  • NDP MP Angus calls for investigation into Elon Musk over potential election interference

    Jump

  • I believe this is the first time a Canadian politician has addressed the algorithm as a thing controlled by a very small amount of people instead pretending it's some magical thing.

    This should apply to every social media platform that suggest content to users.

  • What app is so useful, you can’t believe it’s free?

    Jump

  • Big thing is that the dev is very active and responsive to feedback. Which is really useful given Lemmy is in its developmental phase for the most part.

    Unlike Sync which while good is largely abandoned thses days.

  • YouTube shorts disproportionately promotes alt-right content according to this experiment

    Jump

  • I saw a tiktok video talking about how Instagram starts the redpill/incel stuff early for the young people then they become failures in life at which point they push the guru stuff for "guidance".

    EU and even China has at least made a attempt of holding these companies accountable for the algorithm but US and Canadian government just sat there and did nothing.

  • Does Pierre have one likable trait

    Jump

  • He had a bit of quiet spell during the India foreign interference in the Conservative leadership things a couple months back. Funny enough foreign interference report is suppose to come out next week.

  • Instagram is probably notably worse, I have a very establish account that should be very anti that sort of thing and it keeps serving up idiotic guru garbage.

    Tiktok is by far the best in this aspect, at least before recent weeks.

  • Lots of places cropped out Elon arm yesterday and just called it a "questionable arm gesture".

  • 4 of Canada's biggest banks leave Mark Carney-led climate initiative

    Jump

  • At the end of the day it was all pandering in the first place.

    If it isn't a legal obligation then all these mega companies environmental, social and even fact checking activities was essentially just a line item under the marketing budget.

  • Instagram will show your friends what Reels you’ve liked

    Jump

  • I like to block Trump glazers and quite few other accounts of that nature.

    Actually think the the Lemmy style user lookup where you can quickly see what stupid comments people have posted in the past to be rather useful for sifting out the low quality trash.

  • I'm glad that Pierre is dumb enough to start fights with people who don't really care about him.

  • Charlie Angus: "I'm going to say something bluntly, something I've never said about any other political leader: I don't believe Pierre Poilievre is fit to lead our nation." - 69 seconds

    Jump

  • I really can't understand how Jagmeet has been allowed to lead for so long with the results he's had and Charlie didn't even get a shot.

    And then there's this. How do NDP members defended him barely beating Niki Ashton.

    And yet, in the end, the result was not even close. Angus — with 19 per cent of the vote — not only finished more than 30 points behind Singh, he barely beat Niki Ashton (17 per cent) for second place.

  • Pierre Poilievre: Trudeau...they're all Justin Trudeau.

    Jump

  • I think the biggest difference is that while people probably shouldn't some genuinely like Trump but it seems most people really just tolerate Pierre at best.
