Yes. Countries where the observable reality aligns closer with the official message. The more divergence, the higher the importance of the official message to be heard and uncontradicted, in order to maintain the shared reality within the country. The closer the message to what people see and feel around them, the less important the message is.

For example, in a country where people make ends meet with great difficulty it would take persistent message that the economy is doing well to convince them in that. People can see that it’s difficult to make ends meet. If the official message stops contradicting that reality, the reality will become more apparent. In contrast in a country where people have high disposable income and the official message on the economy is that things are doing well, the two align. If the official message stops, the reality keeps being the same, people keep noticing that they’re doing well. And so the official message wouldn’t significantly affect the shared reality among the people of that country. Therefore it isn’t as important. Reality speaks for itself if you will.

Have you made an effort?

So the way to truly delete ones content is to mass edit and replace with “fuck spez”?

This guy risk-rewards.

No that’s just still Musk level.

Testing.

Yes.

Sure. However not everyone can make everything so if you have to buy something and if that’s got a backdoor in it, it’s probably preferable to be from an allied country. It’s all about risk mitigation.

If you were the Chinese military you probably wouldn’t like American backdoors in your gear. The American military probably feels similarly.

80/20, Lemmy/Reddit.

Trending to 100/0.

Commies over Nazis every time.

It’s a planned feature if I’m not mistaken.

Great, so it’s reproducible and Lemmy-the-app related, not instance-specific. Should be fixable across the board once it’s identified and resolved.

It’s known in the industry as the throw-hardware-at-it optimization. It’s often effective and what’s needed to buy time for software optimization to come in.

Does this behaviour appear on other big instances? E.g. lemmy.ml?
