It would be funny if it didn’t hurt so much. Rent is too high, grocery bill has me intermittent fasting, and I walk/bike instead of driving now. Shit is rough out here.
Lol it’s like going back in time. I remember the days when sites wouldn’t support certain browsers because of differences in programming (accidental, if you will). Now, we’ve gone full circle and are intentionally blocking use of a site when not using a particular browser. Wouldn’t this be considered monopolistic?
Don’t forget the company meetings where leadership says things like “this is the best quarter we have ever had”, along with “we need to work harder to stay competitive”. Sigh.
That's not true. The senior management team will be getting raises in line with inflation and also huge bonuses for those record profits. Not to mention their share value increasing.
I mean, it’s valid, if not for the incorrect reason. I personally fast past breakfast all the time , mainly because I’m not a huge fan of it. Otherwise, yeah…
I feel Reddit had more of them. I don't mind not getting spammed with OnlyFans messages from obviously not bots. I think they wanted my money, not my love.
I mean, it’s different in a lot of very important ways. The way Lemmy sorts is incredibly transparent, one of the beauties of open source. It’s incredibly stripped down and you have a lot of control over what is in front of you. It isn’t deliberately opaque like Twitter et al. That almost always end up trying to make you angry to keep you engaged. There are not a lot of background algorithms and an army of white-collar employees with billions of dollars and decades of research at their fingertips trying to make sure you never look away from your screen. If you have an unhealthy relationship with social media, and you are on the fediverse, it’s a little more on you than it is on the instance/Admins/devs. People who are addicted to TikTok and other social media apps in a lot of ways are partially victims. How can we expect 15 year olds to be able to emotionally handle these sites that, once again, are spending billions of dollars over decades to learn how to manipulate us as much as possible?
Everything after “my house” seems a bit superfluous. The memes below might as well be emojis or bright red arrows and circles pointing at snoop dogg’s 40x jpg compressed joke.
Wow this comment is funny, see it’s funny cos it points out how useless the thing below it was, see how it does that? Everyone look at this comment here and I’ll explain how it does that so you know because you couldn’t figure it out from the first bit.
