We're RIGHT HERE

You have been site-banned from .ml

[evotech@lemmy.world]

Content sure, but not where you are when you posted it and other meta data

[yokonzo@lemmy.world]

I guess but aren't people saying that's basically still in alpha?

[acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org]

how do you get this overview for the bans?

[cm0002@lemmy.world]

[instance]/modlog

For you it would be lemmy.sdf.org/modlog

Though you can go to any instance modlog to see modlog from any other instance as long as the instances modlog your viewing is federated with the other instance.

For example lemmy.world/modlog does not show hexbear entries because .world is defed'd from hex beat but sdf's modlog will show hexbear entries

I see, thanks

TikTok doesn't want the data of the average person becaue they aren't valuable in any way.

TikTok is being blocked because they can manipulate their algorithm to feed influencers to them that push pro-Chinese stances.

Imagine a hypothetical hot war between the US and China where China is telling a significant number of the US population what to think. I specifically say it that way becaue I don't believe any US company has a significant user base is China.

I don't even .... Just odd.

Ptime example:

[watty@lemm.ee]

I used to think that the perceived complexity of the fediverse was creating a hurdle for more adoption.

Now all these fucking people are learning Chinese to better use RedNote.

Apparently convenience isn't actually a barrier? I'm baffled why so many people are flocking to anything other than the fediverse.

Fediverse fanboys when they realise that their obscure and socially complex software isn't know by many people specially outside of the tech bubble, and that it's not the same experiences that they will get with their known platforms:

[p4ulin_kbana@lemmy.eco.br]

I like your welcoming attitude! /s

[p4ulin_kbana@lemmy.eco.br]

You forgot .ml

[unknown1234_5@kbin.earth]

and TikTok forced so much uninteresting content and ads that you got to a good video just as fast, and features beyond the videos are irrelevant.

[nroth@lemmy.world]

I think it's probably marketing more than convenience

[jodanlime@midwest.social]

I agree. You have to either be in the tech sphere or privacy sphere to know about fediverse apps. Outside of reddit refugees I don't think anyone using the normal apps know about fediverse options or what that even means to be decentralized. I don't think it's really a functionality or convenience issue, we really need our own special interest groups or something to help with fedi app branding and PR. Not sure if that is even something that is crowd sourceble?

[rigatti@lemmy.world]

I'm not a TikTok user, but that's like the opposite of what I've heard from my friends who use it.

[gravitas_deficiency@sh.itjust.works]

On that note, I’d be shocked if one or more of the alphabet agencies haven’t developed a half-duplex version of the fediverse platforms purely for surveillance purposes. The openness of the ecosystem is really nice, but the default promiscuity of the protocols in question does have some specific and notable drawbacks.
