In August 2018, aged 15, Thunberg began skipping school, vowing to remain out of school until after a Swedish election to attempt to influence the outcome. She protested outside the Swedish parliament where she called for stronger action on climate change by holding up a Skolstrejk för klimatet (School Strike for Climate) sign and handing out informational flyers.[7] After the election, Thunberg spoke in front of supporters, telling them to use phones to film her. She then said she would continue school striking for the climate every Friday until Sweden was in compliance with the Paris climate agreement.[8] Thunberg's youth and blunt speaking manner fueled her rise to the status of a global icon.[9]

After Thunberg's first school strike for the climate, other students engaged in similar protests. They united and organized the school strike for climate movement. After Thunberg addressed the 2018 United Nations Climate Change Conference, weekly climate strike protests took place on Fridays around the world. In 2019, coordinated multi-city protests involved over a million students each.[10] To avoid carbon-intensive flying, Thunberg sailed on a carbon-free yacht from England to New York where she addressed the 2019 UN Climate Action Summit.[11] In her speech, Thunberg scolded the world's leaders by exclaiming "How dare you" in reference to their perceived indifference and inaction to the climate crisis. Her admonishment made worldwide headlines.[12]

You're clearly a troll with nothing better to do than "just ask questions" https://youtu.be/elRxbGJuCw8 but for the benefit of others, click on the Wikipedia link above and read for yourself who Greta is and why she's famous.

It isn't a Lemmy problem, I assure you. It's a general population problem.

Does anyone know an easy way to download this video? Voyager has a handy download button for embedded videos but I don't see anything like that for the Streamable website

I'm collecting videos of police brutality to help convince more politically neutral/ambivalent friends of what's going on.

Can't watch without installing the Reddit app 👎

Cowards.

To be honest, I've no idea. All I know is the BBC can't be trusted.

I've not heard anything bad about Reuters and as they're the journalists' journalists then they're probably alright, but I don't really know.

Drop Site News spoke to 13 current and former staffers who mapped out the extensive bias in the BBC’s coverage and how their demands for change have been largely met with silence from management. At times, these journalists point out, the coverage has been more credulous about Israeli claims than the UK’s own Conservative leaders and the Israeli media, while devaluing Palestinian life, ignoring atrocities, and creating a false equivalence in an entirely unbalanced conflict.

In November, the journalists’ outrage at the Corporation’s overall coverage spilled out into the open after more than 100 BBC employees signed a letter accusing the organization, along with other broadcasters, of failing to adhere to its own editorial standards. The BBC lacked “consistently fair and accurate evidence-based journalism in its coverage of Gaza” across its platforms, they wrote.

The BBC are a captured organisation.

Drop Site News are new to me, I have no idea of their credibility. But Owen Jones (the journalist who wrote this) is a famous journalist who regularly writes for The Guardian.

It looks like you've made 61 posts in the last 24 hours. That's a lot of content to provide!

If you're enjoying it, then there's no harm in carrying on. Well done, thank you!

But if you're not enjoying it, then slow down. Stop posting or just post less frequently, whatever it takes to feel like you're doing something you find worth doing. Otherwise, what's the point?

But to your original questions, I don't think you're wasting your time and posting is definitely useful for the Fediverse ecosystem.

Frustrated, modern (whatever that means in this context), professional, and yet, still willing to point a gun at peaceful civilian protestors.

The jackboot is coming down on your head, but at least it's polished, neatly tied, and only coming down hard enough to knock you out, not kill you.

Boost is closed source, defeating half the point of using the Fediverse in the first place. And has adverts. It's very intuitive to use, granted, I used it myself for a while, but have since transitioned to Voyager and after disabling the weird gestures controls I'm happier on this app, would recommend.

Unfortunately it does save posts in date posted order as you've said, however there's no reason you couldn't ask the devs to add a sort order feature. That's the beauty of small open source projects!

This page has a list of Lemmy apps if you want a browse of what's available, with closed source ones marked clearly:

The NTS has improved the Village over the years. "They have reroofed [some of] the cottages on the main street, restored the church, and restacked stones that years of gales had toppled from the cleits, or bothies, that dot the volcanic landscape", according to a November 2017 report.[42] One cottage, #3 on "The Street", was more extensively restored and turned into the museum.[43][44]
