Hey comment section I forgot to add the URL to this post before posting it earlier today, I added it in now.

 

An erra is to come to an end as the Eu says enough is enough and introduces new rules and hefty fines.

You know Nintendo is just weird.

They file a patent lawsuit against an indie game, just because someone finally got popular. But why don't thay sue digimon or blue dragon, and while their at it, howtotrain a dragon while their at it.

This whole thing is just weird.

A good about of drama and concern all around from the user perspective and lawmaker perspective regarding the kosa law. I don't think it's going to stop anytime soon.

If image font seems to small on Lemmy, try right clicking, and open in new tab.

They're looking to combine coppa and kosa? If this passes these changes could be interesting. But the changes being proposed could end up hurting the LGBTQ community. Any community being damaged, is not a good thing. Especially minorities.

Not sure how to fel about this, but if they are honest about the labels and accurate 100% of the time with labeling it's a nice feature for independant fact checkers

Yes, nonprofit doesn't mean unbiased. But, they do tend to report content in a public interest perspective, rather than a specific political leaning. Public interest may sometimes happen to lean a certain way. This is why I prefer them, you can atleast know that they'l report on some topics that people want to hear.

While a corporate news organization is going to report what *they want to report, based on their specific political leaning and/or their profit driving goals.

I heard of services like this that do this or similar I haven't;t actually checked one out long enough to see how well it works myself.

Not a bad source actually since, you're atleast getting mostly stories posted/shared by regular individuals and not a search engine algorithm throwing the same few sites all the time at you.

I use Lemmy as one of my secondary primary sources for news, while not my major, which happens to be a small handful of nonprofit ones. For tech news particularly, Lemmy users tend to do pretty good at sharing some good stories.

The Fediverse is still a new concept and it's gaining more usage then most other open source social medias. It's the best we have, and more and more people land on it. (atleast going by some Mastodon metrics.) It's not the biggest, but it's actually impressive for an an opensource project what you do have for it's userbase. I wish some people would understand that to an extent.

Anything to prevent getting my i.d in a database, i would actually be ok with using an ai to verify my age by my appearance if it really came down to it and I had to choose legally some form of age verification.

 

Do you Google search and click on whatever news sources come up or do you look into the news sources leanings, news reporting quality, and credibility? Maybe just if you can vibe with it or not in general?

Simplified

Do you save a list of specific news sites? Or do you just click on anything just to read that specific story on a search engine?

Me personally: I have a set list of sites I check. I know that they are credible and trust worthy to the public, being non profits and them having high standards to news reporting. (some of them include Npr, and Ap news) Most of their news stories are intended to benefit the public. Of course they aren't always perfect, but a solid choice, especially if you're starting out on picking a specific news source.

How about you all?

Some might have different tastes, but teenagers in a larger scale tend to not care about rules and will break them if they feel they're restricted. Depending on what it is, this could be things such as, getting out to some dance, or using social media without parental consent and faking age.

Meta's has been listening to some concerns after all especially now after some pressure.

These changes very well could help parents moderate their teens. Meta's head of product says these changes address particular 3 concerns in an Npr interview.

Will this be the end of the complaints and concerns geared towards Instagram, probably not.
