He said on the WAN show that when they dropped Honey a few years ago, the news was going around all over creator circles and a lot of other creators dropped them then too. And they didn’t make a video because at the time only the affiliate yoinking was known, and the audience would probably call them shills for making a video about how they’re losing money due to their audience saving money.
I don’t think his defense is 100% airtight, but it’s useful context.
AI bad grrrrr
I bought a ticket, thanks for the post. I don’t expect to win, but it’d be cool if I did and it’s a good excuse to send $10 to some cool projects
Is this similar to how Mozilla is set up?
I know apps don’t like having subscriptions through Apple/Google where they take 15-30%, but it does make it easier to cancel sometimes
I’m visually impaired so it’s entirely possible I missed them
I didn’t know until today that you could opt out of it
They have a similar partnership with Fedora
Lol our standup+parking lot is scheduled for an hour. Kill me.
I thought Amazon Music was a small up-charge on top of prime?
Is this also on WhatsApp? I got all the other Meta junk off my phone except that, since I need it for some family abroad
The town my parents live in would rather pay fines every year than build the state mandated amount of affordable housing and risk, gasp, lowering property values!
Exactly. I told her that 8gb might be fine for a year or two, but if she wants this thousand plus dollar laptop to last four years she needs to invest the extra money now. Especially once she told me she might want to play Minecraft or Shadow of the Tomb Raider on it
My sister just bought a MacBook Air for college, and I had to beg her to spend the extra money on 16gb of memory. It feels like a scam that it appears cheap with the starting at price, but nobody should actually go with those “starting at” specs.
Phone maybe, but not a SIM card with data. Although you can do a lot without a SIM card if your school has public WiFi I guess
I strongly believe that a large part of the reason China is so strict with underage phone and game restrictions is because the parents are at work for too long to do any real parenting. Ideally parents should be the ones making those choices and actually monitoring their kids, but since I don’t have kids I can’t really say for myself.
I made my AOL mail account in 2006 and still use it. I don’t use it as my primary email anymore, but I have hundreds of accounts tied to it
I’ve switched to indie games or older releases in my backlog
Good on you for having such a detailed and well-meaning post, and good on the devs for being so receptive to ideas. I run Immich but am definitely a novice when it comes to self hosting things, so I had no idea this was going on. I don’t have any suggestions for the feature request but the proposed changes to the documentation would be good for people to know its thete and can be changed.
They’ve only made a standalone video addressing stuff a few times on their channel, the vast majority of the time they save it for WAN Show or at most a community post.
