@AlisonCreekside Some of the largest "Canadian" social media accounts are trashy aggregators like 6ixbuzz and Narcity which constantly post ragebait, and are full to the brim with hateful comments ("engagement"). Looking at the advisory board for this startup, I don't see how they wouldn't bow to the same VC-driven "growth" motives as exist in the US, and push those kinds of channels to the forefront of their algorithm.
Simone S"This isnāt accidental. Itās cultural. Weāve created an industry where complexity is celebrated. Where cleverness is rewarded. Where engineering sophistication is valued more than clarity, usability, or commercial effectiveness."
From the same article: "Accessibility? Maybe, if there is time."
There NEVER is time. The industry is now a travesty, and it ruined everything around it.

@jimniels Nice article, and I will check out the talk. I have some bad news though: the Ling's Cars website was updated and as you might have guessed, it looks like every other car site now.

@seanb In the spirit of freeing the feed, would you mind posting the link to the original article instead of an Apple News link?

yoasif@[email protected] The #firefox #reddit #ama happened a while ago, but if you missed it, I wrote up an overview of what was discussed.
Shares are appreciated, especially since Reddit is its own island and it would be nice to get this shared across the #fediverse as well!
@shoq @scien This is unfortunately smoke and mirrors. DDG pings Bing to serve a LOT of its search results, and 100% of its ads. As recently as 2022, they admitted that their browser apps had an exception for Microsoft trackers, while blocking Google/FB trackers. While this does not apply to web search, this is playing whack-a-mole as conditions of their MS contract are NDA'd. They'd be more trustworthy if they had their own search index and ad product. https://techcrunch.com/2022/05/24/ddg-microsoft-tracking-blocking-limit/
