  • Elon Musk’s X blocks links to Signal, the encrypted messaging service

  • They do have other ways such as SMS if it is critical, but most people simply share the twitter link via WhatsApp and you can be more updated by using twitter. Most people haven't moved to Bluesky or Mastodon, so if there is flooding or heavy rain most people will share updates on their location via twitter and WhatsApp like for example flooded streets.

  • I don't think it is a good idea to block twitter completely. Some countries use twitter for official announcements, including emergency warning.

  • From my experience they almsot never reply, it is better to make a new account using vpn rather than trying to get unbanned.

  • A good example is the Usenet community, in Lemmy there is barely any activity, on reddit people post at least once a week.

  • I had multiple accounts suddenly they all got system error, which in Reddit means you are banned. They couldn't be bothered to implement a notification system to inform the users they were banned.

  • In Patreon, the users are selling their content, in this case Reddit is paywalling user content without paying the users.

  • Or just move to a a console, the quality might not be the same, but it is way cheaper. This is one of the reasons people by consoles, they are cheaper and the games are optimized for it.

  • Elijah McClain:

    Randy Roedema, an Aurora police officer at the time, was sentenced to 14 months in a county jail. Jeremy Cooper, the paramedic working with Mr. Cichuniec, was sentenced to four years of probation with 14 months of work-release.

    Strangely courts care more about dogs than humans, let us not forget about war crimes committed by soldiers and they don't get any punishment example My Lai massacre.

  • It is different, but close enough that I won't be surprised this is real.

  • You are wrong. Usenet uses Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP)  and newsgroups are Basically just forums with different topics.

    Usenet is basically the first ever worldwide forum or discussion system and it only accepts text, it doesn't accept binary. Files are posted by encoding files as text and posting them, but since there is a size limit for each post similar to twitter, the files have to be split.

    Your ISP can see that you are connecting to a Usenet provider and if you don't use SSL they will see what you are downloading, but it doesn't matter since in most countries only sharing is illegal, downloading is not illegal.
