This reminds me of those tabloids you use to see out grocery shopping back in the day.

They always had crazy headlines and front page images.

Ironically. Boomers knew this stuff was fake BITD but are now the most fooled by the fake news especially on Facebook.

i hope the internet will move away from these giant sites

sites like digg/reddit killed small self hosted forums

i hope that eventually the mainstream internet is so clogged with shyt that people will go back to making their own sites

yall know you can host your own websites,right?

if youre on windows check out the XAMPP bundle. since youre using a home connection you'll need to open a port in your router, but you can buy a domain and point it to your own IP and host your own site. you'll just need to append the port number, ie "www.colibreh.com:81" and so on

we the people need to take the internet back
I would not recommend hosting your own site on your home internet. Better to pay $10 or so a month and have a small cloud server set up with something like DigitalOcean.com

There is a whole subgenre of AI videos where they say a celebrity has died.

Another one where AI makes up crime stories with generated pictures.

The guy who runs that is making bank off this nonsense
YOOOOOOOOO This shyt is mad annoying!!!



And some of them are generating hundreds of thousands of views!!


Like, ppl are making real money doing this shyt! And it’s all fake/lies.


It’s insane.

I don’t see this stuff when I’m on my YT app, but if I’m let’s say on here and there’s a YT link, when it opens in safari, damn near all the suggested videos beneath it are this junk.

I cannot believe this mess is allowed.

I've also seen it where they'll post a fake screenshot about a real death smh.

Like a breh I went to school passed away a couple years back, he committed suicide and had CTE but one of those accounts made a video screengrab of a car accident

i guess if youre not willing to be vigilant that would be the case

i had hella chinese/russian hackers trying to crack my ssh password. i eventually went keyless lmao. it stopped

but yes, if you grep your logs on a home server its a CONSTANT war. china really wants to take over my jellyfin server, for some reason!
