Well I wasn’t planning on immediately letting you know I like retro electronics, but have at it
What in the hell is a “Caramel Ribbon Cursetard”
A cursed caramel ribbon custard, I assume.
Pseudo-Spirituality is a good thing to look out for
The amount of guys who think the seventh principle of Hermeticism is a reason to be a sexist dick…
perhaps it would serve humanity greatly if I do not reproduce
You’re correct. Judging people based on an algorithm your have no way of knowing is indeed a red flag ma’am.
I think if I was a woman and I saw that a potential mate’s recommended was full of *ndrew t*int videos or similar, I would take it exactly as that: a red flag. Not an immediate condemnation but a sign that something MIGHT be wrong. It could be that they’re watching the videos with a critical mindset, or the algorithm is just doing some wonky shit, but I would probe further just to make sure that they aren’t a raging misogynist
Yeah I’ll eat crow on that. Tate is in my thumbnails because I’m probably just a little too deep into politics. Maybe not a red flag as much as a bore flag.
My red flag would be showing them NewPipe, with recommendations turned completely off.
The brain rotted mind doesn’t understand the lack of an infinite pit of o-face reaction videos to pick from.
And subscriptions using RSS feeds instead of a YouTube account.
Guilty.
Having no actual presence on social media is considered “creepy” by modern social standards, instead of what I view it as: more secure.
as far as i care, having social media makes you more likely to be insane, because of the aggressive amount of influence that these sites and applications hold over people.
I’ve had the opposite response. Generally I get a “good on ya, I should really delete it too”
If that’s considered creepy then I’m john wayne gacy
I find avoiding social media helps reduce encounters with the insane side of people who somehow appear to be relatively normal in real life.
For instance, I actually like my inlaws in real life, despite having some very different views than they do. On Facebook however, they’re complete fucking idiots that I wouldn’t give the time of day because they would just argue with me about it.
It’s funny, I’m the opposite. In real life, I openly advocate for seizing the means of production and guillotining the rich, but I don’t do that on Facebook because I don’t want to get banned.
It’s odd how that proxy allows people to act feral. It’s like the behavior of a dog behind a fence.
Though I’ll admit to trolling a little bit here and there, so maybe I’m not the best example.
Having no actual presence on social media
I’ve got some bad news for you…
I meant no actual presence on mainstream social media where I’m not using a pseudonym, and exchange profiles with the general public that I meet.
Forums are not social media. How is this hard to understand. Forums have existed for decades longer than social media and if you include forums in the definition of social media then you literally by definition include every comment section on every blog, news site, and even things like the FCC request for comments from citizens.
It’s absolutely idiotic to include forums in that definition. You make the definition so wide as to be useless.
People have gotten confused and declared that any internet based activity that involves interaction is social media. Social media is centered on users (you follow other people, not topics, and people for whatever crazy reason use their real name), whereas there is absolutely no real reason to do that on a forum.
Social media is centered on users (you follow other people, not topics
This is the exact reason I never became interested in Mastodon. Following people just isn’t my style. The only social media I use is YouTube (without an account) because apparently Lemmy isn’t social media.
Great way to put it. That really is the root of it.
if forums are social media, or the internet more broadly is social media, would that include shit like, newspapers? And like, the library?
They ask for your search history then
My browser clears private data at the end of every session.
Same, but you were talking about NewPipe. I assume you use that on your phone.
And while you can disable the search history there, too, it often is convenient not to have to type the name of that thing you want to listen to while you’re driving, so many people leave it enabled.
I just leverage playlists or bookmarks, typically. But while driving, I play my FLAC library off a thumbdrive.
YSK you could also swipe single entries away in your Newpipe search history.
Or switching profiles in GrapheneOS so I can look at my Google apps
Newpipe has recommendations?
It has “hot” but I don’t think the feed is personalized.
deleted by creator
Probably its own kind of red flag.
“Your watch history is disabled”
Smart people?
Maybe smart people, but definitely someone who have probably won’t shut up about one of the following topics:
-
Linux
-
Anti corpo
-
Ads on websites
None of these are bad or unpopular things, mind you.
It’s just a sign of someone shifted a liiiittle more extremist.
They’ll probably nag at you to leave reddit to join their weird website called Lemmy. Maybe insist you use their to a
Plexopen source jellyfin server that only works 2/3 of the time.Of_course_i_know_him_hes_me.jpg

It’s called finding a shared interest!
I’m glad I’m old enough where I can actively pretend like I don’t know how to use technology.
Like I was at a bar, and some weirdo asked if I was on Facebook and I shrugged and said I don’t understand technology and they go, “Totally makes sense at your age!”
I’d definitely lose interest in a conversation with someone who responded with that.
They’re bad enough online.
you dropped this king "
You will address Henry by his rightful title of Emperor. Surely, he hath earned it righteously, not pulled it from the ether at the behest of a website.
it will be returned in due time, do not worry.
My red flag would be telling her “fuck off creepy stranger”
Jokes on her I use PipePipe without signing in…I have no recommendations.
Green flag in my book
It’s a sign of sugma
All right, someone’s gotta play along.
What’s sugma?
Sugma balls! Thanks for playing.
Not even the wackiest scenario he’s done.
Bro legit took this one incredibly seriously and talked about the consequences of having to explain sudden freak accident deaths to pre-schoolers and how conspiracy theories would proliferate about Reagan being responsible because supposedly he had pushed for the launch to stay on schedule even when issues came up because the plan was for him to make s phone call to the crew of the ship from the SotU address that year.
Basically Reagan would go down in pop culture canon as being the man who murdered big bird, and whatever consequences that sprung from that would be the biggest shift vs present timeline instead of the obvious fact that big bird would be canonically dead since all the normal viewers would have seen him go up in a fireball and die.
So what you are saying is that we would have flying cars and free healthcare if Big Bird had died in the Space Shuttle?
Nah he’s a bird，he could fly on outta there. A little singed, maybe, if he dawdled
Allegedly, he screamed “wildcard, bitches” before kicking the door and jumping out.
Classic Big Bird
Hmmm I wonder what this say about me.
I watched this video because of you
It was interesting 👀
Made me want to taste test myself, am I doomed?
I dont think so. I shared this pic in a discord and literally seconds after a couple dudes started asking about the results of that test. I guess we all wonder that because I dont think the percentage of population using flavoured condoms is that high.
I’m not logged in because I don’t want any suggestions! I’m using ReVanced of course.
It took me until your comment to realize i can take back control of my feed.
And the required: “nice” for the 69.
For browsers, install the addon UnHook to remove video suggestions.
