This is an absurd statement. Reddit is by far the most effectively gamed and manipulated social media platform that exists. There’s countless examples of how powerful mods are on Reddit on shaping narratives.

In my account they definitely failed. As you say, they did a great job with the hardware but the only real software they are even advertising for it is a worse version of vrchat that they took way too long to clone. I don’t know how to choc

Zuck moved first in “metaverse” with Oculus 7 years ago and what does he have to show for it? Some decent/good hardware locked behind logging into your Facebook account. If it had been any other company that had done with Oculus what F

Like the other reply to you mentioned, it is the one most commonly used in other countries to my knowledge. I first noticed it in an article from FT talking with Japanese investors. It was my first notice of it because I had always seen the

One thing about the rejection of IP that I don’t think they have taken far enough is IP theft. Sure some places have cleaned up their act relative to when China was able to steal so much IP but based on the places that have been victims of

I don’t follow anyone on Twitter I agree with on most issues. However I don’t think your concern here is unfounded but in my personal experience the bigger issue is on the surface non political or non biased organizations or “content creato

You really just need to follow one good Twitter account and they will usually retweet other people who are interesting and usually share a characteristic that led you to followed the original account.

Then it should apply in every industry. It is absurd to think that this is not inherent a sale of data and of data collection technologies. I would assume that in Facebook's acquisition these are two different things have been priced i

Yes, do you genuinely believe that they have sufficiently changed after the vast amount of data given away to Cambridge Analytica and other firms just two years ago mean they should have access to historical data? I genuinely think you shou

no their problem is that the DMCA system sucks as it wasn't even written this century (1998), so they created ContentID as a response. They do benefit from the way the system exists currently because of this since the cost of developin

I mean it in more the sense that Facebook only serves your content to a very small amount of people who like your page to test it before they send it to more and more people, and that if I was trying to resolve the issues the companies were

This seems like a bad idea in that it doesn't address the actual issue: most people just read headlines now. The question that leads from that is asking whether that is a result of the design of Facebook. Google is a different problem

How are you going to enforce antitrust upon something that costs 0 to consume and pays some people who post upon it? I think that ideally the legal problems that lead to stuff like content-id being necessary should be resolved so that you c

This same thing also happened with tetrisfriends.com. It sucks because they took all of the game modes that you could play for free and then are willing to sell them back to you in Tetris 99. Also I don't really follow any Tetris forum

1800 employees and yet not a single reason to own the product. Sad to look back and realize that the huge investment that got at least me excited was in retrospect probably just a hedge bet on AR blowing up.
