  1. The alcohol is working
  2. Cloudflare’s services sit between most consumer and host traffic on the web and as a result have deep visibility into utilization. One of their public reports is which domains are most popular. Twitter is currently #37th, having been #32nd just 6 months ago https://radar.cloudflare.com/domains I’m not sure it’s all that compelling of a datapoint without understanding what’s happening with the other domains on the list in its orbit. But, it’s a nice graph for dunking, so carry on
  3. 1) obviously not ALL (or even most )content is objectionable . 2) the objectionable content is often of interest to the discussion, particularly here on a thread about how out of hand it is becoming Perhaps the change in discord didn’t occur because of embeds but rather because the state of politics has dramatically changed?
  4. I’m not sure what this means. You have a position that makes no sense to me and I’d like to understand your perspective.
  5. What if someone just posted the url to the tweet and pasted the text, as is often done here? Or if they screen cap and past the image, also done frequently? What has been accomplished?
  6. Really? It looks pretty boilerplate to me
  7. So in your preferred universe, how does this go down exactly? We talk about Twitter, but never share content from it even if germane to the conversation? Can we link to other websites? Can we quote todays newspaper or repeat what we heard on the radio? Does this site even exist, or do we just discuss current events at the local Wednesday night service over potluck dinner?
  8. Really liking the sports multi view on YTTV
  9. By reducing awareness? That’s a shitty plan.
  10. As best I can tell, it is in chronological order by the post date OR by the repost/comment date by someone you follow
  11. - Michael Scott
  12. Bah, I did the time zone differential backwards. Delete post, ban user
  13. Which is especially funny because the typical golf fan is the last person who would find this remotely entertaining
  14. Yeah, same. I’m not really following what he’s trying to accomplish here. Is there going to be some effort to restrict their posts? Or just exempt them from amplification? I guess we’ll all learn together when one of them points out specifically how this is impacting them
  15. Yet NoLabels is making serious progress in getting on ballots and will likely post a “compelling” ticket for those not excited about Biden. It’s a legit concern imo
  16. This is not good. It does, though, underscore why the fediverse will win out long term. Soon you’ll be able to take your account (and follows) to an alternate service on the fediverse where moderation and algorithms (if any) are more to your liking.
  17. Create an alt (but connected) IG account in IG, then use the alt for threads
  18. Anal porn or unboxing Pokémon cards? Ah, so anal porn, then
  19. Find someone with similar interests as you and click their followers count. Then click into their Following tab. Now you can quickly scan their list to add to your own
