@NicolasConstant Thank you Nicolas 🙇
@Gargron Nah, it's the trojan horse into Slack. That's what it is. Once they own Giphy, they pretty much own Slack.
@Gargron I think they should have charged FB $10 Billion for giphy
@Gargron Giphy also gets paid to inject "branded gif"/ads into their search... 🤮
@Gargron imagine being able to buy insight into people's vocabulary
Facebook reduced vocab through ux first to "like" then to a limited set of reactions, now it will observe expression selection in real-time
@xurizaemon @Gargron turns out Facebook really just wants to make an extremely accurate model of human cognition based on our (inherently failed) efforts at communication
Wouldn't doubt it
Data is king not cash 🤫
@Gargron provably about registrering emotions / feelings expressed through gifs.
@Gargron Can't be more redundant data on their system by now.
@Gargron apparently not on Signal: https://twitter.com/signalapp/status/1261364662840385536?s=20
They've spent time and effort to avoid exactly what you describe.
@Gargron fuck them: download gifs before publishing them and use pixelfed.Voilà.
@Gargron Facebook’s Giphy acquisition sounds antitrust alarms in Congress
@Gargron They're buying visibility into slack and signal.
@Gargron (and whatever else it integrates with but yeah).
