I find that it very much depends. It was very positive a month ago, but day by day I see a lot more arguing, name calling, and petty downvoting.

So Apple users being shitty and I’m the problem? Lol

McDonough even admitted that when her ex-boyfriend switched from an iPhone to an Android phone, she felt that was the moment their relationship “started to go downhill.”

Firefox does this by default. So that.

Ad block isn’t really a solution.

Really proves that Apple users believe Apple is perfect and they are protected, even when there’s official documentation stating otherwise. It’s baffling how many Apple users think they are fully anonymous and protected and not tracked. Apple is brainwashing you well.

Exactly! Apple wants to make sure the personal data they hand out is directly from them.

Isn’t WhatsApp super popular in the EU as a whole? Like to the point where EVERYONE uses it? What does the UK have to say about that? It’s apparently E2EE, right?

Curious why WhatsApp isn’t in trouble.

Apple should remove FaceTime and iMessage from North America, so kids stop getting bullied for green texts, despite having a superior phone.

But seriously, why is the kid with a $200 iPhone 5 with a cracked to shit screen laughing at the kid with a $1200 Android phone with features Apple will “invent” 10 years later? All over a green bubble?

Although, it was pretty nice to be able to see which people are lowlife losers on Tinder back in my dating days. They made it very clear how shitty they were when they bashed me for my green bubbles. Saved me a ton of time!

Oh that’s really annoying. All of the obvious hate for the official app aside, why would Reddit think it’s okay to take content and plaster a banner on it? I imagine people who uploaded nudes or original art were pissed.

Used reddit for like 15 years and never knew how people got that text on the bottom to begin with? How?

What? millions and millions of people? Do you realize not everyone lives in a city? Satellite TV is insanely popular in Canada. Every single provider offers it.

They have WISP and Starlink also. Both using satellites.

Not sure why you think a satellite is some ancient technology lmao. It’s the norm outside of cities.

It increased a couple months ago to like $25 CAD lmao. Still worth it, though. I watch so much YouTube.

It’s weird how people are fine paying for Netflix, Hulu, CrunchyRoll, Twitch, etc, but draw the line at YouTube, the platform that has infinite more content and actual value.

It’s still less than my parents pay for satellite. Also comes with YouTube Music if you wanna ditch Spotify. Kinda a 2 in 1 deal.

The only songs that have ever been removed from my library (Spotify shows you) are remixes/mashups where the person doing it never had permission.

Not really sure what you mean by you listen to what they propose? You search what you want, follow other people, listen to playlists you or other people have made.

Oh I don’t. I just move them there because Twitch deletes them after a few days. I don’t care about them, it’s just an easy 1 click button to save them on YouTube.

In fact I stopped relying on Google services when they banned the Terraria developers Google account and the only way he got it back was by canceling the Stadia release of Terraria.

Since that day, I switched to ProtonMail with a custom domain, immich.app, proton calendar, and more.

Realized that unless I have to power to potentially cost Google millions of dollars, Google won’t even look my way.

I’m shocked they haven’t already. A good 95% of YouTube could be deleted and no one would notice, and would save Google millions and millions of dollars.

The fediverse can mitigate this a little bit, as everyone can host their own videos on their own server, but that’s not enough, and extremely inconvenient.

and still expensive as hell. Hopefully one of your videos doesn’t go slightly viral, or you’ll get a pretty huge bill from your VPS. Unless you own the infrastructure, you’re paying a huge penny to host video.

Linus from LTT talked about it when it comes to FloatPlane. How stupidly expensive it is to host video.

I literally have like 1TB of video stored on YouTube and privatized. Google is making $0 from my videos, but they still have to store them and have them available if I want to watch it (it’s all of my Twitch VODs). Meanwhile websites like Streamable perma-delete my 5MB video after it gets 0 views in 2 milliseconds.

YouTube is a behemoth that will not be replaced.

Am I missing something? This is very old news. Unless my Lemmy app isn’t showing me the entire post?

Edit: oh, I think you’re a repost bot.

You’re downvoted, but honestly, I understand what you’re saying.

My friends all think it’s fine to text and drive, even in their employers vehicles. If there was a camera, guaranteed they’d stop texting and driving and become way safer.

People don’t like it, obviously. I’d hate being watched. But there’s no doubt it cuts down on accidents.
