Weren’t people in 1980 still burning leaded gasoline, flicking lit cigarettes out of car windows, placing kids unprotected in the backs of station wagons, and serving Big Macs in foam containers?

Even if there is a rash of pika in 2023, I’d say we’re still far advanced

With all the bad transphobic takes I’ve seen on this platform in the past couple of days, I think there’s a real need for gender studies

That’s the meme? But that’s just gender stereotypes

Yeah, I’ve noticed it’s gotten really bad. I’m not a sports fan myself, but I’ve tried watching NFL with my brother, and it’s borderline unwatchable due to the sheer amount of ads.

What’s a good service provider for this? Most ISPs don’t provide usenet access anymore, and I’ve heard the free service providers are wack.

I’m gradually getting to the point where I’ll drop Spotify. Shoving ads for podcasts in my face every time I launch the app was bad enough, but now their app has become such a bloated mess that it bugs out whenever my phone is switching between wifi and mobile data. I have more than 1k songs downloaded just so I don’t have to deal with that, and now I have to deal with it because it’s more important to them to show ads and promotions than it is for their app to do what it’s designed to do.

And before anyone says “tHoSe ArEn’T aDs,” showing me recommended artists and podcasts against my will is absolutely a form of advertising. Do you think they’re showing me new releases from Joe down the street? These are paid promotions, aka ads.

That’s good. Someone’s gotta keep those CIA honeypot workers employed.

If you look through my history and see any comments on a post that’s a link to YouTube, I most likely used this.

I think I have that same CPU cooler

Starting to see why some instances have defederated from lemmy.world

They really need to vet their applications better.

When was thar? Because if memory serves, they started sharing and selling our data shortly after 9/11.

They’ve been evil for a very long time.

What happens if you switch the user agent header? Most of these sites that don’t work with Firefox actually do work but are deliberately designing them not to function with Firefox.

For example, I got Bing AI to work by switching it to mimic Edge.

Good point, there are few people as unlikable than redditors, who are so fragile that they need to disparage other people with words like “stupid,” or tell other people they’re “too sensitive.”

On that note, in my experience, 100% of those who call others too sensitive are colosally bad, unempathetic humans.

Even if you’re right, I’m not going to throw my hands up and do nothing.

It was, actually. I guess you just attack people without even realizing it. Let me guess: You’re a redditor?

It’s not that I don’t care. I intend to do whatever I can to help prevent it. But at the end of the day, if people keep supporting platforms like YouTube, then I see the enshittification of the internet as inevitable. We’re literally welcoming it by doing so.

…therefore, the more people who switch to non-chromium browsers, the better.

You’re preaching to the choir.

I simply will not use the internet until another browser is available? Use that little head.

Reported for being disproportionately hostile. There is no reason to attack someone over something as silly as web browsers.

I wouldn’t complain. Good riddance.
