I’d be very surprised if anything functional actually comes out of this. Far more likely they get scammed out of the money by garbage like the current “AI writing detection” methods, with terrible success rates that cause more societal problems than they solve.

I also feel like a lot of the value of chronological is lost if I think it’s algorithmic recommendations. If I don’t know I’m browsing the latest? I’ll likely just think the algorithm is serving up some garbage. Especially somewhere like Facebook, where people haven’t really been curating their feed for years, just… following whoever to be polite and letting the algorithm take care of it.

Thank you! I’ve just been browsing with NSFW turned off, but: A) I actually would rather turn on the blur function if there wasn’t literal porn throughout the “all” feed. B) A bunch of mild soft core stuff like “pretty women” and “celebs” gets through anyway.

Can’t believe it never occurred to me to use the block button to shape the all feed.

Is this whole comment section really about one comment from six years ago, where all he stated is that he’s grateful his wife wasn’t aborted (I’m assuming that was considered)?

Because I find it hard to take that as all that damming. From the tone of the conversation here, I was expecting several comments over the years stating extremes like that abortion should be illegal, or that rape victims should be denied access to it.

Do we even know that he knew about any of this scandal with March for Life in 2017? Especially if he’s not supported it since (which I assume this article would bother to include if he had?)
