This is why companies like Apple are at least a tiny bit correct when they go on about app security and limiting code execution. The fact it aligns with their creed of controlling all of the technology they sell makes the whole debate a mess, though. And it does not excuse shitty behavior on their part.

But damn

And if they got this past Apple in their platforms. That’s even wilder.

Personally, I have no interest in animated versions. The live action spectacle is important. IMO.

And don’t anyone get pedantic about what animation means.

Ohh, I get the title now. The Dinos run everything…

The pandemic.

“Managed Decline” That’ll be big.

I assume they are doing checks of other things. Local software is not the same as a web service that is checking your IP for your location.

They could use location services, your registration country for your Apple ID, the sale location of your device, and other things. They could even aggregate indicators and use that.

I guess I’m lucky I’ve never personally known anyone to preach about their diet.

For someone like myself, this all sounds overblown and just a meme/trope you see in movies and TV.

That really does sound like a bag of hurt.

But it also sounds like a fuller alternative to what the big guys offer. And in the long run it would make it a well rounded space and protocol.

It’s too bad that it sounds like it both isn’t straightforward to implement properly, and attracts heat.

I wish them luck. Privacy and security would be great. People do use these spaces as direct messaging platforms. Even if it’s not the best all around idea. As social spaces evolve, the way people message evolves too. Making it secure earlier in that cycle is good.

I think if that caught on then companies would call it undue burden to sift through all the dependencies they use to make such small payments.

It is a difficult problem. But on the face of it your suggestion seems very reasonable.

Irony poisoning?

I think a lot of the annoyance that comes from rules similar to your example is the fact it is a system bolted on to whatever is available in Reddit. And the UI/UX is almost always TERRIBLE.

If it was easier to make clean and functional post/comment flows this would be less of a burden.

Your points still stand. But I do think a large proportion of the friction from many rules comes from Reddits architecture. And frankly, the fact that they support apps. If it had stayed just the website, we would have probally seen more movement on improving these flows. But it’s deemed too complicated to support in two formats. Also, Reddit probally just does not give a shit.

I would hope Lemmy could be a place where it’s easy to deploy systems for proper labeling and tagging in niche communities that gain a lot from better taxonomies and other systems.

If communities end up with hundreds of thousands or millions of users, you will start to see more rules here too.

I’m not saying any specific rule choices are good or bad. But they become increasingly necessary when the user count crosses a threshold.

Why was there an anime purge?

Wait, you’re saying we shoulda kept some of the ozone hole around?

So you’re saying you were purposefully shown a set of images that featured mustaches and were told these are what predators look like?

That sounds similar to being taught to fear ethnicities or other ways people present themselves.

Seems like an oversimplification of the world done by narrow minded people who were very misguided.

I’ve always found jokes like that to be distasteful and weird.

Great effort.
