  • I’m just going to add that the web ui on mobile is great. Good enough that I’ve stopped using mlem. Mlem doesn’t show you the different instances that users and communities are coming from which doesn’t really matter for users but is super annoying for communities, and the main dev said that’s intentional. It also shows you your “karma”, through what I’m assuming is just adding up the raw up/downvotes your posts/comments have accrued. Seeing that is what ultimately made me bounce, it seems like the complete antithesis of what Lemmy is trying to be about.

    Also, while they’re working on adding a NSFW blur, it doesn’t exist yet and fuck seeing all that loli ai porn on my feed. I don’t mind having to scroll past stuff I’m not interested in, but fuck me at least blur it.



  • I’m not 100% sure on the answer to that.

    Twitter relies on Google Cloud to host services…

    So I’m assuming that means that Twitter is either using GCP to host cloud-based internally developed services, or SaaS deployments in the cloud, but that’s just a complete guess on my part.> n Musk’s takeover. Since “at least” March, Twitter has been pushing to renegotiate the contract

    Edit - This section was in the next paragraph lol.

    Now, Platformer has reported that a Twitter service called Smyte—an automated anti-abuse and anti-harassment tool that was previously operating on Google Cloud Platform (GCP)—will potentially shut down on June 30. This could lead to a flood of spam bots and CSAM on Twitter as bots and content could fail to be removed.

    So it sounds like it’s an internally built Twitter service that they host in GCP.
