It's wild how social media outside of the fediverse has deteriorated. You have followers, but if your post doesn't please some opaque algorithm, they'll never see what you post. You have to avoid certain words to please the algorithm. If you refresh the page good luck finding the same posts again. And people put up with it.

The Washington Post · Don’t say ‘vote’: How Instagram hides your political postsBy Geoffrey A. Fowler

@Gargron I find it amazing also on YouTube. I watch some people that monitor the current war situations in ukraine and the middle east and they can't use the words "kill" or even "terrorist", "hamas", "hezbollah" and more without at least getting demonitized or blocked. It is complete bonkers and only going to get worse with every state in the world now taking shots at forbidding unwanted things

@DJGummikuh @Gargron Then they should do it like Louis Rossmann. He publishes videos, that are blocked on YouTube, on Odysee. Or better, upload all videos on multiple platforms and inform the followers about it. If they want a change, they have to do something for it. Complaining and waiting for a miracle won't help.

@Kubiac @Gargron I wasn't searching for a solution to the issue, just wanted to point out how broken and radically censored the Internet has become

@DJGummikuh @Kubiac @Gargron Well, Mastodon are very very pro censorship though.

@Apan @Kubiac @Gargron speak for yourself, I have used all the words that youtube prohibits just now and have yet to find a term I cannot use

@Kubiac @DJGummikuh @Gargron He's a seriously problematic person. His funding comes from cryptonazis.
