Where we're going we don't need facts
well lets see if the EU goes along with that change or if they even dare to roll it out here - twitter is already in hot water regarding the lack of moderation and rampant disinformation, adopting that trash model will not help at all.
i read on facebook that mark zuckerberg was a convicted paedophile. it must be true because there was no fact check.
The community note agrees.
Source: I wrote it.
There you have it folks.
“Community notes”
Provided by the same communities that post stuff about flat earth, mole children, and election fraud.
Community notes are an actually good feature of Twitter. It's a good thing they are copying it
why is that? genuine question, don't use twitter.
It's broad consensus that's featured there, so it manufactures consent less hard, and more importantly, the fact-check appears attaches to the original misinfo, so it gets reshared with it.
but broad consensus does not mean true.
to me this just sounds like social media passing the buck to their users with no regard for accuracy. sure, whatever you guys want to believe, go for it.
I think you and the person you're responding to both have a point. They're totally passing the buck to their users, but their users will probably be better at putting accurate information than they are. It's a different set of problems to be sure, but I think it's a preferable one

Crowd sourced fact checking so they don’t have to pay staff to do it.
Instead the "community" can brigade the "verification" and create an even louder echo chamber.
Indeed. People are going to have to work hard to constantly be tackling misinformation like on X.
However it does present an opportunity. Perhaps a taste of their own medicine…
Post misinformation about the CEOs and the like, like I’ve seen a few articles recently about Zucc having sexual issues. Community notes could say it’s true if there’s enough votes or submissions or whatever 🤣
Or like https://lemmy.world/post/24021828
If it’s about the CEOs we can digitally “luigi” them
Lemmy is also an echo chamber buddy

"Welp, the Last Election ever is over, time to rip off the bandaid."
Did we ever think Zuck was genuine with his UBI comments?
They didn't remove misinformation before anyway. After the hurricane devastated the Smokie mtns FB was full of idiots claiming fema was buying land for a private mining company, the storm was manmade, etc.
🤣it was manmade #climatechange
Keep trying...

They’re so close!
Cancer loves to metastasize
*meta-stasize
Fb guy went to see twitter guy, who is the US president, at an old diaper rapist's fake white house. Then FB guy publicly gave diaper rapist $1,000,000 in protection money and changed fb fundamentally to incorporate a prominent Twitter feature.
In before it's exposed that all the community notes are generated by AI accounts. It's like misinformation theatre.
If before I was born people invented fully cyborg replicants then hid the fact by programming the replicants to spread misinformation about their existence, I wouldn't even be surprised at this point.
Biggest flaw to this would be:
I get why youd keep the sex slaves around. I'd maybe get why you keep around the beautiful people. Smart people, physically fit people, talented people, etc. But why the fuck haven't I been culled yet? The only reasonable answer might be I'm in some fucked up Truman show, but man, these ancients taste in reality TV is fucking stupid. I'd even say genetic diversity, maybe, but I'm childless and I'm not getting younger.
That is pretty flawless reasoning, so it's definitely real and not a Truman show at all.
The ongoing prostration to Trump continues...
Received his order for this at Mar-a-Lago no doubt

So for the . . what seems like hundredth year in a row - anyone who's using Facepals and Xitter please delete it. please. Just. Stop.
almost all boomers at this point.
This is a full announcement, sounds like they're going on a full Twitter way
The original post has 1.5k likes and 2k replies so obv not everyone are happy about Twitter alternative just turning into Twitter
Lmao how does moving the content moderation team from CA to TX remove bias.
It removes potential liberal bias and replaces it with bigotry.
Anything not liberal = bigotry. This platform is just as bad of an echo chamber as Twitter lol
Hating someone because they’re born different or live their lives different = bigotry. Hating that people are removing the rights of people is not bigotry. Facts are not opinions.
It removes better wages due to the higher CoL and corporate tax rate in CA and therefore removes bias, obviously. /s
Considering Texas's major tech hub including FB offices are based in Austin idk what bias they think they're eliminating
