fuck

omg it’s already so much better! ur da best 😎

that’s also so true

Agree to all, but just to add clarity, there is existing Mandarin LGBT content that was posted prior to the US influx. If there is moderation of queer voices going on, it’s a a similar level to what we are already familiar with from Meta and TikTok, not significantly more.

it’s joever for us the CCP has our throats

correct, and i do think that is history that led to the eventual degradation of the threadiverse term. but the original meaning as i showed above was intended to label fediverse platforms in contrast to mastodon and other microblogs.

I sacrificed my soul to go over and check it out, immediately followed a bunch of LGBT creators of both US and Chinese locale. Nothing I followed or liked seems to have been removed yet, so just giving my two honest cents on that. The stuff that gets removed appears to be mainly Chinese politics and that’s it.

Is it the perfect protest solution? Naw.

Is it better than Musk and Zuckerberg getting a shit ton of free revenue from their corruption? Yea.

Is it funny as fuck? YUPP LMAO

Even when there is polling people tend to ignore it so, yeah. Good on these guys for doing the measurements that prove what we can already guess.

it is spyware! just like tiktok and instagram :3

i take issue not with that but with the random assertions that feeds are being kept separate :) here’s US and Chinese fans having fun in a post about American artist Chappel Roan!

Blocking you as well, thanks for letting me know you just like to argue.

i agree (and this comment here)

me, here take your own hehe

Yeah it goes both ways. Chinese users are seeing US users and US users are seeing Chinese users. I have facts on my side bud. I just call people out who make shit up. Blocked. <3

It’s insane how much we have grown! I think I literally have memories of being there, seeing your very post two years ago and thinking “yo it’s the gal from the shark instance!”

And that post only has 32 upvotes to date. :0 I’ve now switched to an instance that doesn’t even interoperate with .ml anymore and time keeps flying. XD

I want to give a shoutout to @[email protected] who invented the term here:

So, my lame contribution …

Threadiverse!: “Social media, but woven into threads, like Reddit or Forums, not like the chaos of Twitter, but all on the Fediverse so you can find anyone else doing anything else too.”

Sorry your cool name got immediately swamped by the Zucc 😅

Imagine being so unaware that you think memes are all there is. Recipes, cooking, fashion, sciences, education, music and everything else in high quality high effort are also over there. So you’re just wrong lol.

i see this a lot but this is a misconception. “threadiverse” originally was a term to describe the “threaded fediverse” i.e. Reddit-like platforms like Lemmy and kbin. Bluesky and Threads are not threadiverse because they operate on the microblog model not the threaded link aggregation model. this usage has nothing to do with the then non-fediverse related Meta project “Threads” and can be seen predating it.

LOL XD Jokes aside it’s interesting how the dark mode thing becomes more of a symbol than anything in certain communities. Obviously the science shows pros and cons both ways, but there’s an implicit in group/out group about it. I might compare it to turning off your autocaps on Tumblr.

it’s available on Apple’s Store and Google Play at least in my region. So it’s subject to the same restrictions and oversight every other app available through those platforms is, at least.

Go make an account then dude and see how many local Chinese feeds you will see. If it’s anything like my experience, it’s a lot. As of now you have provided zero evidence and are just assumption-mongering. ;)

Cool thanks for asserting something far fetched with your evidence being “I saw a Lemmy post about it.” Top par comment right there. :P

Enjoy the rest of your day
