It’s very possible - you literally just type them in.

I like 2, 5 and 8 - but you can use any number you like :

258

Give it a try.

Sunny OP ,

I would have thought these numbers are more-less controlled by PlayStore and not the publisher themselves? Or did I misunderstand you?

I didn’t know it was the store

They advertise aggressively through YouTubers/streamers. A lot of mushy brained people probably download it once just to see what their favourite e-girl is on about. Then once they realize it’s not providing them any tangible value they don’t use it, but probably leave it installed since nobody ever uninstalls apps from their phone.

Sunny OP ,

Ok so they do advertise, good to know thanks

bionicjoey ,

Well IDK because I use ad block and sponsor block for everything, but all the big VPNs do

Woozythebear ,

Why you targeting “E-girls” specifically?

520 ,

It's not specific to e-girls. Can be twitch streamers, bloggers, etc

bionicjoey ,

That was just a bit of humour. I just mean in general whatever streamer or YouTuber someone might be watching, they are probably getting paid the VPN bucks.

Woozythebear ,

Maybe leave out the E-girl thing next time, no need to single them out. Maybe it was an attempt at humor, but hating on E-girls is really popular among incels and your comment sounds a lot like the stuff they say.

bionicjoey ,

I wasn’t hating on e-girls, I was goofing on the simps that idolize them, to the point of downloading a VPN app because their gamer girl parasocial gf was paid to tell them to.

Maybe don’t go around assuming everyone is an Incel unless they announce otherwise.

Should I also announce all of my political positions to you, just so you can be sure you don’t need to downvote me?

Woozythebear ,

Yeah my mistake, you aren’t just posting like an incel. you are a incel.

MigratingtoLemmy ,

And you don’t get to police people’s opinions

Woozythebear ,

I can and will. if you’re hating on women and that guy is, I’m gonna call it out.

I’ve seen plenty of ads for nord, this is the first I’m hearing of turbo

DudeDudenson , to technology in How come TurboVPN can have double the amount of downloads compared to NordVPN and ExpresVPN? ++

Ever heard of bots?

Sunny OP ,

Right, I wanted to confirm that.

Woodstock , to technology in How come TurboVPN can have double the amount of downloads compared to NordVPN and ExpresVPN? ++

Does it come pre-installed on any phones? Might be a reason the downloads are inflated.

Sunny OP ,

Not as far as I know or have researched, but good idea!

The AIs are already scraping Lemmy dammit

MajinBlayze ,

Why scrape Lemmy when you could set up your own activitypub server, subscribe to everything, and let all the other hosts send the data to you in a format that’s already formatted in a way that’s easy to add to your training data.

Chunus looks so smug because he know he’s got that “most likely to become a lumberjack” vote locked up.

I dunno, Jorch thinks he’s got pretty good chances too.
