yo that’s the joke i was making XD

sounds like your pitiful mind cant understand the unix file oriented philosophy and you should stay 10 feet away from all information technology /sarcasm

i think there’s lots of different flavors of android or something, such that different phones handle the user-facing file system totally differently. it might also be that nicer phones the devs put more effort into making UX have a more forgiving learning curve but because android isn’t truly open source those developments are inaccessible to other users

It’s almost as if this is a computer architecture designed for idiots human beings who don’t know or care what a file is interact with computers on a non-file oriented basis or have been lied to and systemically unsupported in their education for what purposes their data is being harvested.

No hate. No useful conversation starts with calling large swaths of people idiots, is all.

i wrote a whole comment but deleted it this comment explains better https://programming.dev/comment/17202550

is it bait if i posted it because i thought it was funny

but the title said explicitly the opposite!

sorry consider the bait spread i personally have the opinion that bait inoculation is possible

good way to put it

What’s our over/under for how long until the executive order that conveniently pushes the boundaries of what “illegal” is.

those users were banned long long ago

Asking the eugenics advocate nazi to use nicer words about disabled people is kind of pointless considering he’d probably kill them if he could.

This should be a condemnation letter, it rubs me the wrong way that this is titled as such a defanged “please stop.”

While I appreciate the cynicism around that truly absurd cliche “protecting their country,” there’s no credible evidence or even accusations linking either of these two individuals to war crimes, real or alleged.

I hope your next suggestion is as great as this one is terrible :)

Yeah this is also where I am more or less coming from. I think it’s good for it to be said in a meta post where the discussion is built for it.

This is an excellent point, added to the cons list in the body text

That’s kind of been my position too. Like I guess “people were posting low quality content” but if it’s no evidence of malice/rule breaking, what’s stopping people from just curating their feed and blocking users they see too much?

Still fifty-fifty on this for the record but I am glad there is more wholesome and constructive discussion on this still coming in :)

Valuable analysis ty

That’s an excellent point. Like, if we are going to have high-volume power users (which is an inevitability) it’s honestly arguably good and transparent for them to use single accounts that individual users can block—like at least they are known power users and it’s not being obfuscated.

I’m personally still fifty-fifty on the rule but this did sway me a bit.

Thanks for your input! It is valuable.

Re: your last paragraph. I’m literally just a third party user who was not involved in any of the conflict in any way, suggesting one potential resolution that at this point I still think could go either way.

It’s fair to assume that I was talking about myself but rest assured I have no personal investment here and my only commitment is to what is best for the community. :)
