Depends on how you look at things.
Compare your life to the life of people 1 century ago, 2 centuries ago, etc…
News, social networks focus on shit. Lot of things improve. But news only focus on what is going wrong.
Lot if things are shit, but lot other things aren’t.
I buikt a minimal bot some time ago on reddit. It was very simple. It reacted with predefined response when it detected specific terms.
While it was mostly made for a joke. I was surprised how efficient this was. I received mostly positive return as well as some infuriating responses. Still this was effective.
The current platform appears to actively prefer the russian bot presence. So an option might be to provide a FOSS bot maker that anyone could easily use that will also have the property to be easy to not be detected immediately as a bot.
Then these bots should both counter russian bots and promote this bot creation tool or even platform (bit a platform would certainly be easier to detect and block).
But by doing so, the dead Internet is closer than ever.
Code: https://git.esy.fun/yogsototh/redbot
See stack.yaml file for the env var to set. If you run it it should start a web interface. And you can create new bots from there.
cp $fic $fic.$(date -Iseconds)
git commit -a -m "save at $(date -Iseconds)"
# edit $fic
git commit -a -m "save at $(date -Iseconds)"
git push -f
If men learn this, it will implant forgetfulness in their souls. They will cease to exercise memory because they rely on that which is written, calling things to remembrance no longer from within themselves, but by means of external marks.
Plato against writing
Fresh from university I found a job with terrible keyboards. After about 4 months I started to feel constant pain in my wrists. I then switched to vim.
And it solved my wrists issue. But also, I discovered a way to edit text that was so much optimized fat beyond my expectations.
I wrote this article for people that would like to familiarize with vi keybindings.

when you have a certain world vue your frame of reference is this one. And you will prefer to hide reality for a very long time before admitting you made a poor decision. Worse admitting your point of view is not moral, or problematic.
All of this to say, people will not make a direct correlation between facts and their acts. They will find another plausible (for them) explanation.
I will just mention “Troll 2” as the epitome of Vegaphobian movie.
If you are curious I also suggest you to watch “Best Worst Movie” (2009).
I selfhost using forgejo (the same project codeberg is using) and I only clone on github.
This should be a good first step to decentralize.
Once I went to Australia and I had a very long flight. I played Steredenn and I don’t really know how I finished first worldwide after a game that lasted forever.
And I stopped playing not because I lost, but because this was the end of the flight. More than 7 billions. It was a few years ago and I am the 10th now.
purescript if you count “compile to js” as compiled.
Otherwise Haskell
