  • It seems like the most significant new feature is called anti-gravity which is kind of an allow list?

    We’ve had white lists for a long time so I’m not exactly sure how this will impact the system. That being said I read through the release notes and there are a lot of changes and improvements throughout the system, so congrats to them team on the 6 release.

    I’ve had pihole running on my home network for years and I love it.



  • My TikTok feed is full of content that I find interesting and educational, from creators who work hard to make something valuable.

    For them, banning TikTok means the work they put in to curating an audience will be partially lost, they’ll retain only the followers who find them on another app. If they are monetizing, they’ll potentially have to start over. That may discourage some who are just getting started from developing their craft.

    If china, bytedance, meta, or any other platform is collecting user data in such a way as to be a national threat they definitely need to cut it out and this should be regulated. For example, it should be impossible to identify the location of military generals based on where their wives access TikTok from, or who’s having an affair with who based on proximity to each other, or to develop a vast dataset of individually identifiable profiles of every user that could be used to selectively damage their character.

    Aside from these problems, which are potentially solvable, I think the individual creator/maker economy is an awesome way to give more power to the people.
