No man. That is a brilliant feature that has caught out many “anti-gay” politician’s.
Comment on What if we added a social component like "Stories" to this calculator app?

If you ever feel useless just remember somebody designed and implemented the share-to-facebook feature on porn sites.

Wanted to prove people used those buttons, but maybe not (need to use better/unblocked terms I suppose):
Low Stakes Conspiracies: that share button is there to get users banned. Activist admins or funded by Musk himself?
(Yeah, they pulled a permanent Twitter Taylor Swift on Pornhub.)

I didn’t believe you but can confirm this blank search within the Facebook app. Instagram, by the same parent company, has lots of results though. Guess all the puritanical boomers are on Facebook not Insta

I wouldn’t be surprised if there was some sort of “shadow ban” style component to this. I think Tumblr does something like that where postsand tags that are marked as sexually explicit can’t be found by searching for them, but if you’re following the person, you can see them.

If you’re ever depressed about building useless software just remember - leveraged buyouts are a thing. You could buy your company for nothing by just putting massive debt in the company account and actually manage it right.
Well, in theory, in actuality this piece of accounting bullshit is reserved for vulture capitalists that will destroy the value of the company and asshats (see: Elon Musk) that will destroy the value of the company.
Capitalism destroys everything that we build!

At the same time capitalism has built almost everything we have.

That’s a pretty hot take saying that on the internet considering the Internet got its start as a government program. Hell, a lot of the fiber in the US was done through corporate welfare programs. A lot of rural places wouldn’t even have Internet if it weren’t for our taxes going to the common good (like socialism!). Let’s not forget all the things that came out of NASA and government funded universities.
He’ll, I like a bit of capitalism. A well regulated market that promotes competition can be fantastic. But to say almost everything came from capitalism is either ignorant, willfully stupid, or so full of propaganda that you can’t possibly be a functional adult.
sunbeam60@lemmy.one 9 months ago
Yeah it’s obviously as much of a hot take as it is to say “capitalism destroys everything”, which is what I was responding to.
I’ve grown up in a well regulated market economy, probably one of those countries the American right wing would call communist because, hey, you get a free education and health care, so I’ll be the first to acknowledge the role of the state.
The problem with most of online is that it’s seen through American lenses. When most people say communism they mean free healthcare and when most people say capitalism, they mean robber-baron free-wheeling markets without unions where cash is king and lobbyist are seen as a healthy part of government.
I’d like to be someplace in the middle please.
But bear in mind I was reacting to someone saying “capitalism destroys everything” and I mean, for Darwin’s sake, look around you. Almost everything I can see and touch has been delivered in a capitalism society (one that for me has always, and should always, be well regulated).
I’m 46, married for 16 years, 4 kids and held a steady job since 18. I’ll leave it with you decide if that’s a functioning adult or not. But thanks for getting personal, that really elevated the debate.

Free Software is literally communist.
sunbeam60@lemmy.one 9 months ago
Yes and I’m all for it.
It doesn’t change the core of my argument.

I will admit I was being rather hyperbolic - capitalism isn’t all evil… but our current brand of capitalism is evil as fuck.
sunbeam60@lemmy.one 9 months ago
Who’s “our”. If you mean the American brand of capitalism, oh yes, that’s not a society I would prefer to live in.

That isn’t there so people use it. That is there so that Facebook can track where you go

Course they only need a 1px by 1px image for that right?
Shoutout Facebook Container for Firefox, or Firefox if you’re still using a browser that’s killing the open web 😉

You don’t need to use that extension anymore, Total Cookie Protection already does the job and is enabled by default on Firefox and Firefox Mobile. Could be useful if you use more than one account, tho.
JustUseMint@lemmy.world 9 months ago
You get the added bonus of a reduced unique fingerprint because one less extension

Ah neat!
Neither FB Container & First Party Isolation no longer relevant for the average user then. Forward!
