NoodlePointto Reddit•Reddit’s removal of user feedback channels raises questions about platform governance2·1 month agoLemmy.World
This.
NoodlePointto Reddit•Reddit (or at least subreddit) does not allow links to lemmy or piefed.2·2 months agobut it’s a pretty uncommon rule I think
Some don’t want users to bring in social media slop in their subreddit, as they prohibit brigading and doxxing behavior.
Makes me think how for decades a lot of nice things were destroyed for scrap materials or for entertainment – like this Pontiac GTO – and now many are scrambling to find and pay hugely for antiques.

NoodlePointto Reddit•A little observation I wanted to share, how lemmy's engagement per user is higher than reddit(10x by some metrics)1·2 months agoFrom Philippines, was there on reddit for about a decade. There’s that many from that country because most of the users are young and looking for discussion spaces for their hobbies, mainly PC and console gaming but also other niche interests, progressive politics and alternative lifestyles because Facebook is becoming oversaturated with unwanted content.

They never expected a gaslighting autarky-loving opportunist to destroy their business altogether.
we visited a museum showcasing the local Filipino culture
I daresay you name that museum, it needs to be known so that we are properly warned.
Have you guys experienced these policies?
Rarely in my experience since because I was educated in public schools and there is no language enforcement and never been tapped on the shoulder just because of a language to speak.
is it all just for the prestige?
With regionalism being strong in some places, there are some Bisaya – either Cebuano, Ilonggo, or Waray, etc. – who see Tagalog as a form of “cultural imperialism” from so-called “Imperial Manila” and as such they would actively or passively oppose it, and instead rather use English as a bridge language to try talking with other Filipinos from other parts of the country. Yeah, and some have weaponized language to the extent they would give certain perks and privileges to those speaking their own language.
In addition, some individuals or organizations are enforcing the concept that English is a language of the “educated” or the “civilized”, and asking people to leave their regional language behind their homes.
Will be unsurprising if they’re accepting full-on MAGA and Kluxer fanatics.
Intimidation factor. In addition to militarization of police.
In my country, fast food is too expensive, much cheaper to be eating homestyle meals at a roadside shop.
