    Good

    But, I’m more excited about the possibility that here in Australia they might allow you to block random crap coming up on your feed you didn’t follow. As every right wing Nazi idiot is posting rage bait and bullshit to get attention on it

      "I know Facebook is a Nazi org, but I’ll just keep generating money by continuing to use it and hope they allow me to block Nazi shit. "

        I operate meetup events. My choices are meetup which is overpriced, or Facebook. Unless you have any suggestions

        Also, the benefit of this stretches far what I do. It’s the easily corrupted dckheads who won’t be absorbing this stuff on a daily basis.

        The reality is, I believe a huge factor in all the shit going on is Facebook at the moment. Laws like this are highly beneficial

          I appreciate that you’ve made an effort to find alternatives. I refuse to use Meta products and it’s so frustrating when promoters act like I’m a freak for even asking if they post announcements anywhere other than IG

          What about a Lemmy meetup communuty for it? The person running the server for your province or state might allow it. I think DBzer0 might allow users to make their own communities.

            I’ve considered making an invite actually here for Melbourne Australian hikers… But, not sure anyone would notice
