Interesting solution 👍 Curious to see how this plays out!

Fair points. I’m warming up to the idea of making votes public so that people don’t have a false sense of privacy. I wish votes were actually private, but maybe it’s not a big deal if your account can’t be easily traced back to you in real life.

ActivityPub can’t evolve? Is there some insurmountable technical blocker?

I suspected this would be an issue and have avoided voting on controversial posts. But if everyone did as I do, there would be no open discussions about pressing topics.

It’s confusing enough understanding how federation works for the less technically inclined. I don’t think we should also expect them to figure out which instance is privacy-conscious. Privacy of votes should be baked into Lemmy. Even kbin users shouldn’t be able to see it.

If users want to advertise their approval/disapproval of posts they can use public comments in tandem with private votes.

It’s probably supposed to be a Godzilla-like creature.

Don’t give them ideas. If they had a reasonable number of ads, it wouldn’t be a problem, but they are absolutely out of control.

Simple questions with known answers might be a way to weed out malicious/untrustworthy responders.

The Gemini logo next to the word “Experiment” makes me suspicious.

Are they trying to train an AI?

Dual booting is also an option.

If the ad is short and subsidizes free wifi, I ain’t mad. But if the ad is unreasonably long, or if I have to keep watching ads every x minutes to use WiFi, it becomes a problem. Not sure what the case is here, but it should be spelled out on the screen so we know what we’re getting ourselves into.

Costs €5 but you can only play it once

Jokes aside, cool concept :)

I confronted someone for littering and with a completely sincere face they said they’re creating jobs for the people cleaning the streets 💫 so does that mean murderers are creating jobs for homicide detectives?

Isn’t chromium open source? How are the APIs a secret?

Amazing!! Thanks for sharing!

What if they kept the green color just to troll…

Maybe it used to belong to a falconer?
