  • Any intentional choice made to capture human attention functions as an algorithm.

    For instance, when a creator posts an intentionally silly title, it triggers a predictable urge in users to comment on that silliness. This deliberate cause-and-effect cycle means the creator’s strategy itself is the engagement-driving algorithm. A good example of this human-designed system is ragebaiting which systematically uses manufactured outrage to multiply views and comments

  • For starters don’t call women females. Yes it’s technically accurate or whatever but that’s beside the point.
    Generally avoid complimenting their physique or appearance. Other than that, just be nice to them the way you are with your friends and be platonic by default. “Cool shoes.”
    But like, also be genuine about it. If they aren’t cool shoes then don’t say they’re cool shoes. Find something else that’s cool.

  • Any good thing is ruined once it’s co-opted by capitalism.
    AI and LLMs (In my very very personal and completely subjective opinion) is the coolest shit humanity has ever invented and under the right system would’ve been unanimously celebrated.
    But noooooooo, capitalism had to go and fucking turn a miraculous tool for human creativity and knowledge into a relentless driver of layoffs, corporate slop and copyright theft because some greedy fucks want more money for themselves than they know what to do with.
    But, well, that’s just, like, my opinion, man.

Hi friends,
So i’m on the https://piefed.social/c/burnout feed at the moment, and someone posted https://piefed.social/post/2278925, but I can’t seem to see it on the feed. I only see the post that I made.
Is there maybe a moderation queue I am unaware about that requires me to first verify the post before it is publically displayed?
Help here would be greatly appreciated <3

EDIT: Ohhh you know what… I seemed to have forgotten that I activated the setting that hides posts I’ve already interacted with. my bad… ehhheh.

Medabots

English

!medabots@piefed.social

A community for the western Medabots fandom! Medabots (or Medarot in Japan) is a Japanese franchise of sentient fighting robots. Although only available briefly in the west as an anime, there have since still been Japanese media and many fans from around the world. This is not to be confused with the bootleg of the same name.

  • When I’m scrolling any feed, whenever I see a post I don’t want to see, I block that community or add a keyword to my filters.
    So far I’ve blocked over a hundred communities and it’s killed most of the adrenal rage-bait political posts that don’t do anything other than rile me up. It’s one thing to be aware of shitty things happening but it’s another thing to doomscroll just for the adrenaline hit, and as a person with general anxiety I want to feel better after scrolling rather than worse
