Image description: Elon Musk & X @elonmusk β€’ 42m Just bought a new PC laptop and it won't let me use it unless I create a Microsoft account, which also means giving their Al access to my computer! This is messed up. There used to be an option to skip signing into or creating a Microsoft account. Are you seeing this too? This is not cool of Microsoft.

That would be more interesting than whatever shit he regularly pours from his fingers.

And yet, if Lemmy didn't fall all over themselves to post every single negative thing even vaguely related to him, I'd never have to hear about Musk. Maybe I should finally start using keyword filters for Lemmy.

The mobile apps I use have a post filter setting that lets me block keywords present in a post title. Unfortunately, I don’t think this is a feature of Lemmy, but the apps themselves. I would love to be wrong about that, but as far as I can tell the Lemmy web UIs don’t seem to offer the feature.

edit: I use Eternity and Boost. Neither is perfect, so I switch back and forth.
