WhatsApp is more secure by design, but one suspects that Meta is up to something. But I suppose to whatever extent it's possible to trust Meta, they are nonetheless likely a better guarantor of your security than Telegram is

Not to say anything good about Trump, but economists shouldn't be stunned since a lot of economics is already random ass shit like this

Having read some (but not all) the comments, I do agree with the idea that decentralization (federation) somehow is what helps to alleviate this problem, although it's such a complex matter that you will have to see how it plays out. For my part, with some exceptions I was more or less satisfied with how Reddit used to be, and part of that was because Reddit was centralized. Reddit not being federated or decentralized is to its benefit because social platforms benefit from having everything all in one place, but what really seems to have done Reddit in was commercialization. It went from being similar to some kind of basic software tool to this corporate nightmare of tracking and ads, algorithmically shaping content, etc. It's like Facebook now but with a red icon. Lemmy wasn't designed to do that, and it will never do that. Federation does help with that.

In all countries the general population doesn't understand anything. Certainly Americans don't understand. If you've been to some countries that have already experienced the problems you mentioned, they might look more familiar to you, but I think Americans may be experiencing them for the first time.

He uses some famous examples of American leftist intellectuals (to some extent) siding with Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Unfortunately, it is a thing.

It was such an iconic machine. Ironically, at the time I hated them. (I probably still wouldn't want to use one even now, but now I only have to look at pictures of them, and they admittedly are nice to look at.)

I had a friend in high school whose family had one of these in their living room, and it was running OS 9. It was practically useless, but I forget what he did on it. I seem to remember that it ran World of Warcraft, but now I'm questioning my memory if that was really possible or not.

I’m sick and tired of reading this sentence…

Me too, but when I think about it, I realize its necessity

It's just a warning label not a prohibition
