Took a glimpse at the article and it seems they could've gone uncaught for longer if they were a little more careful with the dates!

You're free to have your own opinions. But please note that your tone is not helpful and you may be just doing what exactly you're speaking against. Let's keep the discussions civil and healthy instead of labelling people.

Yes, I'm looking for more specific cases.

I am an atheist and I believe the world would be much better without religions. Having said that, I don't conisder it as a scam in itslef. Instead they must have been something evolved over the time due to our ignorance, fear and helplessness. The very same factors that still keep them going.

But hell yeah, people are exploited in the name of religion. I'm from India, one of the largest so called democracies, currently under the governance of a fascist hindutva party that thrives on polarizing people in the name of religion.

BTW I was actually looking for specific instances of scams carefully plotted by known people, companies or even countries instead of broad answers like religion.

I've heard that in such situations one can drop such docs, with address, in any postbox nearby and the postal worker will deliver them. I've never tried this myself & I don't know if people actually do that, but sounded like a good idea to me.

Anyway, I understand that the underlying issue is more important and finding any immediate solution alone won't help. It's much more important to spread awareness about the importance of privacy.

You're enjoying the benefits of federation, by having the ability to grow "your" community with people across the fediverse rather than with only the people on the same instance as yours. So that's the price you have to pay. Also, in the long run, communities will grow naturally based on the quality of the content and not just because they have popular names!

Is it crashing randomly? For me the crashes are somewhat reproducible. For eg. it crashes when I try to load comments of a post from notifications. It also crashes profile tab is selected from the bottom navbar, but I can live with it for now.

By the way, I'm on the latest version (v0.0.8). Please note that the app is still in beta, but the good news is that the dev is very active.

Sorry, I've been hearing about this for some time and I don't know the story behind it. Can someone please explain the enshittification that happened with digg? How good was it before and how bad was it after?

Infinity for Lemmy has this option. It's a fork of Lemmy for Reddit, modern and very customizable. It's still in alpha stage and is not on official f-droid repo yet (available on IzzyOnDroid f-droid repo), but still working great for me so far. Worth trying.
