I appreciate your comment. I have personally avoided tiktok due to other parts of the internet (as well as coworkers and friends) portrayal of it. However you shed some light into things I would actually find value in as a person. I do see this sense of community as very good thing. My concern is more on the side of how addicted one can get to it, but I assume if it is giving them a community they never had, is it a bad thing?

I actually quite like your conclusion. Targeted ads have added nothing of value to the common person. I guess it also is part of the reason I blame the addictive nature of these apps, they want you addicted to show ads and make money.

I would assume the average school child is more concerned about instagram or tiktok vs other parts of the internet. I would not be against finding a way to limit access to other sites, but I would prefer a privacy respecting way. Just requiring an ID is a shitty solution and screws over adults more then it helps kids (they will find grandma's id.) If a privacy valuing solution is brought up I would be 1000% supporting it.

I understand the logic that UNESCO is trying to make. However instead of a global ban on the device itself, ban the addictive parts of it. TikTok and most other corporate social media are designed to keep everyone, kids and adults alike as addicted to the platform as possible. Phones are still a valuable resource for a student, including being able to call in the event of an emergency or having access to maps or other things.

Ban the actual evil on the phones, not the phones themselves

The issue is, most of the people left on reddit are damn near addicts. Or those who weren't directly affected by the api and therefor don't care and just jump on the fuck spez cause hating ceos is cool*.

(CEOs should be hated on don't get me wrong, but for actual reasons and be held to that hate, not just hating for a trend)

Depending on your client you might not see the subheading. On jerboa I have to click the post to see it. But regardless clickbait is shit

While I personally think its silly, if the people get that sense of community from doing I wouldn't outright call it stupid.

Used to ask this question alot. But then I realized, its to be part of a community of sorts, either in a random twitch streamer's chat or on reddit. I kinda get it now, and I while I wish people would put this money towards either smaller creators or more charitable causes I do also respect peoples right to spend however they want.

My steam deck is kinda perfect for retro gaming. But this handheld looks neat too, so I might check it out.

Just fyi to prevent misinformation, reddit disabled buying coins when they announced it was being removed. So all these points are leftovers

Google works and it doesn't. I use Duckduckgo, and in general it works decent. Both suck and so does brave search so I don't really have many options that I know of. I always end up searching with reddit to get any real result, as its always the same clickbaity shifty sites.

The sad part is, Google ends up being the best of all the shittyness, because whenever I search some local none of the other engines know what to do. The number of times I have to switch to Google for a address is sad.

I was able to click and access the report fine

Thats a totally a fair thing to store, dubs of different languages tend to be worse preserved.
