bad restriction.
No, I'm not answering the question, I know. But I'm answering the better question, which is "is this a stupid thing to ask of a password?", and yes it is.
You're saying this... On Lemmy. You do know we have three different "trending" settings here, right?
I honestly much prefer the idea of a chronological feed too, but disagree that's what kills a platform. Tumblr has both the chronological and the trending for you/for all, and it was also ignored.
I feel what you feel, and I agree with the dehumanizing comparison, but it is what it is. I just can't understand the mentality of the herd because it highlights a completely different set of priorities from that of good social media environment. So I hold that comparison to all its negative contempt.
Threads comes up with minimal advertising and people join it without really caring what it does and how well it does. It comes with many of the same usability and content discoverability issues that Twitter had on a its worst of days. The hierarchy of sponsored content vs follower content vs follower interaction vs follower-of-follower content vs whatever the hell further down this clown parade Threads openly does is just completely whack. And it is still just as obfuscated as the rest in terms of being favored by its algorithm, plus monetization of content is a complete question mark. And yet people still join, and not any random person, but the every-person and the famous and the political. AOC herself ignores Mastodon and makes up an excuse, but is on Threads day one.
And Why? Why join a mediocre, underbaked, and by the numbers platform that basically doesn't even innovate on the previous one? Because of the promise.
The promise it could be "The Next Big Thing".
Not saying I'm above it. Not saying there's superiority in standing to opposition to this or anything. For every thing I care about here, there will be many other things I don't and where I frustrate someone. But it still does make me overall more jaded about the world regardless.
There goes the largest no stupid questions community. Bah. They'll be back in a day or two, I know, but bah.
I think this is the perfect opportunity to plug to everyone the concept of password managers and other basic web security concepts.
Not just worse, it's also extremely dependent on instance choice when you first try to build your circle of follows. Having to follow people to find people to follow to find further people to follow makes that first step the most important, and Mastodon's vision of an "Everything" feed is a disorganized mess. Intentionally, for anti-viral reasons.
The reason that's an actual huge issue is that instance choice is also, easily, the highest barrier of entry to a new user. People are CONFUSED by it. Which means that if someone who would be in earnest willing to try Mastodon and give it time, may still end up coming out with a bad impression if they made a mistake with the prior step and couldn't figure the right second and third step to overcome the hurdle.
Meanwhile, here on lemmy, our choice of instance is largely irrelevant. The only change we get on our "All" feeds is just a couple top posts, so we may not have the same starting position, but we do have something in the same ballpark.
This whole conversation is and was tiresome to have, honestly. I did see people try to solve it, but even there they'd run their onboarding environments built by mastodon users counter to what newcomers may want. For example, I saw this web wizard that would quiz me on my region and languange and also slur-censoring preferences... when all of that stuff is completely irrelevant to me - I look up entertainment communities by topics FIRST, not social philosophy, and specially not by regional peers, because fuck my regional peers.
Anyways, point was... Everyone I know who actually stuck to Mastodon... Have mastodon.social accounts. Exclusively. But here, people are already spread between .ml, sh.itjust.works and .world.
Discoverability was largely the reason why I got in fights with Mastodon users over the platform being in a bad place when Twitter had its first wave of musk awfulness.
I find that the system is now much improved, but man, I can't stress out just how bad an impression I was given that everyone seemed to think searching posts by tags was a bad thing, and that tags in general were, in fact, objectively broken at the time. Like, people go on social media with purposes in mind.
It's fixed now. Tag activity is shown correctly. Tag history also gets shown correctly. You can also follow tags. That's all I wanted, and acknowledgement of it, not a philosophy discourse.
In fact, I'm tempted to say I WANT people to know I'm not the one downvoting them when I disagree.
Honestly, Docket with a GUI just becomes super easy I actually got a bit spoiled. Used to use Kitematic, which even had a browser, but that's gone. I'm back to terminal only now, but alas.
There's a video that shows exactly this phenomenon in real time.
The most important people are the first followers. A website with a guy commenting alone is sad for the guy. A website with a couple people commenting is sad for whoever's not talking.
