A decline in morale after record profits? I think a pizza party is an order.
Not this guy again. In my opinion they tell us small truths like CCP bad, etc. Which isn’t wrong but they’re concealing the true motivation. Why ban it now? Not two years ago? It’s because TikTok needs to be under better control for the upcoming election and in the future. We already know big tech all work in concert to conceal topics for the US.
From what I know, certain special interests want TikTok under their control so they can censor certain topics. People keep saying this is happening because of CCP, etc. But I believe they want this platform “censored” before the elections. The other major players already play ball with censorship but TikTok caught them by surprise.
This isn’t good, now we’re only left with the tech giants dictating what people can see.
that’s for that link.
Because of lobbyists
What data isn’t up for sale?
Can’t believe I can’t buy Spotify premium from their ios app. Thanks Apple
People been doing that now but it comes with limitations. Thanks for the input.
I’m reaching out to see their thoughts. But there are limitations to what they can index.
Good point. They should know they are making public comments. If you want it private then send a private message.
I heard it will send out requests as fast as possible essentially creating a DOS attack but I could be wrong. Also the UI can use some improvement.
It will be very little if not downloading full html pages.
It’s limited to only Peertube and it’s not the most intuitive. I want to work with them on expanding this.
Yep, the idea is to simulate the type of results you get from Google. People trust Lemmy answers more than spam sites now a days.
I mean they are posting on the public internet, they should know that it can be read by anyone. I like the idea of users opting out.
Yep
The fediverse is a few thousand servers, from Mastodon, Lemmy, etc. Can’t say the amount of posts but there are a lot.
So on the more technical side, I plan on using a light weight fast search engine called Sonic (It’s written in rust). I have already used it in other projects and it can handle billions of messages / posts. But it has a cost it doesn’t have faceted search, like for example if you want to exclude certain texts from the results. I think this is a fair trade off. The other solution would be to use something more mature like ElasticSearch but it’ll be expensive (I’m assuming not much money will be made from this and I’m talking about donations)
For scanning sites there are premade lists to start with and it’ll be possible to scan new sites from other instances if found. So a bit of both.
Honestly this is valid. I wouldn’t take this immediately. I would wait a few years to see if there are any side effects, too much money to be made.
