Feedly is really out here pretending they didn't just advertise "track[ing] strikes that pose a risk to company assets"

@molly0xfff weird how gaslighting is just the outward (PR) language of tech companies now

@molly0xfff
This excuse is such a lie. If you are sending assets, as Feedly referred to human correspondents, to cover unrest in some part of the world, telling them there is unrest means that there is still a story to cover. They are still good to go!

Does Feedly want us to believe they are selling technology that can make the right call on some of the riskiest and most volatile job situations, and then refer to the benefits as assets and not human lives? They already forgot what they wrote.

@molly0xfff Oh good god d*** it.

It’s like reading server logs but they’re intentionally trolling.

if you're trying to migrate off feedly, here's how to export an .opml file to import all of your feeds into a new RSS reader

if you want to get a sense of some of the impact of this change, just look at the quote tweets 💔

Well, at least they're giving a warning this time. That's an improvement.

@molly0xfff

this seems specifically targeted to kill the golden goose

who wants to stay on a Twitter without Possum Every Hour, or whatever whimsical bot makes it kinda nice to check in?

@molly0xfff many apps that interact with it's API had problems even before this announcement and may have been deliberate: techdirt.com/2023/01/13/latest

Remember photobucket? Controversial changes that happened in 2017 that broke 1000s of images on the internet by putting "off site hosting" behind a paywall. They did soften this policy a bit, but that's just one feature of the many useful features that were stripped out.

if you are at all able (or able to learn), i highly recommend:
• creating your own website
• on your own domain
• acquiring copies of your data that you care about that's on third party sites (particularly twitter)

i am much more willing to be a chaos gremlin on twitter knowing i have my own platform-of-one to fall back on, and it's freeing
