I think she really amplified all of the rumors more than almost anyone. And it all happened on Twitter, so let's drag the entire site into it. |

Rowling's definition of a woman now seems to exclude strong biological females too.

Is anything on any social media even real anymore?
Checked Reddit's front page today and nearly every major story is connected to an account that seems to be a bot, filled with comments that also seem to be bots. These bots seem to be posting stories just to anger people with particular views.
It's more or less the same thing on Twitter.
Weird that message boards seem to be the last real place for internet dialogue, when they were more or less abandoned a few years ago.

My usual checking is r/SquaredCircle and r/indiewrestling. I normally check/visit other subreddits to ask a question whenever I have one. I think most people ditched forums in favour of Discords though I have heard some prefer forums due to being better organised. |

Individual subreddits are fine as long as they have active mod staffs that also don't let their power get to their heads. I can't remember the last time I actually looked at Reddit's front page.

Reddit has a front page? I've genuinely never visited it – I signed up directly from a subreddit and bookmarked my feed rather than the main page. |

Reddit has a front page? I've genuinely never visited it – I signed up directly from a subreddit and bookmarked my feed rather than the main page. I used to have an app that curated my Reddit timeline, but reddit went out of their way to kill all those apps. The best part about reddit is generally the small niche communities. I used to use Reddit a lot for local community stuff, but live in a big city and the entire subreddit for my city is just filled with crap. There used to be so many fun meetups organized on community reddits. Found some local craft beer friends there, pub owners and IWC members who would show PPV's at their establishments. Now due to an overzealous mod and bots, you can't even do that anymore. |

I'm suddenly running into an issue on Reddit myself where somehow they think I'm evading a ban on another account I don't have and they won't let me post in a sub I hang out in all the time anymore. So yeah, the Internet as a whole is just a shitheap these days.

With a melt and a swirl, It would dance and it’d twirl, And say, "I’m the best cheese for you!" |

The internet in general just needs so much effort these days to be useful. If you're on social media, you need to heavily curate your feeds to block/mute bots and the crap the sites are pushing on you. If you Google Search, you need to do another search just to make sure your initial results are factual.
The more AI and algorithms are pushed to make the internet easier, the more they make it worse.

I'm genuinely curious because I have no idea if this is just the platform acting crazy or something. |

My best guess is since I just got a refurbished computer it's somehow causing me to show up as some other person's account or something, who the hell knows. |

So yeah, the Internet as a whole is just a shitheap these days. either someone used your ip adress to cause shit there or if you use a vpn you've hit on an ip adress that's caused issues in the past or your internet provider has bounced you to one. it's happened here where people (myself included) have received the "you have been banned from this message board" page despite never getting to that point. |

I remember ages ago that when I was in college, I got caught in an IP ban here on my dorm computer. Went home for the weekend like a couple of hours later and everything was fine on my home computer. Was weird lol. |

The VPN thing happened to me. I post like twice a year, but am always on a VPN. I somehow got shadow banned, but anything that gets me to use that site less is not really a punishment. |
