We should criticize israel's genocide a lot on facebook so that can be banned to. Free the boomers from mindjail.

You can't. Facebook supresses the shit out of Pro-Palestine content. And Facebook is cutting edge on AI moderation -- It's really hard to fool the automation for very long.

Yeah Al Jazeera actually just released a documentary on this yesterday. It is systematic.

Do you think AI dumping would ruin the site? Like Facebook requires and sells so much data, wouldn't it be cool to flood it with AI generated data and see how that affects them?

I mean I kinda wanna see the social media equivalent of a potemkin village.

I don't rightly know, but I support the research

You can never tell what the rules are, but content about palestine seems to be high risk for getting zucc'd. Plus only ancient people are on facebook.

You forgot Poland! :jurek-krzak:

Seriously though, Facebook is extremely popular in Poland. So much so, that Reddit, Twitter and other crap is only used by people who tend to be stereotypes of those websites. Or they are on JBZD, Wykop, Karachan or other domestic shitsites.

Why Facebook became so popular in Poland in ur opinion comparing with social media.Young generations around the world use more messengers nowdays.

[-] polskilumalo@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 6 months ago

To be frank, I don't quite know per say, but there's a lot of local groups, school groups, work groups, activism groups, and events. And every single one I've encountered uses Facebook, there are even meme pages which are not out of touch with the times that have quite significant user counts.

Part of the issue would be that Facebook pushed out domestic platforms which were similar to it, like NaszaKlasa.

Of course, TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat are popular. But a forum like site? Facebook.

I'm sure that's part of the issue here, it's way easier for the us to censor us-owned platforms

[-] axont@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago

TikTok's servers are in the USA and one of its HQs is in Los Angeles

[-] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 21 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

And even that's not enough control for them.

Anyway what I meant was that you can't just agitate on facebook because it's already in the fully-tamed state that they're mad tiktok isn't in.

[-] combat_brandonism@hexbear.net 23 points 6 months ago

Not really. TikTok US's leadership is full of ex-natsec ghouls.

The issue is that it's way easier to censor/propagandize overseas on us-owned platforms.

TikTok is administered and run in the USA and complies with all US directives. They probably have a CIA consultant on staff and an NSA department that sends over the data to them.
