I’m from germany. We recently went out for drinks with a researcher and a few students from the US. What I noticed about their communication was that it seemed a lot more … well, practiced maybe? Like they were working in retail and they got stuck in their “customer service voice” :P . Also a bit more focus on showmanship. Didn’t feel like you could get a genuine or personal answer out of them.
Just your run-of-the-mill friendly neighbourhood fox.

I think threads being able to make content that’s a threat to them invisible to their users by “unethically defederating” is exactly what the op is talking about. What they were likely referring to is this: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html
Doesn’t matter that users from other instances can still see threads content. It’s about threads accumulating the majority of users due to better infrastructure and then silencing smaller instances they deem a threat to them by defederating. It’s only been a few hours and they’ve crossed 30 million users.

Spytify works well. It works by recording the audio output of your pc while Spotify plays. It’ll produce audio files with all the song info filled in.
Can also detect and mute ads if you don’t have Spotify premium. If you do have it, you can also record with higher bitrate/quality.
