Funny, knowing Elon, I assumed he would have gone with a whites only mode.

What the fuck is wrong with you.
I get that a lot.
No, what the fuck is wrong with Elon‽
Nothing wrong with argulaZ. They are bothering to read news.
"Hate speech is soaring on Twitter under Elon Musk, report finds"
It's like a 15 year old got ahold of his mom's credit card and bought a social media corporation, and now he's up in his room, all juiced up on Doritos and Mountain Dew, banging away at his keyboard and giggling to himself.
mark is a robot, elon is a 15 year old, both wearing grown up suits! all signs point to yes tbh
I was thinking pretty much the same thing. He’s got the sensibility of a teenage boy. He thinks things like the letter X and the color black are totally cool, and he thinks naming his company “Space-Sex” and one of its spacecraft “Big Fuckin’ Rocket” is the height of humor.
I think black is cool. But only because I'm lazy and it by default looks good with every other color and doesn't clash.
His parents should have been a little firmer with him. "Young man, I don't want to see you on that computer until your comedy is at least at a Colbert level!"
Spot on. He's been spending far too much time on 4chan.
Cool, can't wait until they ban the use of the letter 'e' for non-verified users and wii all hav to wrayt layk this
Avoiding the letter E is already a creative writing style, except you don't hav to wrayt layk this. There's even a Mastodon instance dedicated to it and a funny writeup about what happened when they came across another mastodon instance where the letter E is the only allowed letter.
Someone please make a lemmy client with a word filtering option so I can stop hearing about elmo
Or just scroll past things you don’t want to read about? That is a very viable option.
Not viable when every single post is about him.
There's plenty of communities on Lemmy that don't discuss Elon at all. Curate your own homefeed
are there any communities that discuss technology advancements ? I can't find any sub for technology enthusiasts.
edit: ah gotcha you're just telling him to go away while trying to sound reasonable.
You and the other guy both sound like you're whining that free content isn't being catered to your every taste for you when you have every tool at your disposal to curate your own content.
Y'all are entitled as shit.
You might want to start paying more attention to what people say instead of focusing on how it makes you feel when you participate in an argument.
I thought about it.
Y'all are entitled as shit.
Unless every finger on your hand is broken, it’s always viable. And if every finger is broken, I’m pretty sure you’ve got bigger problems.
I can do you one better with a Tampermonkey script that will replace every reference to his name on every webpage to either "the biggest twat on the planet" or "this dipshit", depending on which works better syntactically.

// etc.
];
var numTerms = replaceArry.length;
var txtWalker = document.createTreeWalker (
document.body,
NodeFilter.SHOW_TEXT,
{ acceptNode: function (node) {
//-- Skip whitespace-only nodes
if (node.nodeValue.trim() )
return NodeFilter.FILTER_ACCEPT;
return NodeFilter.FILTER_SKIP;
}
},
false
);
var txtNode = null;
while (txtNode = txtWalker.nextNode () ) {
var oldTxt = txtNode.nodeValue;
for (var J = 0; J < numTerms; J++) {
oldTxt = oldTxt.replace (replaceArry[J][0], replaceArry[J][1]);
}
txtNode.nodeValue = oldTxt;
}
})();
In practice it looks like this
Options that empower you:
- Downvote button
- Ignore button
- Unsubscribe button
... You are putting the responsibility on the victim?!
(/j)
Downvoting is kind of unfair because it is technology based, ignore button just ignores that specific post, unsubscribe unsubscribes me from all technology posts which I don't want
Why didn't you downvote this thread? In kbin I can see who downvoted it and you're not there.
Beeshaw actually won't let you downvote. Has it's pros and cons
The user I'm asking is from feddit.uk.
Because the downvote button isn't for what I personally don't want to see, it's for what isn't relevant. As much as I don't want to see this, it is technology
surely this will save them
I have a suggestion for him: wouldn't it be a development cost savings if Twitter just provided an API and users could see it on their own clients?
As if I needed any more reason to never use that garbage.
Death to ummm Twitter or whateger
Hasn't it been in dork mode for a while now? Oh wait, I misread... ;)
He already backtracked because of public outrage, dark will be default, light will be an option, dim black (or whatever it was called) is no more. Like 15hrs later. Yet another clueless idiotic decision that backfired...
Another not good decision from Elon.
