  • I have an app where I register when I take my meds, and which meds.

    I make sure to absolutely always tap the app while taking the meds. No taking meds and then going to find the phone, or tapping the app and then take the meds. Always do it simoultaniously.

    With that rule in place, I know that I can 100% trust the app in telling me if I have taken them or not.

    This works really great for me.






  • This is one of the most interesting and fundemental discussions happening. Meta absolutely depends on being able to deliver targted ads towards users, it is a must for that business model.

    So in the end it seems fair to ask users either to pay for the service costs, or accept the directed advertising.

    What is even more interesting is what other ways this could work? How can a platform - in general, not just meta - provide a “free” service, without monetizing it with targeted advertising?

    Are we going to have to get all users to pay for every little service we use? Are we willing to do that to avoid advertising? To avoiding targeting?

    This outcome of this will be a lot more important than most people realise.
