Nice. I use Allsides.com. it's a nonprofit org with no incentive to be biased. Very short summaries by topic and even tells you how each topic is being covered by the propoganda media. It's the only us fed news source I have in my rss feed collection.

Oh neat! I didn't know this existed. By any chance, do you know of any RSS readers that have implemented it?

Totally understand! Social media and the constant flow of information in our feeds can be so detrimental to our mental health. If you do consider coming back, RSS feeds may be better for you. They allow you to control your sources, how frequently you see content, and you can even filter things easily. It's just like any normal feed on any website, but you can add different websites and sources to it and it just gives you way more control over your level of consumption online. Here's a good article about how RSS feeds help with our mental health if you're curious. Always put your health before all else, and wishing you all the best!

Nice! I was looking for something like this the other day. Also great that it's available on Flathub.

Who are these people downvoting these posts? 😆

Announcing my departure from ~~moderation~~?

since you're quitting Lemmy entirely? I'd ask why but I'm sure that's probably a little too personal. If it's related to the moderation of those subs, it may make sense to disclose that, though. 🫡

Mine are pretty sassy

This seems to interestingly prove the point made by the person this is in reply to. Breaking laws come with consequences. Not caring about a robots.txt file doesn't. But maybe it should.

Agree. Different platforms have different purposes and the experiences probably should remain separate.

I always find these perspectives that want such a high level of fed integration peculiar when this can already be done using RSS feeds. It's the whole reason they exist. To bring all of the updates from anywhere on the internet Mastodon updates, Pixelfed, Peertube, etc into one, single timeline view. The tools are already there for people to use if people want them.

The issue with node is the single threading and having to scale with worker threads AFAIK

People always say this but its not technically correct and can be misleading.

Technically, JavaScript runs single threaded but not Node.js itself and certainly not when using it on the backend in something like Express. IO operations and other things tooling libraries do can cause you to run out of a thread pool. But Node.js, when handling requests, gives you much of the benefit of multithreading without having to deal with multithreaded code.

It's going to be interesting to see the reaction of all of these people who are gladly giving away all of their private/personal data and online behaviors for free. Just makes it easier for these companies to censor, retaliate, or use it against them when they're ready.

It's unfortunate, but I doubt anything will be done about this. Guess we have to get used to seeing the same posts, and repeating ourselves in threads a lot.

I blame the rise of frameworks, libraries, and IDEs.

My thoughts exactly. Frameworks on top of frameworks with a lot of cruft that will incrementally make software slower and buggy.

That, coupled with the fact that business owners just want things shipped. Quality aside, I dont even think they care about products being good anymore 🥲
