Technology@lemmy.world•Reddit Starts Blocking Mobile Website, Pushing Users to App InsteadEnglish
11·1 day agoThey* called it shadow banning on reddit, but I think of it more as shadow curating. I explain it a little more in other comments itt. Reddit does the curating as well.
IMO, you could do this live pretty easily. When I first started posting, the trolls would complain that I wasn’t consistently online, lol.

12·2 days agoTheres a queue that is part of different instances. What can happen is posts/comments get backed up and the queue takes them all in. When an outage or slowdown happens it can bog down certain servers. Threadiverse (piefes/lemmy/mbin/etc…) up/down votes, comments, posts, etc… it gets slower as more instances connect to others. Its unfortunate but its part of the fediverse protocol. Piefed has some advances there, but it can still get bogged down sometimes.
I would probably agree with this being the issue, if it wasn’t so consistent except when I post out of the norm, I didn’t have a run in with a rogue mod deleting my posts days later, and them seeming to have a shit ton of money when the exodus happened like a corp would have. You may, but most of us don’t know who is behind the curtain for that instance.
With the way it’s happening, it can’t be explained when you really look at the nuances. It’s more like a bug that any of my posts get upvotes. Again, I don’t care about upvotes. This is extremely apparent because I’ve posted for years with only 8 upvotes for most of my posts.

36·2 days agoSo, instead of saying this isn’t happening, why not look into how it could be done? They’re doing it, I have no idea how. Take a look at new and you’ll see that things are being controlled for the all, hot page.
I post almost every work day, I can see the patterns really well from my end. I don’t care about upvotes as well, so I don’t really have any emotion attached to it other than it pisses me off that I’m probably not seeing other things they don’t want me to see. That’s really what I hated about reddit too and why I came here.
They could have someone controlling it real time, yeah? That would explain the inconsistency of when I post out of the norm. I’ve been lightly testing them for years now, which is why I believe I can safely say these things.

38·2 days agoYou can read the code? I can’t. It wouldn’t even have to be a permanent code. It cold work for say an hour, take the post out of the running for the front page, and then disappear. The effects would be the same.
I know this is happening, I have no idea how.

24·2 days agoIf an instance has the most people and blocks those people from seeing your post, delays it from posting, or downgrades it as a source, it could easily be done. They have control over their own instance.

418·2 days agoLemmy world does the same thing, but to a lesser extent. Since they have so much of the users on the fediverse, them controlling their front page really controls the votes and who sees what.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Fury Erupts After Google Chrome Sneakily Installs 4 GB AI Model On Users' PCs
121·4 days agoHanff discovered a four-gigabyte file named “weights.bin,” in a directory called “OptGuideOnDeviceModel.” The file contains weights — the learned numerical parameters of an AI model that teach it how to weigh the importance of various data points — of Google’s Gemini Nano, which is designed to live on users’ devices, not the cloud.
“Chrome did not ask,” Hanff wrote. “Chrome does not surface it. If the user deletes it, Chrome re-downloads it.”
