No, he’s part of the US oligarchy. Don’t criticize too much or you might happen to have sudden, unexplainable tech problems and legal trouble. /s

All three browsers recommended are Chromium-based as well, so they’re dependent on Google and have to suffer from the Manifest v3 problem and the necessary manual intervention. Brave even is known for being maintained by a dick. Some of those recommendations are really bad.

Don’t get your second question though. The reasons for non-US should be obvious.

Now if we could just get rid of all those power-hungry dicks who keep poisoning the human spirit, let it be with Capitalism, Maoism, Neoliberalism and whatnot…

Thing is, the concern about RedNote is completely valid. Even if you strip away any overarching US propaganda or whatever, we know that the CCP does really, really shitty things as well and take heavy, manipulative influence (yes yes, the US and its defacto Feudal Lords owning Meta etc. do so too).

I’m just angry people won’t take their time to look into this whole topic and go with more propaganda-resistant, federated alternatives. Not perfect, but better than a centralized service that can be influenced by either China or the US. Or Russia… or literally anyone. So that we can, in the end, just dance to some nice human music.

Can confirm. Meddled with it a little bit a while ago trying to productively use it to host Lutris installer files. It’s an absolute mess; slow, unreliable, without proper documentation and a really bad default node application.

Also it managed to get our server temporarily banned by the hosting provider since the “sane default settings” includes the node doing a whole sweep of your local subnet on all NICs respectively, knocking at multiple ports of every device it can find. Because the expected environment of a node apparently is your home network… a default setting that caused problems for many people for many years by now.

A project like in this post might benefit from looking at more modern/mature reimplementations of IPFS’ concept, like Veilid (which would also offer additional features as well).

Like every time a country conducts genocide people close their eyes and don’t want to admit that, facing such crimes against humanity, every single Israeli has the duty to do whatever they can to stop their government. No matter if its a Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Jinping, Putin or Netanyahu (or some political conglomerate), and no matter where the injustice and moral corruption began or what once was, the people have to stand up against a corrupt system at that point. Of they don’t they are indeed complicit, every single time.

Personalized propaganda is quite something these days.

It’s a US “non-profit”. One that demands 19$ per article which they merely provide as aggregator, they don’t own shit.

Utterly absurd.

Wow. So every theatre show of classics like Romeo & Juliet is a degraded experience. I’m not sure Nintendo bosses understand what “art” is.

I’d like to see memes that are embracing the left but with a clear cut against authoritarianism. This one is too ambiguous.
