Non-fediverse social media is designed to be addictive because that's how the people running it make money.
What do you mean non-fediverse? How does Federation affect addictiveness?

I keep getting arguments from peoplee about this, even on Bluesky.
Apparently it's too much to expect people to inconvenience themselves and not follow their favorite musicians or whatever.
If the vast majority of people can't be assed to take the absolutely easiest step possible to fight (or avoid supporting) fascists/Nazis, then we really are fucked.
Same thing with how people could very, very easily choose just NOT to buy another Nazicar. Yet 90% if Americans still bought one last month as a year earlier. It's just about the smallest sacrifice I can think of - just buying a DIFFERENT car that you might not like quite as much.
And I think the fact that we are where we are right now also confirms the problem.
Yea I really don't understand this, like move it's 2 seconds to join bluesky...like damn

Algorithmically curated timelines are designed to be addictive. Fediverse doesn't have that, it's time based, like it used to be before.

Hitler Bot 5000 became sentient on July 9 2025 and started putting people over a barrel and gaping them at 2:35PM PST.

Holy shit.
It is a Mechanical Turk. Although I guess it's a Mechanical Greek now.

Never go full Hitler
Huh? Richest dude on the planet did and nothing bad has happened to him. Sadly, it appears to be 100% ok to go full Hitler anymore.
If only these people would go FULL Hitler and finish themselves off (sooner rather than later).

Taking the position himself would rob him of a layer of insulation from public opinion. He'll find himself another rubber stamp, if he can find someone who's sufficiently stupid, greedy, and/or desperate to take the job (and there always is someone). We should start a betting pool on how long that person is going to last before taking the fall for Musk.
Why would he care? Who is going to do anything to him? Dude did Nazi salutes on stage, ain't shit happen but offense.
Could he just perhaps pull a reverse card and go un-crazy? Do something useful instead of just making everything worse?

I can't believe people still use Twitter.
Most of the content here is from twitter, so yeah...
We may not be using twitter but we are discussing content from twitter.
Its a bit depressing actually. There isnt other websites where things happen that would be more interesting to actually talk about...

"So it never worked?"
"No."
"And been a team of people in Wokeistan this whole time?"
"Angola, but yes."
"And it's been saying this woke crap becuase you've been paying them to? ... Why?"
"Because you're a jackass Elon. And nobody likes you."

He's going off the rails with drugs. Maybe they should delete his job.

Oh ok, sorry. I wasn't aware that the fediverse restricted algorithms

I’m immensely grateful to him for entrusting me with the responsibility of protecting free speech, turning the company around, and transforming X into the Everything App.
Translation: I’m so thankful that I’ve had the opportunity to devote 2 years of my life to a company that was able to build a product that could appropriately express its true love for Adolf Hitler.

Twitter has been a nazi shithole since day 1 of the Musk era. At least now people cant say they didn't know anymore. If you stick there your either a nazi-bitch, or a nazi's bitch.

I'm surprised he didn't have a baby with her.
….that we know of. Could have used a surrogate.

It CAN be time based, but there's also a "hot" and an "active" sorting. Both of which are "algorithms".
It's a lot more simple of an algorithm, and doesn't intentionally push specific topics, but if you open https://lemmy.world/ anonymously, you'll see a default "All/Active" feed which is sorted by engagement.

If you hang out at a Nazi bar, you're a Nazi.

Perhaps it's because I'm old, but I kinda hit a wall a few years back where I stopped giving a shit about what famous people had to say on the internet. So on that basis, the move from Twitter to Mastodon was easy for me. Less easy was leaving behind people who I liked, but life is change, and we leave people behind all the time.

We can all go entire books at this point with the things we can't believe...
This timeline is fucking insane, and twice as depressing as anything I thought I'd ever live through.
