Meta apps / "services" are spyware and social engineering and they're barely trying to hide it at this point. TBH they could say it out loud and like 1% of people would delete the apps

I just took a peek and you're right. But there is an option to "pause" a group, I didn't explore enough to see if it could be permanent. The rule that you can only delete a group when it has no members is absurd, wtf

You should be able to "archive" a group as admin, which essentially shuts it down. I haven't tried but I've seen it happen in other groups. And yeah, it's really disturbing what people will accept from FB for the sake of inertia and comfort. I've told a couple friends about Meta using the localhost loophole for tracking and recommended they delete the apps and just use the web version if they need to, and they all still have the apps. Who even needs privacy, right? Sigh

It seems only image containing content federates to Pixelfed, so text only posts are not visible

That's interesting (a little chaotic with the different sized images but still). I've been using Interstellar for Piefed and it apparently doesn't support that, so I had no idea

I had a bad feeling about that with Pixelfed when I saw them repeatedly ignoring questions about when to expect groups, ha! I know you can follow / reply to Lemmy groups with Mastodon, but can you post to them from there? Or from Pixelfed?

Maybe I haven't given it a super fair chance, but I was not impressed with Friendica. I only tried it on the webapp, but the interface was just depressing and not super intuitive. I keep hearing it's a good substitute for FB but it needs some work before I would feel comfortable recommending that to people

I'd be overwhelmed and convinced someone hates me again within two months but man does that sound nice

Thing is people really don't know what brains look like or the force that would be required to crack the skull. I don't think a deer is capable of it.

BUT it very well could have cracked an antler and busted open a good wound and left a bloody mess that you might assume were brains.

But also this sounds like total BS.

Nope, gross. I was already considering cancelling my subscription, so this makes my decision easier.

And somehow they're gonna go home thinking they're heros.

I know someone who is trying to get their young kid evaluated and potentially diagnosed and now they're having second thoughts. I don't know how they're putting this registry together but I wouldn't want my kid on it
