I wanted to fact check this, but I guess Meta doesn’t have a tool for that, anymore. I’ll have to accept it at face value.

I’ve added a note that this is true.

With all the bots I’ve seen in recent months, I thought surely they already did.

Why have the company do it when we can make the people do it for us!

There’s no way this can cause the Earth to be catapulted into the Sun.

This might actually end up being a good thing. If users can fact-check stuff instead of relying kn Meta to do it for us. It seems bad, but there are a lot of people willing to correct their misinformation.
On the flipside, why are people still using facebook.

This being useful assumes meta won’t be removing community notes they don’t like.

Isnt this better than meta being entirely responsible for fact checking?

I run a free board game group on there called West Allis Board Games. Believe me, I would like to leave Meta and I offer everyone gamenight.host/@wa_bgn as a nonprofit alternative, but no one is on the latter and everyone is on the former. If you have any ideas on what I can do, I’m all
earseyes.I asked the attendees about how they’d feel if we moved to a different platform and they immediately said they don’t want to handle dozens of accounts scattered across different platforms. I also advertise the group on related subreddits and, most recently, the locally relevant /c/ equivalents here.

Is there any analysis of the efficacy of Community Notes on Xitter?
NocturnalMorning@lemmy.world 2 months ago
No idea, i guess it all depends on the faith of the company not removing community notes.

The community notes appear many hours after the original has been posted, meaning that majority of interactions will be before any notes will be attached. And even the process of choosing the community notes is not transparent, so you can never be sure that the note does its job even after it’d added.

Same reason people are still using Instagram and Xitter. Social Graph.

Because most of the world are Normies that will use whatever comes pre-installed on their phone, or go onto whatever thing their friends are on already?
