Bluesky is mostly moderated by collarborative community blocklists, and so far atleast, the experience has been great.

And do remember that bluesky is simply a privately owned server for a FOSS protocol and frontend.

I mean bsky gained an influx of 1.5 million in past few days.

Really? I’ve had to block maybe one person, but the moderation lists are really well curated and crowdsourced so it mostly hasn’t been a problem.

So it’s basically sugar syrup.

Also think of the lost treatments we won’t discover.

The NIH is currently the largest health funder on earth. Kennedy will go there and stop any useful research and instead start his “raw milk” and anti-vaxx bullshit.

Then even if one day that bullshit is over with, we’ll have to spend our research dollars debunking kennedy’s flawed research he funded, instead of actually useful stuff.

I’m not kidding when I say this election might mean worldwide health research gets held back like 5-8 years.

A few random ones off the top of my head

Honestly chatgpt with memory is pretty great, although privacy wise I’m very careful with what I say.

If you care about privacy more than your AI friend being smart try Claude or Mistral but that’s a significant downgrade in conversational quality.

It pisses me off that these people get some of the most interesting people on earth to join their podcast and then all turn out to be MAGA arseholes.

I have to wonder who pays them and how much.

Hopefully you can find a couple people to fill in the mod team.

If my experience on lemmy is worth anything, pretty much any community where the majority of posts are in picture formats, and where the content is accessible/understable to most, usually grows pretty quick.

Congrats on that one.

Overnight success 😁

I’ve already created around 6 communities and mod an extra two across this account and my alts so I kind of have my hands full here

Also if I had the energy to make and run a community I think one I’d love on lemmy is probably c/fivethirtyeight or c/guerrillagardening so I’d probably prioritise one of those.

Probably gonna break real easily but a cool project nonetheless.

Ban disposable evapes though!

That’s probably a good explanation. Pretty much everyone of these podcasting guru type people start of centrist or leftcenter then once they start to mix with the big leagues and make lots of money, all of the sudden they become right wing figures.

Joe Rogan, Lex Friedman, Andrew Huberman, Bret Weinstein

Man, I miss the r/decodingthegurus reddit sub where we could make fun of and expose these dipshits.

Ditto and ditto

He used to be pretty progressive and had Bernie on his podcast. He used to be in favour or medicare for all, legalising weed, etc.

idk where he stands now though.

I listened to the man until around 2018, by then it was starting to get clear he was becoming increasingly “macho” and elitist so I stopped.
