Who the fuck is EFF?
Economic Freedom Fighters? (Link doesn’t load for me)
Especial Furry Fuckers. It’s a big win for the fediverse!
Electronic Frontier Foundation
They also have a Mastodon account: @eff@mastodon.social
Where they get absolutely roasted for their stance on AI 😄
mastoholes at it again
Maybe, but their stance on AI does suck.
What is their stance on AI?
fork found in kitchen
Promoting it with…a Twitch stream.
A doctor must go where the sick people are.
A doctor cannot be in several places at once. That’s where your analogy falls apart.
It’s not an analogy, it’s a philosophy.
You’re missing the point…
Well, at least I’m not alone.
I couldn’t have been more clear…
Maybe your point isn’t the only one trying to be made.
Would you like to share with the class what point you’re trying to make?
E: this person still has not answered.
You cannot advertise the fediverse to people already on the fediverse. They are already using it.
You need to advertise to people who are on things like twitch, Facebook, X etc.
This stream is not for you, thus it is twitch specific.
May I ask that you start?
Can you explain to me why promoting the Feddiverse on Twitch is bad?
Promoting the Feddiverse on the Feediverse just seem like preaching to the choir.
You have to meet your audience where they are at. Twitch makes a lot of sense and has a lot of reach.
You can reach your audience from a variety of channels. At least one of them should be free. This should be seeringly obvious to an org like EFF.
Streaming from twitch? The Nazi Terrorist platform gross.
Perfect is the enemy of the good, aight?
Checking every single ethical box will leave you with an audience of 1,5 nerds. For EFF, this would be a massive failure on their mission.
EFF needs outreach, and Twitch provides it. Managing a political project is in a big way about pragmatism, and EFF maintains integrity where it matters.
Plus you can’t trust people to accurately decide which people are ethical or not. Look at Israel, their agents and allies mindfuck the left and right with abandon, and even leftists will fall for it, castigating and rejecting tens of millions of people because they are “right” pointing to groyper twat faces as charicatures of all of them, while doing the same to the left on the right, associating you alll with their charichatures.
don’t waste your money EFF this place sucks
Have you considered it’s not the space you hate but the people who occupy it? Try as hard as you may, you will not find a place for people to talk without finding people talking.
err yeah? it’s the people here who I don’t get along with because I have hobbies outside of American politics, I have no issues on reddit or whirlpool or other places
It can improve if you use the block button liberally, especially on mastodon
trust me I definitely use it, however fundamentally this is taking a place that has like 3 hobbies (American politics, Linux and Left Wing Progressive/American politics) and making it even smaller, this was supposed to be an alternative to reddit but it has like 7 active comms that aren’t somehow related to the above 3, even Lemmy Shitpost is filled with American/Left Wing Politics ALL the time
You’re going to say next: be the change you seek and I am however I am a drop in the American ocean
Im pretty active in cooking/gardening/gaming. Dont post much about politics, honestly cuz Im afraid of the surveilence state… so I avoid comment mostly in that topic and lurk. Seems okay to me, I dont often fight with anyone.
It’s what you make it. Post about your hobbies, remain positive, and youll get that back; Not only here, but it works this way in life mostly too. No one cares where youre from in the comm types I mentioned. Post youre aussie garden. My favorite garden video I ever saw was a fella from Australia. His garden was gorgeous and he was cool af.
why don’t you bring all your rightwing friends and make it the place you want it to be, this place sucks for you because it works with people actually doing things. You want work done for you, go back to reddit
Do you need to be rightwing to get annoyed by boring bland statements that get repeated over and over and over and over and over again that oversimplify and frame everything as the pure evil that cannot be convinced to change vs us
Even if you agree with them, do they not annoy you?
I don’t know what that means sorry, can you explain further?
A quick look at your profile shows you’re clearly in your zone here (American politics, Linux and Left Wing Progressive/American politics) so that’s good for you at least?
You might find that Piefed makes it easier to curate your feed. It has keyword filters which for me makes all the difference.
Yeah it looked great until the creator of it went on a mad dash banning everyone he didn’t like for wrongthink, not quite sure how your message came through to me I’m pretty sure I was banned for every ism under the sun
It’s especially ironic when I get called a right wing American when I detest America, the level of thought here is the most primitive I’ve ever seen on an internet forum “agree with me or you are nazi”
So here I sit, Lemmy has chased away all the normal people and left people like the above who say things like “why don’t you bring all your rightwing friends” when I don’t have rightwing friends, I have friends with hobbies outside of American politics, Linux and Left Wing Progressive/American politics, and if I dare complain about the lack of interesting content here it’s because I am lazy and not doing enough :\
What happened with the creator of piefed?
Then why are you here?
limited non-american spaces online + i ask myself the same thing every day
Stop using lemmy, use piefed or mbin. They have better filters. I have blocked anything and everything related to us politics and it’s been pretty good. Mastodon is filled with US people and their dumb topics though. It’s good I don’t like the way mastodon presents stuff because I find it impossible to navigate and follow discussions. Threads are way better
