Yeah, in good and in bad, this place is a lot like “the old days of the internet”, but thankfully more in the good way than the bad. People keep complaining about shit I haven’t seen for a second, constantly there are actions from the mod/admin side about shit I’ve never even seen etc. Even without proper mod tools and shit it seems like everything is working out quite well. To which I and all of us owe a huge thank you to the people working on this stuff.

Thank you people! Thank you for making this place feel like home and something greater than what we’ve had for a long ass time.

Out of all the things that Spotify is shitty for that’s the least of my worries about them, and I fucking hate right-wing shitheads. People would rather see the artists they love starve if it gave them convenience to enjoy their art without actually paying for what they do.

It’s honestly kind of baffling to see people go up in arms enough to side with fucking Disney “in support of artists” because AI is supposedly stealing from them and the same people go on with their lives and put on Spotify and feel self-righteous. People fucking suck.

Oh my god thank you, been trying to find something that does exactly this for a while. Subscribed to hundreds of communities and blocked even more and I was seriously considering adding and blocking everything manually to another account on another instance. Thank god I was lazy with that.

Yeah, my parents went from chucking EVERYTHING in the same bin, food waste, cardboard, paper, batteries, whatever it is it went in the same bin and it smelled like death and leaked every single time. Now they recycle cardboard, at least milk cartons. I mean sure, there’s some change, but what use is it when the change should be pretty fucking big to make a difference - like you say, too little too late.

I’m glad this is happening while most of the Boomers are still alive, they can see exactly what kind of world they’re passing on to their grandchildren before they go.

LMAO as if they give a shit. I talked with my parents about how they’re so privileged to be able to be so carefree (read: careless) about everything while I probably won’t ever see retirement or necessarily be able to drink water from the tap (we have excellent water) like they do and it was like I was talking an alien language. They don’t give a fuck.

My folks had a stove with two (electric) heat elements in the same way I assume OP has, to use both, you had to go 360° all the way to a full circle where it “clicked”, then go back to where you wanted it at. Much easier and sensible IMO than whatever the hell this headache is.

They’re blocking the dashcam or something? I think.

I guarantee you that’s not the reason. They did/do similar shit with Facebook and people were pissed, now anyone barely remembers or cares. People don’t care and facwbook/meta/zuck certainly doesn’t.

No way, where are you from? Over here it’s 50% farts, 30% air, 20% chips.

And that is cheap in your mind?

Exactly. Like, I get that people want to have fun and all and I’m all for it even if it’s not my thing, but any relevant discussion was constantly drowned out by the pun chains and copypasted shit to the point that it was fairly obviously often just bots, but as long as a few people have their fun fuck the discussion right? Right… but I/you/we gotta be less cynical, as was said above the lemmy algo is apparently better with this stuff. So I’m at least going to try to be a little hopeful.
