Long time reddit lurker here, trying out a few alternatives at the moment but quite liking Lemmy. Glad to see growth in all of them and super excited for the boost for Lemmy app coming out!
It's been a really suspect timeline of Russia's invasion of Ukraine being met with global backing of Ukraine largely on Twitter, Musk's meeting with Putin, Musk's buyout of Twitter, and subsequent evisceration of the site.
I’ve heard a lot that it’s also something to do with KSA and MbS. Don’t forget, musk also kowtowed to Erdogan’s demands to censor twitter in Türkiye during the election in May
for a UK perspective, we have a cinema chain over here called Everyman, it’s cinemas but every seat is a sofa/couch! and you can order food to the seats. unless it’s a peak screening, you usually get a whole couch to yourself. matinée shows are roughly ~$17 for adult, ~$11 for child. what’s pictured in the OP is no doubt one of those pull-down chairs with the itchy carpet material too. ouch!
I use Regal’s subscription service cause Regal is what I have near me. It’s pretty good but I much prefer A-List. Regardless, $20/month and I can see as many movies as I want. If not for that there’s no way I’d be going to the theater for anything.
Two things worth checking with your local theater: they may have cheaper viewings on Tuesdays, and look for any rewards program that will most likely waive your convenience fees on top of earning points. Points make your drink/concession purchases much more reasonable.
We SHOULDN’T have to do this, but until something better comes along, these are ok alternatives.
