YUUUUGE

I didn’t knew that, not everyone is an expert. For example, my Google account world with “google.com” and “google.fr” with the same login info.

The EU is breathing in their neck to force them to allow cross platform compatibility. Also, Google messenger, like WhatsApp, is end to end encrypted (just the message, not the Metadata).

That’s why I love this video, it explains it very well in a graphic manner:

Every should know about the Sykes–Picot Agreement, it’s one of those treaties/laws that have long lasting consequences in the current world (same with ww2 agreements).

There’s also the overuse plot of “Main character has this skill, which is not valued in his world or the main character is actually bad at it, but, somehow, in the isekai world, the main character is now good at that skill” Unless is a comedy, it’s boring and predictable.

Neither, a lot of celebrities, companies and media outlets are in Mastodon. A lot of artists are moving to BlueSky.

Because it doesn’t come with instructions and there’s a lot of “buts”. For example, it took me a while to understand that, for example, I can’t log in “Mastodon.world” with my “Mastodon.social” account, I had to go to “Mastodon.social” to log in and THEN I can access to the content in “Mastodon.social”. Also, there’s the problem of instances blocking other instances. I would be pretty salty if I couldn’t access an account I followed, because the admins of the instance in which the account is hosted, decided to block the instance in which my account is in. That’s why the mayority of users go to the biggest instance (Lemmy.world and Mastodon.social for example), because instances blocking the biggest instance is unlikely to happen (you would block a lot of potencial users and therefore, diminished attractiveness of your instance). But everyone doing that defeats the whole point of federalization. Also, there’s the problem of defederalizing of instances. Also, the problem of safety, privacy and security. For example, a massive security fault was recently discovered in Mastodon and a server was raised by the police and all of it’s data captured by the police. In simple words, the fediverse is not the panacea it was sold like, the kinks are not ironed out.

I’d recommend the Revanced version (is a fork that removed ads and blatant trackers). But it doesn’t stop Tik Tok from tracking what you see. For example, Facebook, technically it doesn’t have third party tracker, because the app itself is a tracker.

At least they are honest about it.
