  • I personally wouldn’t mind algorithmic recommendations if:

    • you can control or choose the algorithm
    • you can turn it off, or it turns off after you follow N amount of users

    Discovery is important when you’re initially signing up, but once you found the people you want to follow, you don’t really need it any more. It should just be there to help new users, essentially. As long as it’s open source and not run for profit, there’s not the traditional incentive to keep your eyeballs on the app like we see with the other networks.









  • So, you’re saying they’re watching Fox News all day every day, but tune into 60 minutes every week, which is the only thing they watch on CBS, and this is the first time there’s a 60 minutes episode that clashes with their MAGA worldview?

    You think this is more likely than this just being the classic manufactured right wing outrage machine that spins up every week about whatever the right wants their base to be angry about?








  • The ones that voted are by definition here legally, and they’re susceptible to the propaganda about illegals coming in and taking jobs and getting all sorts of resources from the government. If you believe that, while your path to citizenship was anything but that, you might start thinking something needs to be done about the border too.

    While the border wall stuff is definitely rooted into racism, the economic argument will still speak to immigrants that are in the country legally. Of course, if Trump is serious about “rounding up illegals” or whatever the plan is, a lot of legal residents will also end up caught in the drag net, and it’s going to suck for everyone.
