@thestrangelet Capitalism is inherently unethical. The way we build tech – any tech – within the mainstream model under capitalism has always been and will always be unethical. i.e., all Big Tech is unethical. “Ethics in Big Tech” is just a Venn diagram of useful idiots and public relations.

@aral @ajsadauskas @aj @latestagecapitalism this is true too, but it depends on who "fucked up" is defined for

Even if size does become a problem (SufferringFromSuccess.meme), we can always defederate a smaller Lemmy/Piefed network and call it Fedi Classic.

Have you considered https://givin.gifts? They see themselves as the unofficial successor of redditgifts (they even let you import redditgifts gallery posts back when they were still online). They opened their Happy Holidays 2026 signups a couple of days ago and any premium user could also create a custom fediverse Secret Santa exchange.

I took part in every givin.gifts Happy Holidays exchange since redditgifts shut down and I’m happy with it. If there are any problems with your gifter, their team is really invested in smoothing things out and getting you a rematch if needed.

@LeNouvelEssai Faire le taf à ta place c'est pas t'aider, tu choisis de poster des images, c'est à toi de faire des textes alternatifs, je vais pas passer mon temps à te courir après et faire le larbin. Tu dis être antivalisite, c'est très bien, mais ça peut pas juste être des paroles en l'air.

Pour faire un texte alternatif, imagine que tu décris l'image à quelqu'un au téléphone, ça devrait t'aider à en extraire ce qui est pertinent.

Sounds like what I've been dreaming of for a while. Curious to see how things work out.

Le Québec peut et doit créer de la richesse, tout en contribuant à réduire les GES.

Nous avons une réserve de gaz naturel non-exploitée qui nous permettrait d’enrichir les Québécois et de réduire les GES à l’échelle planétaire.

Monsieur @paulplamondon,

Saviez-vous que celle que vous nommez à la tête de votre Sommet sur l’itinérance, Geneviève Masse, a dévoilé le nom d’un lanceur d’alerte, en violation de la Loi?

Que la Protectrice du citoyen avait conclu à un «manquement majeur»?

@highvoltage Horse Power-Hour sounds like an event at a local pub, involving tequila and farm animals.

reddit got bad because spez (the reddit admin) restricted API access to the platform for third-party apps, such that people would be forced to use the official app or web UI, both of which display advertisement and collect user data (e.g. scroll behavior).

the reason why this happened is because reddit is a for-profit company and tries to extract money out of the userbase, at the expense of the users.

another example of a bad decision that reddit made was to push a lot of ragebait (“Am I The Asshole?”) because company shareholders want to see “engagement numbers” go up, and if somebody writes an angry reply to a post, that’s “engagement”. but it makes you angry at the stupidity of the “Asshole”, so it makes your day worse. that is another example how reddit makes money at the expense of the users.

size (number of monthly active users) is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.

we should probably get rid of the “don’t make lemmy grow, it will ruin the platform if we grow” idea.

Unser #Oktober|tipp knüpft unmittelbar an den #September|tipp an. Wir stellen Euch diesmal also die #Möglichkeit der #steuer- und #sozial|abgabenfreien Erho-lungsbeihilfe vor.

Aufgrund der umfangreichen Voraussetzungen für Betriebe mit mindestens 5 #Mitarbeiter|n, ist dieser Tipp vor allem für kleinere #Unternehmen interessant.

Als #Arbeitgeber könnt Ihr die soziale Bindung zu Euren Mitarbeitern stärken und dabei gemeinsam mit diesen noch #Steuern und Sozialabgaben sparen. Aber auch darüber hinaus ist es eine Win-Win-Situation.

Schnellere Erholung, weniger #Stress und eine bessere #Arbeit|satmosphäre sind sowohl für Euch als auch für Eure Mitarbeiter ein echter Mehrwert!

Ihr habt Fragen zu unserem Beitrag oder einen Vorschlag, zu welchem Thema wir gegebenenfalls als nächstes einen Beitrag erstellen könnten? Dann gebt gern Be-scheid. Wir freuen uns auf Eure Rückmeldung.

@alex nope, that didn't show up in my mastodon notifications.

Also it doesn't show up in the replies collection for that post, which is the problem I was complaining about.

There have been two main points of focus for the project over the last month. The text editor, and something of a finalisation of the hardware for two models of permacomputer.
