No Channel Channel.

Why the fuck is @fireflyapp defaulting to deliver fascist bullshit to my push notifications? It is laughably categorized as “news” 

Methinks I smell a bizarre tone deaf conservative agenda. Thin ice, my dudes. 

Context: I’ve never belonged to any party. They’re all snakes. I don’t care who is sending me propaganda. It’s equally bullshit, and I question anyone who believes a party can comprehensively represent their beliefs. Fire the management.

These are my principles. If you don't like them, well, I have others

firefly team is anything but conservative and do give them another run. 

firefly team is experimenting and trying to engage real users. they just recently added blue sky (on desktop). so they are like the democrat version of truth social, and firefly is serving both channels. 

they will keep adding more. nostr is kinda psycho and i bet they add it too. hopefully mastodon soon.

💯 agree w you re default-on; choice made for you; and agenda weirdness. so, a)

re b)
i’m hypothesizing all this and have never talked ab this w them. i think most likely they didn’t think of the consequences, or see it from that perspective. my opinion tho is water cooler talk only on this
subject. if you asked them my guess is they would discuss it in a good way

Any time I’m not given a choice on a subject (unless innocuous) I’m very concerned that it means either a) they have an agenda or b) they have no one advising on Product. 

To pipe Trump in automatically as news is mislabeled at best, and for that matter may as well be The Onion. 
This is a questionable product development decision. It offers zero value. 

But I get it. People build stuff and do their best. But if a feature exists, tell people and let them decide to opt in.

chinese team.

firefly is part of mask network umbrella, which has other consumer products. at bradgao  if u want to tag 

mask networks ~ mask ventures, and led by suji, a longtime OG investor (consumer, and social) and product innovator (mask extension). at suji if you want to tag 

my position is: if firefly had truth social on by default this is anti pattern. firefly is adding social networks where it sees users, that’s the agenda. they added blue sky, lens, farcaster, X, and will add more. 

 firefly ~ a social buffer, hootsuite

Are they US based?
What was the logic behind this and the decision to default to on rather than opt in? (Genuinely curious if you know)
