UpScrolled already having questionable ethics

Which questionable ethics? I’m out of the loop.

I’ve seen other people on Mastodon/Bluesky mention that the site takes an ‘anti-censorship’ approach to moderation, so there’s a bunch of far right people doing Nazi stuff on there.

That mixed with not having an algorithm, I’ve seen a lot of sexual stuff I was not looking for.

Is not that a part of the advantage? You, the person; deciding what you want to see and follow. I think Mastodon and BlueSky are similar in that regard.

I’ve seen a lot of sexual stuff I was not looking for.

Follow the developer of the app and you’ll understand why;

as you may already know, many bad actors are trying to flood the platform with all kinds of illegal and nasty content, for the obvious reasons. we are working around the clock to counter this. it will get better. we apologize for any disgusting content you may encounter while we fix this.

I’m fine with not having an algorithm I just don’t feel the need to see some ladies twat unless I’m looking for that content specifically. I’m not saying the platform is bad, just it needs some work still.

Then why even mentioning it (in a more negative than neutral tone)?

I just don’t feel the need to see some ladies twat unless I’m looking for that content specifically. I’m not saying the platform is bad, just it needs some work still.

Whether you use the platform or not, does not really matter (to me). You are right the platform needs some work and they’re putting the work while being one of social media platform that’s being targeted by Zionists.

I have written what, I wanted to write. I have shown the text and image the developer wrote. That’s about it. I’ll leave it at that, I guess.

I mentioned the algorithm BECAUSE that’s why I saw sexual content. No algorithm means when I was scrolling the discover page, I was just getting the most recently uploaded content therefore, sexual content. To be fair, when I first signed up for TikTok back in the day that’s what the algorithm tried to shove at me as well.

I have been on UpScrolled for about 23-25 days and have not seen any Nazi stuff. However, I keep my feed and the people I follow mainly about Anime and Palestine.

If there’s indeed Nazi stuff on it, I hope the developer removes it. Zionism and Nazi are both insanely shit ideologies that should have never come to existence.

I don’t know what upscrolled is, but if it’s not federated then who cares?

You care enough to write about the specific app that, you don’t know about.

Your account is 4 days old, that says enough. I won’t respond to you after this comment.

Alright, shill.

yeah I’m not sure Upscrolled is going to be an improvement over Tik Tok in the long run in any way. Not open source or federated, probably will be even easier for Trump-supporting billionaires to buy it than TT for example.

There is absolutely no ethical consumption under capitalism.
