i read on facebook that mark zuckerberg was a convicted paedophile. it must be true because there was no fact check.
The community note agrees.
Source: I wrote it.
There you have it folks.
“Welp, the Last Election ever is over, time to rip off the bandaid.”
“Community notes”
Provided by the same communities that post stuff about flat earth, mole children, and election fraud.
The ongoing prostration to Trump continues…
Received his order for this at Mar-a-Lago no doubt
Why are you obsessed with my little pony?
Fb guy went to see twitter guy, who is the US president, at an old diaper rapist’s fake white house. Then FB guy publicly gave diaper rapist $1,000,000 in protection money and changed fb fundamentally to incorporate a prominent Twitter feature.
Community notes are an actually good feature of Twitter. It’s a good thing they are copying it
why is that? genuine question, don’t use twitter.
Crowd sourced fact checking so they don’t have to pay staff to do it.
Instead the “community” can brigade the “verification” and create an even louder echo chamber.
Lemmy is also an echo chamber buddy
It’s broad consensus that’s featured there, so it manufactures consent less hard, and more importantly, the fact-check appears attaches to the original misinfo, so it gets reshared with it.
but broad consensus does not mean true.
to me this just sounds like social media passing the buck to their users with no regard for accuracy. sure, whatever you guys want to believe, go for it.
I think you and the person you’re responding to both have a point. They’re totally passing the buck to their users, but their users will probably be better at putting accurate information than they are. It’s a different set of problems to be sure, but I think it’s a preferable one
but their users will probably be better at putting accurate information than they are.
“they” (Meta) was not the one fact-checking, it was a 3rd party service. And I don’t know why you assume a social media user base would be better at it, especially with highly politicized things like climate change, vaccines, wars, etc.
They think that because community notes are actually fairly good on Twitter. You’d think that they wouldn’t be, but somehow the extremist idiots don’t seem to be able to outshout the sensible majority.
Just go on YouTube and search for community notes.
“fairly good” or not, the question is, is it better than a 3rd party service like the one Meta was using.
They didn’t remove misinformation before anyway. After the hurricane devastated the Smokie mtns FB was full of idiots claiming fema was buying land for a private mining company, the storm was manmade, etc.
🤣it was manmade #climatechange

This is a full announcement, sounds like they’re going on a full Twitter way
The original post has 1.5k likes and 2k replies so obv not everyone are happy about Twitter alternative just turning into Twitter
Lmao how does moving the content moderation team from CA to TX remove bias.
It removes better wages due to the higher CoL and corporate tax rate in CA and therefore removes bias, obviously. /s
It removes potential liberal bias and replaces it with bigotry.
Anything not liberal = bigotry. This platform is just as bad of an echo chamber as Twitter lol
Hating someone because they’re born different or live their lives different = bigotry. Hating that people are removing the rights of people is not bigotry. Facts are not opinions.
