@internetarchive The login option seems to be back, but I noticed that changes to account settings are still not saved permanently—they’re either reset after revisiting or end with an error message.

Please take your time, but ensure security is solid and watertight. Thanks!

Evidence: People were randomly assigned to unfollow accounts that spewed hostility, hyperpartisan views, and low-quality information.

6 months later, they had significantly higher well-being and lower outgroup animosity.

This was a very uncomfortable breach to process for reasons that should be obvious from @josephfcox's article. Let me add some more "colour" based on what I found:

Beautiful late winter day, warm enough to sit outside and enjoy a piece of cherry crumble cake with whipped cream (Kirsch-Streuselkuchen mit Schlagsahne) and a coffee. PS: it was hard-earned; I had to move and spread five m³ of mulch. 🙂

"They would be willing to do it for *just* billions."
