Blah blah blah blah.

I don’t care who does and who doesn’t get paid, and I’ll come up with every excuse to ignore that pesky creator income.

The mental hoops you all go through is insane. It’s on par with Trumpers, just less damaging.

Oh good, round 3. I really can’t wait to have 10 posts each time Google updates its ad blocking code.

Yup. And the current status quo will continue. Folks will use WhatsApp, iOS, RCS.

Support companies like signal and telegram.

Good luck getting anyone to use it.

Wat?

Nope.

Oh no, the bad man told me to pay for the privacy service I use instead of freeloading and stealing from them.

It’s one thing to steal shit because it’s unavailable. I think it’s another to steal from a company offering reasonable privacy services competing against Whatsapp. And then you’ll all bitch when it’s only Facebook left. Signal is certainly circling the drain.

I’m going to just advise you to consider the nature here and if you really want to self host. Unless you really think you’ve put enough effort in to make sure your running HA and are prepared to support.

Consider when you may need this most, in an emergency where you ain’t going to be troubleshooting with a family members health on the line.

IMO, I have zero interest in that level of responsibility.

Bah, you’re correct, slip up.

How about no. Mormon level spamming.

👌

Stealing the right to distribution and money out of people’s pockets. Kimdotcom really did a number on y’all.

Are you spending 50k on new vehicles? Have you ever bought a brand new car? Are you commenting on a sub brought together buy a common thread of stealing content?

Maybe consider that.

Oh look, ANOTHER thread filled with users shocked that Google doesn’t give a damn about ad blocking customers.

Cobb tuning, the largest shop I know, has 35 employees and was started as a single guy in 2000. That’s the biggest. All downhill from there.

It’s specialized automotive software that’s typically only sold to auto enthusiast. Revenue 18M last year.

Ahhh stealing from small companies now?

So kill the Internet I guess 🤷‍♂️?

People do this to themselves. They CHOOSE to stay indoors and play games. They CHOOSE to binge Netflix instead of volunteering. They order delivery instead of going to the restaurant.

And it’s because it’s easier to sit at home. It’s easier to bitch on lemmy then going out and working with your local community, going to local events, and getting up and being social.

It’s easier to sit at home and just be angry and bitch at the world through a screen.

You think you are getting to Walt’s head without a fight and violence?

I asked for an example of copyright hurtting society.
