Exactly. They “crawl” category/tag lists, etc. and follow links. And if there are no links to those pages, they wont be indexed.
(Depending on some settings. For all I know they’ve set up “hidden redirects” for popular crawlers to pages that show them)
edit: right, respective tags list no porn games anymore.
Which could cause them to no longer be indexed by search engines depending on other settings. So you’d need to find direct links from other websites.
Deindexed/delisted, not removed.
Try putting the names into the search field on the site, or browsing for them in the categories they are in.
Yeah, I’ve had a fiber cable running all the way into my apartment for over a decade, and directly into my router for years.
Yeah, for some reason they’ve seemed to made it harder to find the actual start menu settings instead of more generic taskbar settings. So that’s a fair point.
Windows has this “feature”, where is the setting?
I assume youre talking about W11?
Because the “Show recently added apps” setting is third option in the start menu settings on W10.
While you’re right to be skeptical, if they just wanted to collect data they would have an Android version. And their stated reason for not supporting it, is that push notifications on Android would require them to at store device-IDs, which they want to avoid for privacy reasons and being vulnerable to subpoenas.
Indeed, the vast majority on any social media platform does not engage. And when they do it’s mostly just liking content and not even replying. You see it on lemmy as well, with news articles often having few comments. And when they do it’s one or two top comments and a bunch of replies.
Over the years the only thing I can imagine is to add another anonymizing layer, where people can send in questions and the “best ones” are posted by a general/bot account. But that is something people much smarter than me have tried to figure out for years, so I have no idea how it would be implemented.
Is there a way to encourage people to post more? Because the main problem seems to be getting actual posts, not replies to them.
For example “nostupidquestions” only has a few questions a day, but there are 40k subscribers and 1500 people or so checking in every day. It has 4.2k posts and 170k comments.
“asklemmy” has more posts, fewers subscribers, and over 2k a day check in. 6k posts and 317k comments.
Yeah, the amount of industrial machinery being controlled by ancient hardware would baffle a lot of people.
For a comparison people might relate to: There are ATMs running twenty year old versions of Windows XP.
The same way they always do: “WONT SOMEBODY THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!?!1111”
