        I really hate and avoid when my phone switches into battery saver at 15%, so in my mind 16% is like 1%

            Just as important. And most phones these days have a setting to prevent it from charging to 100%. E.g. I set mine to stop at 90%.

            For lithium batteries (phone batteries) it’s actually more important than draining to 0. Many studies indicate that the average phone battery should last several thousand cycles while only losing 5-10% of total capacity provided it is never charged above 80%. Minimum % (even down to 0%) and charge rate below 70% is also unrestricted.

            The tl;dr is that everytime you charge to 100% is the same as 50-100 charges to 80%. Draining a lithium chemistry battery to 0 isn’t an issue as long as you don’t leave it in a discharged state (immediately charging).

      Here’s a hot tip. If you’re on android, open the developer settings and turn on “demo mode” before taking screenshots. It makes the battery and signal display as 100% so you don’t get judged by internet commenters who don’t go outside.

    I reported loads of content on Instagram, genuinely creepy accounts of “athletic teens” and they all got rejected.

    I got caught in a horrible recommendations loop because I’d like family photos of running and gymnastics for my nieces and cousins.

    One the biggest problems with the internet today is bad actors know how to manipulate or dodge the content moderation to avoid punitive consequences. The big social platforms are moderated by the most naive people in the world. It’s either that or willful negligence. Has to be. There’s just no way these tech bros who spent their lives deep in internet culture are so clueless about how to content moderate.

      I know them. I worked in this industry. They’re not naive. What basis do you have for these comments?

      I think you’re conflating with business executives running said social and gaming companies. Stop calling them techbros. Meta is not a tech startup. They’re a transnational corporation. They have capitalist execs running the companies.
