Repetition. The front page algorithm frequently shows way too many posts from a single community, often in a row. It also tends to show me a lot of duplicated posts that have been reposted to multiple communities.

There needs to be a better mix in the way posts are selected. Popular communities should not be able to dominate the listing with multiple posts. The more posts they get to the front page, the more they should be down-weighted in order to give an equitable mix.

This complaint applies to All, Local, and Subscribed. If you don’t want to change the default algorithm, then perhaps add the new one as an option?

This article is in the Guardian, a British newspaper. Whatever it’s trying to do, Canadians can’t do much about it.

You must’ve missed the part where Lina Khan built her entire career and reputation on an article she wrote for the Yale Law Journal as a law student arguing that Amazon should be split into separate companies and prevented from re-integrating.

She is considered a radical within the antitrust law world. She is vigorously opposed to vertically integrated monopolies of which Amazon is a star example. This case against Amazon is basically the final boss of her career and her legal movement, the New Brandeis Movement.

Big tech started before the 70s. IBM was founded in 1911. Hewlett-Packard in 1939. The 60s and 70s were when computers as a business tool (mainframes) really took off.

Land is scarce. Trust in society and institutions is plummeting. If you tried to take away land ownership you’d face a violent revolution. Is there any way you can think of to preserve land ownership while making housing “no longer an investment?”

How much of the great decoupling is just due to big tech and the investment landscape around it?
