    I've already seen a video ad on a social commerce platform - Facebook - twice now. It shows a person who is disappointed because Temu had promised to give away an expensive item for installing the app, but it didn't happen. The response: you shouldn't install it from the app store but from our link. And then it lists all the benefits of the gift.

    Of course, I won't click on it, but it sounds an awful lot like malware.

    In the past, I've seen fake AI-generated videos of various Italian politicians (as well as our Prime Minister) on that same platform, in which they suggested investing in XYZ (undoubtedly a scam). I filed various reports, but the responses were always that the videos were legitimate according to their policies.
    The situation is really getting out of control

      I hate websites that only have dark mode if you sign in.

      I hate websites that only have dark mode if you sign in. Sometimes they even default to the system theme when you’re logged in, but force light mode when logged out. What the fuck? What? Why? Just don’t. Ever. If you have a functioning theming system that you enable by default for logged in users, enable it by default for everyone and auto-sync the theme (unless maybe you have a very specific colour scheme important to your content—but you still should have the themes for #accessibility) #webdev

      Hello, fellow denizens of Sid Meyer's Civilization MCMXVI! This is your reminder to occasionally take a deep breath. Be sure to eat your greens. Drink plenty of water. Don't let the cyclic nature of the challenges get to you. Most importantly, where are the complete and unredacted Epstein files?#Epstein #EpsteinFiles #Trump #Clinton #PrinceAndrew

      Ich fasse mal die bürgerlichen Medien derzeit zusammen:Die Linken sind schuld, dass die Rechten tun, was Rechte tun wollen.

      Ich fasse mal die bürgerlichen Medien derzeit zusammen:Die Linken sind schuld, dass die Rechten tun, was Rechte tun wollen. Weil sie nicht rechts genug sind, nämlich.Außerdem sind die Linken schuld, wenn sie sagen, dass Rechte rechts sind und rechte Dinge tun, wenn Rechte Aua bekommen.Kurz: Die Existenz von allen Menschen, die nicht rechts sind, ist schuld daran, dass Rechte leider, leider rechts sein müssen. Denn gäbe es die nicht, dann müssten sie nicht rechts sein.1/2

      I've torn down and rebuilt my personal instances of #nextcloud more times than I care to admit.

      I've torn down and rebuilt my personal instances of #nextcloud more times than I care to admit. Crashes, breaking upgrades, AIO migration, and now issues in putting it behind #tailscale which Nextcloud REALLY doesn't like. Skill issue? Absolutely. I tore it down for the last time recently and decided it's overkill for what I need. I set up #syncthing this week, and IT'S MAGIC. Sure, I have fewer features but all I really needed was file sync that I could use with my own off-site backup. Throw Markor in there for notes and I'm a happy guy. I can't believe I was using an industrial tractor for a shovel job this whole time.
