I just saw an article about Google adding pop-ups during navigation to Google Maps.

Because there are a lot of dishonest people who claim they’re only criticizing Hamas, when they are actually calling for violence against all Palestinians.
“Harbu Darbu” is a perfect example of that.
People here just downvote anything they don’t like even if it’s in its own community
Finally, a competitive YouTube alternative
Masterful gambit sir
I’m heavily interested in Bluesky, so I started [email protected]. However, Lemmy is overall pretty hostile towards Bluesky, and I’m not willing to go back to Reddit for active discussion about it.
Car-dependent suburban sprawl
My favorites:
I wouldn’t really compare Bluesky to Mastodon. Ultimately, the Bluesky team still has control over what’s allowed on the app and what’s allowed on the network until third parties launch their own AppViews and relays.
It is not well known but there have been numerous scandals which put this trust into question. For example in 2012, a trustee of the Wikimedia Foundation UK used his position to place his PR client on Wikipedia’s front page 17 times within a month. Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales made extensive edits to the article about himself, removing mentions of co-founder Larry Sanger. In 2007, a prolific editor who claimed to be a graduate professor and was recruited by Wikipedia staff to the Arbitration Committee was revealed to be a 24-year-old college dropout. These are only a few examples, journalist Helen Buyniski has collected much more information about the the rot in Wikipedia.
I don’t really understand how decentralization would address the trust and legitimacy problems of Wikipedia. I do see value in adding community wikis to Lemmy, however.
Tankies are the reason why Lemmy exists in the first place.
Lemmy is probably the best fedidiverse project so far and it’s not even close
Hashtags are on the roadmap, but have not been implemented yet.
Not everyone has moved on to Bluesky yet
Finally some good fucking news
Austria still does
I have social anxiety :(
I’m begging google to just bring back YouTube Premium Lite and expand it
