This spiral of violence must be stopped!

They don’t have to pay for hosting and it’s Google and not them that has to worry about people freeloading by disabling ads.

„They wouldn’t dare to do this” is not a very comforting reassurance with how things are going currently. I thought military industrial complex would prevent it but milk is already spilled.

That was a long meal. Nice that he’s calling out media on being complicit in creating current crisis. Getting reliable news is beyond reach for most people because clickbait and agenda attack you from every angle.

Yoghurt that they make out of this poor Balkan man is very tasty when combined with garlic.

I was head mod of a national sub for 2 years so I’ll offer their perspective.

Big subreddits are constantly attacked by clever ways to self promote. Your trust was broken so many times you were forced into cynicism. Your rules need to be simple and treat everyone equally. You don’t want to make too many judgment calls because they’re always controversial. You don’t want to spend that much time moderating because you’re not getting paid. You don’t have a way to increase your headcount because people who can mod are a precious resource. You have to maintain cohesion within moderation team because you’ll end up squabbling rather than gardening.

But there are also mods that are just scared of losing power.

Streamers can host it themselves. From what I hear around Lemmy hosting and streaming video is so cheap it can be done without money from ads ;)

US can stop approving HIMARs strikes, stop approving Patriot missiles from going up and prevent Starlink from connecting. And that’s without addressing this dubious claim in how much was delivered. Better face a reality than spread copium like this.
