@[email protected] @knightlie @thelinuxEXP Sorry, but you’re completely wrong. It does matter that some people criticize someone just because they’re a woman. They’re not criticizing Mozilla, or Firefox. That’s not the conversation they’re having. That’s what they SHOULD do, but that’s not what they’re doing.

You’re the one bringing that into the conversation, it’s not what my post was about.

The amount of misogynistic comments on my latest video is just off the charts.

You can doubt the new CEO for her skills, her vision, experience, or the companies she worked at. But saying « another woman CEO, Mozilla is dead Â» is just
 wow.

It’s 2024, people. Seriously. WTF.

Meta is downranking/hiding political content on Threads. The company says Threads will “not recommend any content/accounts that post about politics.”

Here’s the issue: what counts as “politics” is often any news abt people who have had their whole existence politicized, such as news about Black people, LGBTQ people, disabled ppl, women, etc. Climate scientists, public health experts etc also considered “political” https://www.axios.com/2024/02/09/meta-political-content-moderation-threads

First look: Meta won't recommend political content on Threads

Meta is laying out the details of its policy.
