  • https://www.theverge.com/2023/7/26/23808331/twitter-x-ads-advertising-incentives-verification-brands

    another change to Twitter’s ad policy. Starting August 7th, advertisers that haven’t reached certain spending thresholds will lose their official brand account verification. According to emails obtained by the WSJ, brands need to have spent at least $1,000 on ads within the prior 30 days or $6,000 in the previous 180 days to retain the gold checkmark identifying that the account belongs to a verified brand.

  • An alternative that may address the concerns in comments would be temporary sub communities for loud events

    1. Create community technology_elon_bs@
    2. Mods of parent community inherit sub
    3. Create a pinned post in parent community announcing.
    4. Close sub community when noise goes down.

  • Yikes 😬

  • Good call. I'll be sure to do that in the future

  • Small PSA for other DC residents that came here to facepalm. There's a DMV Lemmy server. [email protected]

  • I'm always here for an on topic song!

  • Key moments pulled from kagi.com

    • The author is upset and suspicious of Mark Zuckerberg and his new social media platform Threads.
    • The author believes Zuckerberg is not to be trusted given Facebook's history of data harvesting, privacy violations, and spreading misinformation.
    • Facebook bears responsibility for spreading conspiracy theories and radicalizing people.
    • The author thinks the positive reception of Threads is likely due to astroturfing and artificial boosting by Zuckerberg.
    • Zuckerberg has a long history of unethical behavior and putting profits over people.
    • The author worries that Threads will be used to manipulate the 2024 election and spread misinformation.
    • The author thinks people are too easily falling for Zuckerberg's rebranding as a "cool uncle" figure with Threads.
    • The author argues that Zuckerberg has not changed and Threads will eventually become just like Facebook.
    • The author warns against trusting Zuckerberg and Threads, comparing it to a panther that seems cool at first but will eventually harm people.
    • The author believes Zuckerberg's ultimate goal is to control what information people see online.
  • Reminds me of hive! I love it.

  • logseq is amazing. I love that tool. I made the graph analysis plugin. have you ever tried it?

  • I didn't know about calckey! The UI is so pretty!!!

  • I dropped out of college to go be a software engineer. This was before boot camps. At the time it was kind of risky and at first it was hard to get a job but now no one brings it up. I'm glad I didn't have any university debt to pay off so I'm happy with my decision.

  • I don't think that's true. Example: a band I love has a Instagram at remembersportsband if I search threads for that name nothing comes up so I cannot follow them because they have not joined threads
