I didn’t know anything about Bhutan before reading this, but their culture sounds outstandingly Solarpunk to me.

Not so sure about that. Their happiness index and “culture” are a marketing stunt to lure tourists.

The same Tim Apple that still bends over for CCP and operates in Russia, finances blood minerals but with layers of contractors to avoid direct connection while it markets itself as “sustainable”, “made from recycled parts” is a bad guy?

Say it ain’t so…

I mean, if you get locked up in a zoo, you’d get pretty messed up too. A companion (a playful one at that) would always help.

“made” is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, they “modified” it.

Telegram for random public chatter/file storage(with password lock), talking to strangers without giving them your number. Signal for personal/private conversations.

Spread your data (encrypted or not) around, so a single entity doesn’t own your digital life. Your device can handle 2 apps and don’t give them permissions willy nilly. Geez, every one of these posts just wants to start a flame war.

Why are there no riots? Why are we so numb towards these injustices?

Because most of the outrage is downplayed as whackjobs and is downranked by social media companies so exposure is always low.

Why do you think the government either controls the social media networks or have internet bot farms (50 Cent Army, Hasbara, Indian IT cell, )?

US Air force was the most active city in reddit in 2013. I’m sure they were doing nothing nefarious at all, but reddit had to scrap the city reveal after that. hmm…

They shape the narrative they like, anything else is shoved into the dark corner.

As a user, the lemmy API backend is pretty fuckin fast. The default web frontend however is a slug.

Using lemmy with a third party app like voyager is super snappy.

You got “foreign influenced” like US has done it for decades to other countries. US used to call it spreading democracy or some sort.

Does that help?
