Gregory's Server@atomicpoet @pixelfed @matrix @dansup @mike @fediversenews my first reaction to hearing about facebook trying to join the fediverse was "hahaha nobody will federate with them", then i saw droves of folks essentially saying the same thing - so it'll be really interesting to see what happens, because the mammoth trojan horse they're wheeling up to the door sure has a lot of kind words hamfistedly slopped on the side, but you can plainly see cambrige analytica inside through the slats.

 @atomicpoet when i said 'mammoth', i didnt mean 'the app', i was describing the size of this illustrative trojan horse. @Viss @atomicpoet @pixelfed @matrix @dansup @mike @fediversenews What would be the point, anyway? Without corporate-favourable algorithms to market/control people's online feeds.  @zhuk Meta can build relevancy algorithms for their own Fediverse services. Nothing stops them. @atomicpoet @zhuk This is the real threat that we need to fight. Every software has its algorithms, but in the fediverse we must not accept servers that abusively manipulate the feeds of their users. If the relevance algorithm is kept secret – or even somehow patented – ban the software! |
@Viss Sorry, @mammoth is not on par with Meta whatsoever.
