Well, I disagree with you.
but other thanthe anxiety there are no ill effects.
Anxiety, for some of us, is a bad thing in itself and not a negligible side effect. It may not be for you. And consequently I would not have advised you to stop googling medical problems.
But I felt that OP’s anxiety was not helped by excessive googling. And it was in this spirit that I advised OP against it.
If you have a general practitioner that you go to for your normal illnesses, start there. If the ER doc didn’t tell you to make an appointment with a specialist, maybe start smaller.
Stop googling. You didn’t study this stuff. And my guess is it won’t help with anxiety either.
They’re trying to say you bought a phone with bad software. You may want to contact the company to see if they can help you. I’m saying that because my guess is not many people have your phone and will read this and can then help you.
There are countries in Europe that use a broadcast system and not SMS to send emergency alerts. Depends on your location. I’m guessing that with growing environmental catastrophes and the military threat from the East a lot more will be done with these kinds of alerts in the future.
One of them doesn’t listen at all. He’s also dead so I’m willing to overlook his blatant lack of enthusiasm.
“In the long run” does a lot of the heavy lifting there. We’ve gone from indiscriminately giving our data away 25 years ago, to having a sizable chunk of people like you and me who are aware of the data siphoning and take steps to curb the flow today. In another 25 years, I think users’ mindsets will have changed enough for my prediction to have a chance in hell of becoming true. I hope to see the day.
This question is nonsensical. Let’s say Amazon leaves the EU. What does that have to do with the Fediverse? If all US social media companies left, people will find other forums to engage in. This could be the Fediverse, could be something else that hasn’t been created yet.
In the long run, I think we will all end up on a version of federated social media. The corporate silos will lose their appeal, regardless of where they’re based. Whether this future federated service will be based on Activity Pub or AT or whatever protocol no one knows right now.
I appreciate your effort to keep senseless loss of lives in mind here. I don’t think it will work. They don’t want to be US citizens. And the way the Trump economy is going to shape out, 1 million dollars may not be worth that much soon.
My review came with an asterisk. I mainly wanted to point out how to get it free so you can make up your own mind.
I don’t remember if I bought it on Google Play so I don’t know if you would need to. You can though test drive it guaranteed for free if you sideload the F-Droid app store and get it from there.
I stopped using it about two years ago because it felt it took forever loading feeds and switched to Tusky, which has less functionality (e.g. no post scheduling) but loads faster, I think, and works well for my limited needs. Fedilab’s menus never put me off. But I never went back.
So that’s a review that needs a pinch of salt or two.
Ultimately, this is not about what capital M Mastodon allows but what the instance the bot is on allows. I just read through the guidelines of what mastodon.bot allows (because it came up in my search) and I think you could get away with that there. A stream is ultimately promoting its creator, i.e. a person, so you might run afoul of that restriction in their rules. I’m not sure. And as I said, it would depend more on the instance the bot is on.
In general, I would support allowing this.
