PlayStore Review :

This app installed without my permission. There is barely any info about what this app is for. I have all my settings turned off so it asks my permission before downloading anything, and this app still manage to get installed without consent. This is a very shady thing to do. This and another 2 apps also from google (e.g. SafetyCore) that just installed without permission. If my settings mean nothing, this is very worrying. No heads up, nothing.

Per one tech forum (

GBAtemp.net - The Independent Video Game Community
)
this week: “Google has quietly installed an app on all Android devices called ‘Android System SafetyCore’. It claims to be a ‘security’ application, but whilst running in the background, it collects call logs, contacts, location, your microphone, and much more making this application ‘spyware’ and a HUGE privacy concern. It is strongly advised to uninstall this program if you can.

Collective behavior leads to both collective intelligence and collective stupidity. This also applies to artificial intelligence (artificial neurons) and biological neurons (in my opinion).

An ant mill is an observed phenomenon in which a group of army ants, separated from the main foraging party, lose the pheromone track and begin to follow one another, forming a continuously rotating circle.

Best for user experience :

User want material that is :

• newly published, and
• classified using a hierarchy of methods.

Lemmy has :

• communities
• post
• comments and
• votes

which constitutes such a hierarchy of classification and engagement tools.

Design Flaws + Solutions

Notwithstanding the following :
Despicable//illegal posts should absolutely be deleted. Same from likely comments. But aside from that ...

Features creating user disengagement and disinterest :

Arbitrary deletions :
Since not following communities rules results in posts being deleted. Since this includes active conversation inside such posts. Since such community rules are quite arbitrary and difficult to judge by moderators. ... There has to be a better way than deleting such posts in such circumstances.

Design proposal :

Post unlinking // relinking :
A better design would allow moderator's action (or even bad enough vote totals) to unlink an off-topic-post from a community without deleting it from the instance (site).

Multi-linking of posts :
Better yet, a single post could be simultaneously linked to many communities even across many instances while maintaining one single global space of conversations.

Automatic anti-duplication
Creating duplicates of a post should be prevented automatically ... what should be prevented is the creation of new post linking to the same web page (same URL) as an already existing post does ... unless maybe with special permissions or if made after a long enough elapsed time.

New design's benefits :
This should result in a better user experience by grouping all discussions from one topic inside a unique post ... not dividing into multiple concurrent discussions, almost simultaneously, inside different (( posts // communities // instances )) what is in fact a single topic.
This would also provide peace of mind against arbitrary deletions.

Benefits for moderators
This would also decrease some drama (user to moderator feuds) and simplify moderator's work.

The Budapest Memorandum on Security Assurances comprises three substantially identical political agreements signed at the OSCE conference in Budapest, Hungary, on 5 December 1994, to provide security assurances by its signatories relating to the accession of Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). The three memoranda were originally signed by three nuclear powers: Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom. China and France gave somewhat weaker individual assurances in separate documents. The memoranda, signed in Patria Hall at the Budapest Convention Center with U.S. Ambassador Donald M. Blinken amongst others in attendance, prohibited Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom from threatening or using military force or economic coercion against Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan, "except in self-defence or otherwise in accordance with the Charter of the United Nations."...

This community really needs moderation 🤣

Anticipation story : in 2025 in the USA, the military has to decide whether to side with the people or with a growing tyrannical government.

Danish campaigners are proposing to buy California from the United States and turn it into a territory of Denmark in response to Donald Trump's bid to acquire Greenland. The 'Denmarkification' campaign says it seeks to crowdfund $1 trillion to purchase the US state, after which it plans to instill it with Danish values and make the most of its sunny weather and resources. (...)
(...) Bosses from Danish toy giant Lego would run talks between the US and Denmark, Dutoit told Politico, because 'dealing with children throwing tantrums over missing bricks has made them experts in negotiation.' (...)

i cannot add more blocked users so i went one by one through that list ... starting from the first one i blocked. Not surprisingly, looking at each account, they are either Banned or have No Activity Since ~1 year.

Eventually there could be some site maintenance for [ Banned + Empty ] accounts so to clean our block lists accordingly ...

Some other optimization of this type could be made ... i believe it would free the server from useless work since the server have to compute removing according to Long Block Lists ... this task could be heavy in server work ...

What do you think ?
