Those charts are hilarious: wow, it gives the right answer 62.5% of the time and only makes up completely false answers 37.1% of the time! It's like Russian roulette, but worse!

They control moderation, as they also do on Reddit. I don't know about Lemmy but I have personally been shadowbanned on their Reddit sub. They can't do that on Mastodon.
It was still a completely naive and idiotic thing to say and doesn't show the forethought and strategic thinking that comes with being a good CEO, especially one of a service that could literally put people's lives in danger if jeopardized.
They also can't control the narrative on Mastodon like they do on Reddit and Lemmy through "volunteer mod" Nelizea. I'm glad I quit using them — they are becoming tech bro chuds (or maybe always were but just hid it better)
How true, Americans are much more oppressed and less free than Ukrainians under Yanukovych or Egyptians under Mubarak. People everywhere are saying they're the biggest victims by far — yuge victimhood.
Look at countries that have successfully enacted change when they are angry with their government: Serbia currently, France whenever pensions are threatened, the Maidan Revolution, the Arab Spring (for what that was worth). What do they all have in common? Hint: it isn't posting from the comfort of your couch.
"What do you mean, I can't fix this by posting on social media? Stop oppressing me 😢😢😢"
Wow how brave of them to reduce their operating expenses in protest. Truly inspiring.
