IBM, a major advertiser on X, has pulled its spending from the social media platform, whose employees are grappling with what to tell its other advertisers, according to internal messages.

This is the opinion of !technology@lemmy.ml, but the !technology@lemmy.world mods have chosen to not take a stance against it time and time again. It goes to reason that they think it's fine in this community for now.

Typical .world W and .ml L

Actually, I find it rather humorous that .world lets the users dictate what's discussed, while .ml dictates what the users can discuss. It runs counter to the ideologies that .ml is associated with, yet it fits perfectly with most implementations of that ideology. Life imitates art indeed.

Yeah, except .world's fucking weird when it comes to piracy and keep actively trying to horde the userbase for some reason?
