I’m not bothering to dig it back up, but I thought I remember something like it was based on a policy when a verified user changes their logo. The verification was put back once reverified. Stupid, yes, but if policy it makes more sense.

I’m not big on defending Xitter, but IF this is uniformly handled, this is the least of our reasons to get torches and pitchforks after them.

To stay away from the influence of google’s business practices and their influence on chromium.

If that’s the case foxnews would like cut out most of the challenge. I’m not old enough to have adult children yet but I still have a hard time grasping news channels are entertainment venues.

News used to be actual news done by reporters. It had credibility and a degree of respect. This shift has been near impossible for my parents generation

I wonder if this is part of the reason Chevy dropped Android Auto and Carplay. Can’t lose out on data collection.

This must be very regional. Additionally, I’d bet a lot of this might depend on industry.

Someone who’s hourly might have fluctuations in their hours over a set period of time, like a month, or even week to week.

Seems like a number should always be coupled with a unit.

I didn’t click the link, it felt scammy. Did I pass?

Let’s be sure to do what we can about this…nothing.

The whole thing is sick. We’ve strayed so far. The theme of cruelty, corruption, and disregard for the human species shall continue till we destroy ourselves.

Pick a deity, any deity…would they be proud of us?

*Most religions to my knowledge have some form of kindness embedded.

And for those more secular, how do we stand back and nod, thinking we’ve done any good?

This seems to be going as planned. But why?

So you can’t edit on mobile… take 2

Aspix had the winning comment on this article.
Below:

They’re trying to distract from the fact that an admin account (/u/ModCodeofConduct) screwed up royally by forcibly changing subreddits that had gone NSFW as a protest back to SFW without their knowledge, exposing advertisers and children to any adult content that had been posted there in the interim. This move also opens the site up to significant legal liability – up until now, admins just enforce sitewide rules and leave specific moderation decisions to subreddit mods. By purging mods for their actions (which were fully justified under the content policy) and making direct editorial decisions about what subreddits can and can’t be about, they’re taking responsibility for what subreddits allow and potentially losing their Section 230 liability shield. The administrators are in panic mode and making rash decisions to quash the protest that could potentially destroy the company, even apart from the damage they’re already doing to community morale.

It seems like we’ve all lost the plot. We’d probably be willing to view ads if the experience wasn’t literally jarring. Try browsing for a day on a plain-no-extension browser. If you use other web enhancement tools kill those too. Straight-up internet is cancer, especially on mobile.

It’s impossible to read a 250-word article without being interrupted 5-7 times. Two of those interruptions are likely a full page overlay with give me your email, and are you sure you don’t want to subscribe, just give me your credit card number.

Then there are auto-play videos on the side, some with audio on by default. I mean I came here to read something, so of course we have things flashing and moving and making noise, it’s the most conducive environment for thought, right?

Ad blockers and script blocking are essentially a hazmat suit that allows us to withstand a hostile environment. Remember when we said myspace pages with audio and [marching-ants] borders was a bad UX? At least we didn’t have overlays back then.

Go back to basics and consider what makes a good vs bad internet experience. The reality sounds like someone with a minor case of severe brain damage. I think we’ve just become unashamed of greed as a society. It’s clearly all just about money.

Those annoying customers/users generate content and we have to put up with them so we can monetize it. *Sadly, It’s unclear if I’m talking about youtube, reddit, or nearly any other site.

Le sigh.
