    I’m counting on these changes actually making our platforms better

    HAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHHA - wheeeeeeeeeeze - HOOOOOHAHAHAHAHAHA-HA-HAAAAA!!!

    The Meta boss was defiant in downplaying the possibility of a mass exodus of users.

    I mean, he’s probably not worrying too much about the US/EU markets, since in terms of MAU, Southeast Asia probably represents over 70% of that. Does anyone know what has been the general reaction to his bullshit over there?

    Mary-Frances Makichen, a Threads user who has 253 followers, lamented that Meta and Zuckerberg “are counting on the fact that it’s too hard for people to leave Threads and IG.”

    Pretty much. It’s probably actually impossible to fully delete the accounts, fuckyzucky lives off users’ data.

    “Being virtuous is virtue signaling.”

    Ok. How about go fuck yourself Mark. Am I vice signaling enough for you now?

    I finally deleted mines. I don’t want to be on platforms using AI bots to engage users and the privacy issues. I just finally told any family where else to follow me and dipped.

    I forgot that not being part of a platform that just changed its rules to openly allow and advocate for hate speech toward trans people is virtue signaling.

    Sorry that I want trans people to live without harassment and have human rights, I guess. What a virtue signaling asshole I am.

    1. Announces moderation team gutted

    2. Announces that “community notes” will handle moderation

    3. Make a bunch of moves to purge anyone in the community that might actually provide a factual “community note”

    Anyone who claims someone is virtue signalling is virtue signalling. Except this one comment.

      Me too, since 2014, before it was a thing, according to Google trends. Does that make us hipsters? We did it before it was cool.
