Yep haha exactly like that, excellent satire, you absolutely nailed the tone of someone trying to distract from actual effective policy changes using conspiratorial language.

I always laugh when people talk about the CIA as if it is a single person, and they try to establish a sense of character by mentioning things it did in the 50s, as if any of the people involved back the. were still involved today.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Anyone know a good Selfhosted yt-dlp manager?English
2·7 days agoWhen I tried it I got the feeling it’s more for people looking to backup/archive entire YouTube channels than those (such as myself) basically just having what is functionally an RSS feed of most recent videos released this week (for example).
But like I said, it’s absolutely great at what it does I just found it waaaay too complicated than the simple “use jellyfin as a YouTube app replacement” I was looking for.

1·7 days agotubearchivist is great but probably overkill for someone just looking to subscribe and watch with Plex/Jellyfin instead of the YouTube app.

21·10 days agoAudiobookShelf is great. One of the most polished self hosted apps out there and has a lot of great features that are lesser known (like converting to m4a)
Pardon my ignorance but isn’t that exactly what Inoreader and Feedly do?
Yeah cuz if you did you’d be forced to drop the victim narrative you appear to be emotionally dependent on

25·21 days agoHow do you ping a location update? I’ve tried sending the hidden sms that’s supposed to do is but it only seems to work about 25% of the time, and I have to run the actual location check like 3-4 minutes later
i havent even looked at the blocklist tbh but my position is that insisting you have the right to force your speech upon someone else when they have made it extremely clear they wish to block you is just reprehensible behavior in my book. “No means no”! But it especially means no when someone is telling you to leave them alone like they did.
you are not being silenced. someone blocking you on the internet is not an attack on you, you are not a victim, and it does not give you the right to attack someone else
like i said if you want to choose to view that as evidence of secret conspiracy or whatever that’s totally fine with me, I don’t but also I’m not the one pretending im under attack because someone else on the internet doesn’t like me
people are allowed to block us and find us annoying! im sorry but it’s true. We can choose to let it bother us and go around wallowing in self pity, but most people dont want to be around someone like that so again the fact that you ended up blocked should not be a surprise.
that link looks very clear and posted in the pubic repo to me but yeah dude like i said if you want to imagine that someone else blocking you is somehow an attack then you certainly have that right but the only person you’re hurting is yourself
Edited for clarity
Yeah it’s not for me either, but I also believe that people have a right to not have other’s speech or behavior forced upon them, which is kind of exactly what ActivityPub was created to facilitate and what separates it from corporate platforms.
how mature
golly I wonder how you ended up on a blocklist lol
nah it was very clear and posted to a public repo but if you want to see yourself as a victim of some conspiracy I can’t stop you
no deal
I don’t consider an optional ui used by optional instances with an optional and clearly labeled feature that enables an optional GUI toggle that allows users to control a filter that does not actually ban anyone to be “malware”
hey please dont call me a loser





Sorry didn’t realize you were a true believer™ let’s try to remember we have the same goals even though it’s for different reasons!
