There are more scenarios in which humanity will run itself in to the ground, we could survive for another while but I’m definitely not certain.
- Comment on Elon Musk's X pushed a fake headline about Iran attacking Israel. X's AI chatbot Grok made it up. 3 weeks ago:
I’m wondering the same thing. Is this coincidence?
- Comment on YouTube now suggests new content *by colour* 2 months ago:
I like algorithms giving me suggestions in all sorts of ways, but not shady ones. None of the people around me seem to mind, but I worry about a company like Google strongly influencing what information we consume.

Not that I’m aware of but I never looked into this.

Never a bad time to plug ListenBrainz. ListenBrainz logs what you listen so you can keep track of what you hear and it helps you get recommendations and insights into your listening habits. It’s not specifically for music pirates but it is compatible with music piracy. You can submit listens from all kinds of sources, youtube, spotify, but also local files (pirated or not). ListenBrainz is FOSS publishes all their data on a open license.
- Comment on ‘Front page of the internet’: how social media’s biggest user protest rocked Reddit 4 months ago:
Completely quit Reddit. It’s a shame that the article fails to mention the fediverse as a new rising alternative in response to enshittification.

Super Agent - Automatic Cookie consent. Despite the name it can be used for auto-rejecting cookies
- Comment on ListenBrainz passes 25k users! 4 months ago:
Ah yes you’re right, I forgot about that because I’ve never used either of those option. But it’s actually quite inconsistent that on MB you get the 5 start rating scale and on ListenBrainz you only get like/hate. Your suggestion to link them definitely makes sense to me.

Not sure what you mean. I don’t think there is a like function in MusicBrainz, is there? You can ‘love’ or ‘hate’ tracks in ListenBrainz

Are you aware of eavesdrop.fm?
- Comment on ListenBrainz passes 25k users! 4 months ago:
I have no experience with it myself, but from this overview I see there is this service called eavesdrop.fm
- Comment on ListenBrainz passes 25k users! 4 months ago:
No, all data in ListenBrainz is available for everyone.

I used to like last.fm. But i felt like it was only becoming worse over the years. For instance, I used to like groups and was quite active in some. Then suddenly they were removed. With ListenBrainz I feel like there is much to improve still, and perhaps it’s not on the level of Last.fm on some aspects. But ListenBrainz is getting better by the year and will only improve as more people join the project.

I couldn’t really tell you. The ListenBrainz android app was first released in February. I imagine it has improved over the year. I can’t tell you because I don’t use the app. I personally have my Tauon Music Box audioplayer on PC linked up with Listenbrainz, and I don’t listen to music on android. But on the forums I don’t hear a lot of complaints so I would assume it’s reasonably good.

It allows for data analysis. This helps you to discover new music, keep track of new releases coming out. It also allows you to easily share your musical interests with others. And it doesn’t have blind spots. Spotify would never recommend you something that’s not on Spotify. Because people submit listens to ListenBrainz from Spotify but also from other platforms and from local files there are no inherent blind spots. My listening behavior is no secret, anyone can have a look at it, I choose for it to not be private. But I wouldn’t want to just gift it to any one particular ompany that can use it to make money. By submitting listens to ListenBrainz you basically gift it to everyone.

Don’t let yourself be fooled. Lemmy is doing great. It’s got a lot more user than half a year ago and it will continue to grow. You should look at the bigger perspective here. People are starting to understand the point of the Fediverse more and more and it will eventually take over enshitified platforms such as Reddit

Can you explain to me what happened a couple months ago why people can’t post pictures? And what should one do to enable it?
- Comment on Chrome not proceeding with Web Integrity API deemed by many to be DRM 6 months ago:
more targeted ads means more spying. That’s bad news in theory and in practice.
