Pessimistically, I don’t see how the system gets better without full collapse.

But wow imagine a few normal candidates running again. Imagine getting to vote for politics and not in a rule-breaking popularity contest.

It’s disgusting how many times I’ll catch myself opening an app I closed less than 2 minutes ago because I was bored.

You can livestream there?

I’ve found Google alternatives great for things that are… filtered (copyright etc), but honestly no matter what search engine I use, I swear none just give you the results for your query anymore. I’ve still been finding the Bing-based ones horrible quality for relevancy and defaulting to Google.

PlayStation exclusive items or something incoming then. Very cool Sony thanks for retreating.

Do you think I can just pull up to a kidnapping not prepped with the right music? I’d get kidnapped too.

I don’t run Adblock because I hate brands, I use it because the internet is more invasive by the day.

If one day I go to put on my shirt and another company sewed their logo over the neck hole, well then we’ll have a similar issue.

I am so sick of the new age of zero ownership or protections. Instead of greedy companies losing customers, other companies just see it like “oh shit we can do that too?” and consumers are the only ones losing.

Me personally, a fry

This post made me realize how completely ignorant to covid I’ve become lately… I had to check the date to see if it was current or years old.

Hah, just joined that yesterday.

Guess I should get the blood flowing on my accounts on some other instances.

Those things have been kicking my ass whenever I have a VPN on lately.

I’m out here clicking stairs, motorbikes, crosswalks, traffic lights, and it just keeps giving me “Try Again” …I’m starting to doubt I’m actually human.

This post just made me not take out the trash. I’m not risking it. Maybe I’ll be stronger tomorrow.

Had just under 10 years on my current account and I used the official Reddit app the whole time…

But I just don’t support/respect/enjoy it over there anymore.

Thank you, that looks like a great place to start!

This is probably a stupid question, but for those of you that use Mastodon — how did you find people to follow?

I tried it out a few months ago but I didn’t like the few accounts they recommended, and searching for users or keywords didn’t get me too far either…

The account I share with family still works, but the second it doesn’t… it’s the pirate life for me

Anyone have recommendations for an app (iOS) that doesn’t have slide interactions with comments? I keep upvoting like 4 comments every time I try to swipe out of a post with wefwef/Memmy/Thunder…

When your industry is “having trouble finding the right staff” you might want to rethink where the finger is pointing… spoiler it’s not the staff
