Twitter algorithms and data it had on voters played no small part on the outcome of the election. Now that it got them the power, they will use that power to secure the twitter and their algorithmic hold on the Americal society to win all the elections going forward. If EU tries to regulate those recommendation algorithms they will use all the leverage they can to prevent that.
I think a good way to cope is to identify what you believe to be the main cause of this and then identify real actions that will fight against it. Most important is that it is something actionable where you can do real things to fight. No matter how radical.
Belief doesn’t need confirmation, but knowledge assumes some confirmation.

Hmm, looks like any AI we develop is destined to go back to GOFAI with a bunch of IFs and THENs.
Those foundries are literally the only thing that keeps the whole world on their side and prevents PRC invasion. I’d pay those farmers hefty buck to spare the water.

Of course Biden shouldn’t do anything heinous, but he definitely should do something earthshaking against either Republican party or the Supreme Court just to make a point.
Why wouldn’t they have a up/down multi-bucket contraption instead? And then have only one donkey pull the wheel to power it.
I don’t post almost anything online. I mostly just comment. But even the comments I make I sometimes consume as content - I really like comming back and rereading them to enjoy how good and smart I’ve been.
Lemmy is an improvement on Reddit, but imo not by much. There really is no innovation on the fundamental concept of subreddits/communities. The issue with Lemmy is that I’ve come across so many promising communities that quickly die off after the initial spurt of activity. I wonder if there is a better organic way to grow the “online discussion” from some form of general cespool, that can segementize only later when those needed segments (communities) emerge naturally.
Might as well use a bike instead. Or an e-scooter.
