to be fair, all cloud services scan. It’s unfortunately necessary to detect CSAM to stop people from spreading it.

sounds like to much work. I just use the privacy-oriented photo backup solution ente. (And, because I’m an android user – plus having multiple backups – I also use Google Photos)

considering Elon is killing twitter, I don’t think that’s a viable option. Every assemble…to Mastodon and our savior of decentralized social media!

Examine TikTok’s U.S. facilities, records, equipment and servers with minimal or no notice,

not related. But this kind of reminds me of https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2257 specifically:

© Any person to whom subsection (a) applies shall maintain the records required by this section at his business premises, or at such other place as the Attorney General may by regulation prescribe and shall make such records available to the Attorney General for inspection at all reasonable times.

So, at least it’s nothing new. there’s precedence for it in existing law.

sadly no

there are no concerns about potentially being sued. Section 230 literally exists. Section 230 says that lemmy.world is not liable for what users post. It is the users themselves that are liable. As it should be. If Section 230 didn’t exist, nobody would be able to post anyone because the hosts would be too scared about getting sued. (ironic)

Except they don’t have to deal with “legal shit”. Section 230 literally protects them and makes it so that they are NOT liable for what users post (it’s the users that post it that are liable – as it should be, tbh)

This is just some bullshit censorship. I would totally run my own personal lemmy instance, but I’ve heard that it’s not easy to run in docker. Hopefully over time it’ll improve!

Tweetdeck has been dying a slow death since they killed the Android app back in 2013 (RIP. Still miss you buddy!)

too real

I definitely grabbed the json

My instance is pixelfed.social. no matter what browser i use (librewolf/firefox, brave, edge on desktop. Brave/firefox on Mobile) importing simply doesn’t work. It lets me select the file and nothing further post that point 🤷‍♀️

I’d recommend GrapheneOS just because it’s much more private and secure (and everyone should care about privacy and the security of their shit)

Basically. Mastodon is a Twitter alternative. Pixelfed is an instagram alternative.

Now, if only the import from instagram would work🙄

It’ll probably never happen because the unemployment rate for autistic people is 85%. But in an ideal world, I’d love to build my own (if there’s any sugar mommies/daddies out there that feel like spoiling someone 🤔):

Just for funsies I just built it in pcpartpicker https://pcpartpicker.com/user/JoshuaACasey/saved/cqjnpg

edit: motherboard seems out-of-stock, so if this ever becomes a reality, might have to make some adjustments for a different micro itx motherboard (plus compatible cpu of course. no biggie, thanks to the existence of pcpartpicker, compatibility is a breeze!)

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY. I’m so glad to see someone else say this.

I just hate the way that Elongated Muskrat makes us autistic people look terrible.

I feel like I’m the only one that doesn’t mind people joining threads. It gets more people to join the fediverse (a good thing), which not only introduces more people to the fediverse (potentially with them moving to other instances) but also potentially gets more people to set up their own personal instances for themselves OR a group of family/friends

and there we have. a reddit meme has transcended reddit onto a higher plane of existence.

ok. who are these girls? I’ve seen this pic before. But I have no idea who they are (funnily enough the girl on the left kinda looks like the oldest daughter of my neighbors behind me that is a couple years younger than me. But I’m quite positive it’s not her.)
