I hope that the people who work at Burger King are able to quickly find new jobs. Better jobs.

Personally, I don’t feel comfortable giving my ID to social media. Especially not with the many data breaches that are happening these days. I think it was a month or three ago that Discord had their data breach and got thousands of ID’s stolen of people.

Yet Discord still decides to push forward their “verification system with ID or face scan”.

Also here’s a screenshot of a comment someone once made and that also got me thinking about the future of “showing your ID and/ or Face scan to ‘protect the kids’”. Another note; people and especially teenagers will nearly always find ways to get around rules. I mean, we all were teenagers before and we often also got around the rules.

I’m fine with not having an algorithm

Then why even mentioning it (in a more negative than neutral tone)?

I just don’t feel the need to see some ladies twat unless I’m looking for that content specifically. I’m not saying the platform is bad, just it needs some work still.

Whether you use the platform or not, does not really matter (to me). You are right the platform needs some work and they’re putting the work while being one of social media platform that’s being targeted by Zionists.

I have written what, I wanted to write. I have shown the text and image the developer wrote. That’s about it. I’ll leave it at that, I guess.

I don’t know what upscrolled is, but if it’s not federated then who cares?

You care enough to write about the specific app that, you don’t know about.

Your account is 4 days old, that says enough. I won’t respond to you after this comment.

That mixed with not having an algorithm

Is not that a part of the advantage? You, the person, deciding what you want to see and follow. I think Mastodon and BlueSky are similar in that regard.

I’ve seen a lot of sexual stuff I was not looking for.

Follow the developer of the app and you’ll understand why;

as you may already know, many bad actors are trying to flood the platform with all kinds of illegal and nasty content, for the obvious reasons. we are working around the clock to counter this. it will get better. we apologize for any disgusting content you may encounter while we fix this.

I have been on UpScrolled for about 23-25 days and have not seen any Nazi stuff. However, I keep my feed and the people I follow mainly about Anime and Palestine.

If there’s indeed Nazi stuff on it, I hope the developer removes it. Zionism and Nazi are both insanely shit ideologies that should have never come to existence.

UpScrolled already having questionable ethics

Which questionable ethics? I’m out of the loop.

EDIT: I’m sorry but I’ll take this post and some of the allegations with a grain of salt. Your account is made in January 2026 and this is your first and only post. Your comments are only in here as well. However, I do hope you can clear up about which ethics are questionable on UpScrolled.

any word can sound like an insult if you say it with the right tone, I think?

Oh, definitely! I’m half European and half Arabian and living in Europe. Back in my teenage days, when having a huge conflict at school. I would shout “ibn” which just means “son”. Shout it in the right tone when angry and people will think it is some huge insult.

Cool that it is possible but I rather ditch Discord when this is forced upon me.

“You are not allowing our hate speech on your platforms, that’s scandalous!”. That’s kind of what I’m reading.

From what I have seen and read, most conservative news is pretty much just hate speech wrapped in excuses.

Illegal, certainly. Are they going to do something about it, definitely not.

I have joined yesterday two days ago and so far, no Nazi problem on my feed. However, it is mostly regarding politics.

I keep my feed focused on anime as far as that’s possible.

EDIT: Read wrong. You don’t have to try the app if you don’t want to. Up to you.

Don’t know about Redlib nor about Nitter.

Apparently some people are going over to UpScrolled. It is an Palestinian-made app similar to TikTok/ Instagram.

I have tried UpScrolled but it is still barebones but seems interesting (imo).

I’m surprised the AI has purple hair. Usually, Far-right are against things that are not in the “normal” (blonde, black or brunette).

The title though “far right social media star”. The world seems to be going on fire more and more.

Isn’t this already done with Mario game(s)? I think it was Super Mario Deluxe, where if you die enough times, Luigi shows up and will be doing the entire level for you including the ‘boss’ fight.

Opinion down voting brings useless negativity to Lemmy.

My own experience on Lemmy is that this has been happening more and more. It was not like that when the first Reddit migration happened. However, a year later and that kind of toxicity has started to arise.

It’s one of the reasons why I disabled the visibility of the votes. It also can manipulate on how someone thinks*.

Personally, besides the more technology knowledge on Lemmy… I find that Lemmy slowly but steadily adopts more and more Reddit behaviors in terms of user behavior.

I’m on an instance that does not support down votes. That means, if one disagrees, they need to use their brain and write a comment.

Honestly that sounds great. It means people usually have to actually write why they don’t agree.

EDIT; something went wrong with formatting and copied text twice. Edited it to get it correct again.

I have always done that to people who are unfriendly towards me. It also gives them a notice that I won’t be replying to their unfriendly behavior.

Never used Twitter/X so I have no idea how it is on there.

Though, I wonder why do I need to explain my reason for announcing to block someone but someone else being unfriendly or having a toxic behavior seems to be okay and is not questioned. What other social media have you used in the past?

I assumed that moderators just ban people they do not like or at least remove comments. Blocking people that you do not like is helpful. Keeps your feed and comments section clean and brings less unfriendly behavior. I’m a huge fan of Lemmy’s blocking, it does not prevent the blocked person to comment but it does help the blocker to prevent seeing anything from the blocked person. Brings peace to both, one can simply comment and the other will not see it.

I do not know, you tell me? Anyway, it seems my particular comment got some people agitated. Did not expect to see people getting agitated over a single random comment and question.
