I usually can do stereograms pretty well but for some reason I had to tilt my phone about 10° counter-clockwise for the stereo images to align to get the 3D effect.

They also took meticulous notes regardless (they’re German after all), which helped the Nuremberg prosecutors.

- Comment on Threads is nearing X's daily app users, new data shows 1 week ago:
Threads is weird, maybe because I’m not used to the Twitter-like format. Posting is fast like Lemmy (not surprising since it shares the Fediverse infrastructure). Replies are harder to read since it’s one level nested. There’s no downvotes.
Anyone can choose to tag any post or comment as any topic, like Twitter but hashtags don’t appear to be needed. Images and gifs are well supported by default, but it doesn’t support alt-text for accessibility.
The default feed is heavily bot-laden worth thirst-traps and AI women. You need to find actual people and follow them for recommendations for other real people to start to show up in the default feed which is a bit annoying. You end up with a social circle like in Facebook but they are complete strangers unless you accept recommendations from any Instagram contacts you know in real life. You need to turn off linking between Threads and Instagram (on both applications) if you want to keep them separate, it’s opt-out.
Political discussions are toxic; this is unsurprising. Lots of MAGA trash, but not Nazi-laden like X (formerly Twitter). Arguments with them are unfruitful.
The meme game is incredibly weak compared to here (thanks PugJesus, The_Picard_Maneuver, cm0001, etc.). Lemmy has an incredible amount of fantastic memes for it’s size.
There are of course ads but they aren’t as obnoxious as Facebook ads. No doubt Meta is data mining the hell out of your content.
Since there’s millions of people (if they aren’t conflating with Instagram users) it’s incredibly active. That part is nice but you also get the stupidity and ignorance from Facebook-like users; this is where curating your follows is important.

- Comment on Nexus Mods are set to introduce adult mod age verification for UK and EU users soon 2 weeks ago:
Time for Nexus Mods to move just a little bit from their home in the UK to the independent principality of Sealand so they don’t have to deal with all of this.
Also, I didn’t understand why these laws don’t use a token verification system where the website just connects to a government server that verifies the identity and gives a submit simple yes/no instead of having to store Personally Identifiable Information (PII) themselves.
