YouTube’s Appeal Decision Is In: My Inactive Manager Channel Stays Banned—And It’s Complete Bullshit

It's been less than five hours since I woke up to discover my YouTube channels had been terminated overnight, and I've already received YouTube's appeal decision. Spoiler alert: it's not good news. In fact, it's exactly the kind of generic, nonsensical response that proves YouTube's moderation system is running on autopilot with zero human oversight. Let me walk you through what happened today, because the timeline alone shows how broken this entire process is. The Timeline of This […]

A 404 Media article has hit on something I've been doing myself for a while. I've started to move from online streaming services back to physical media.

It seems that I'd almost forgotten how nice it is to have control over something that I've purchased.

In my case, I'm getting more DVD/BluRay, audio/music CD, but the article talks about cassette tapes

🗨️ There's a clear discrepancy between the slogan "Disrupting power" and allowing advertising - so that users from got the German right wing party AfD presented on the start page 🤡 (and my colleague is per definition a socialist)

So if someone is a indie news reader or , please do inform the outlet about it, I have no time for magazines using google ads to earn money. Thank you.

Porn-driven OnlyFans could sell for billions despite ‘filth factor’.

London-based internet content subscription service OnlyFans is reportedly in discussions to sell for as much as $8 billion (€7bn), Reuters has reported, citing unnamed sources.

However, the price tag could be impacted by its porn-driven content.

"Nonpolitical", a new synonym for reactionary and fascist bullshit propaganda, disinformation, and blatant lies mixed with bad jokes:

"- We found 320 online shows — 191 right-leaning and 129 left-leaning — that were active in 2024 and covered news and politics and/or had related guests. These shows had at least 584.6 million total followers and subscribers.

- We found substantial asymmetry in total following across platforms: Right-leaning online shows had at least 480.6 million total followers and subscribers — nearly five times as many as left-leaning.

- Across platforms — YouTube, Rumble, Twitch, Kick, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok — right-leaning online shows accounted for roughly 82% of the total following of the online shows we assessed.

- Comparatively, left-leaning online shows had nearly 104 million followers and subscribers across the eight platforms — nearly five times less.

- Nine out of the 10 online shows with the largest followings across platforms were right-leaning, with a total following of more than 197 million. The only left-leaning show among the top 10 was What Now? with Trevor Noah, which had 21.1 million total followers and subscribers across platforms.

- Our analysis — which looked entirely at shows with an ideological bent — found over a third self-identify as nonpolitical, even though 72% of those shows were determined to be right-leaning. Instead, these shows describe themselves as comedy, entertainment, sports, or put themselves in other supposedly nonpolitical categories.

- Out of 320 online shows, right-leaning programs categorized as comedy — 15 shows in all — had 117.5 million followers and subscribers, or 20% of the total following of all programs we assessed. This category included The Joe Rogan Experience, This Past Weekend with Theo Von, and Full Send Podcast."

"Pensar que la fuga de Twitter/X es la gran migración de la era digital es un espejismo fruto de las altas temperaturas y un inflacionado optimismo de la voluntad. Este no es el primero ni será el último desplazamiento de una plataforma a otra. La evolución del ecosistema mediático está atravesada por constantes migraciones entre dispositivos (del walkman al iPod), formatos (del WAV al MP3), medios (del cine a la televisión) y plataformas (de Twitter/X a… ¿Mastodon? ¿Threads? ¿Bluesky?). Tratándose de un ecosistema complejo, lo peor que podemos hacer es reducir estos desplazamientos a movimientos lineales de A > B o pensar que se producen por una causa única. La mirada evolutiva nos debería servir para comprender mejor estas dinámicas de la esfera mediática que, cada tanto, nos obligan a tomar decisiones."

Dear #onlinemedia,
why don't you offer the purchase of just 1 edition, you know, like in the last century, when print was all the rage, OR even just 1 article, as if you were in the modern times, where such a thing is digitally possible?

I neither can nor want to subscribe to a hundred newspapers around the world every week, as I neither have the funds nor the capacity to do the cancellation admin.

What I DO want, is pay you and your journalists for their work and ...

Intimacy does not scale (2021)

In intimate conversation —a case where both or all parties in the same space and time — there are additional ample side-channels for subtexts to be communicated, including both conflict-diminishing and conflict-escallating ones. And miscommunications and disproportionate responses still occur all the time. Who has never had a fight or misunderstanding with a partner?

It’s far harder in mediated discussion. ...

Speaking of #socialmedia, #civics and #onlinemedia, is #CivicPlus as good as it gets?
Or are there better platforms that might wean municipalities and officials away from using #Facebook for public outreach?
civicplus.com/

Come to think of it, have any #techjournalists compared #LocalGovernment computing services, including who owns them and how much they cost municipalities?
