  • Some of it is not googles fault. Some of it is the fact that seo pays, so shitty clickbait articles that serve ads or affiliate links make money, so they gameified search results that were less useful. Originally, most useful information was provided by hobbyists with no commercial intentions. That became less and less of the internet over time.

    It’s why reddit did so well. It was actual recommendations from actual humans for problems, products etc. So then the bots and scammers came for it’s like they came for google.















  • No, Ireland is excluded and would want to be. Northern Ireland, is included as part of the UK.

    Unless op meant northern Ireland would be upset? In which case they would probably be more annoyed at not being recognised as a country or entity themselves. Sure, some don’t want to be part of the UK, but they recognise the reality that they currently are and their country is called Northern Ireland. This map recognises that and seems inoffensive to Ireland (Republic of Ireland).





  • I interpreted differently. I assumed the thread was on blahaj but was not a meta thread about blahaj. However, you’re probably right.

    If they were on another instance and just had a disagreement with a blahaj user about the term, then I’d say that’s over moderation to block them unless they were being abusive, or a dick about it.

    I could also see how a mod could block him as a user and accidentally block him from the instance if it was a year ago as mod tools weren’t great. Although I don’t use them.

    However, as you say, depending on what the comments were, it could be the blahaj user was the one being the dick here.
