I dislike this sentiment. Just because something is FOSS or open source, doesn’t mean it’s not harvesting your data or doing something nefarious.

Wtf is your problem copy and pasting your comment everywhere? No one keeps asking for your opinion on each comment.
When?
Anyone have a non-paywalled link?
modern day media has a big impact on that, also you being part of that history.
I rarely see that,. But what I see all the time is Linux lovers being toxic fanboys trying to shove their “passion” down everyone’s throat. Also, 99% of them being wrong about what it can “offer”.
Its a pure superiority complex fanbase.
Okay, wow.
You do know rent is just someone with a mortgage on a house too right? (Paid off or not)
And if that landlords mortgage goes up, that will also make the rent they charge go up. ( Often far more than the rent, as it’s percentage related. So, if your friend was renting, he’d be even worse off…
So, what you’re saying is… Is house rates went up on his mortgage right?
And because of that he became poor?
So you’re saying your right with the assumption that if he rented his rent wouldn’t also double??
Absolutely is. It’s fucking outstanding how big corps are eating it up.
Alrogithm corp = nothing new, boring low evaluation
Change it’s name to:
AI corp= 1 BILLION DOLLARS!
AI isn’t new. Algorithms “are” ai. All apps always used it. But it’s changed from algorithms to AI.
Lemmy users don’t respond well to reasonable criticism or facts.
Only toxic and stupid comments allowed.
No disgusting UI trying to make you watch other shite that is clearly a failure.
No scrolling threw pages down to just get down to the “continue watching” section.
No advert between each episode that isn’t an “ad” screaming the same scene for their next original failure.
No shite algorithm recommending me the next show I’m clearly not interested in
I don’t know much about Friendica, does it have a website/pwa that I can try?
Or does it need a party to create a site like Lemmy?
It’s sad that I was hoping for Lemmy to be a place to have a better vetting of comments by votes but its frankly worse than Reddit.
Its hive mind is sadly becoming less diverse and just up votes “LOL THIS THING BAD” with no sourcing or anything.
I’ve found myself sadly going back to Reddit more because the comments are just of higher quality and diversity of opinions.
If you donate to the devs, of course they still have to pay taxes. That’s still income.
Okay? And physical stores don’t? This isn’t news and doesn’t address your claim whatsoever? It doesn’t compare spotify vs indi labels.
Discoverability, publishing, advertising, gigs etc.
Wohh there, that’s a lot of claims with 0 proof.
Can yo source any of that?
You’re completely right. People suck steams dick are ridiculously hypocritical and blond.
I was mocked for defending Epic trying to compete withs steam. They’re doing great work for Devs and gamers. But sadly, blind gamers (who claim they hate monopolys) aren’t self aware enough to see the trees through the forest.
Let me frame this another way.
Google is monopolistic and kills any other competitor from competing. Thus preventing consumer choice.
Google is already one of the biggest companies in the world. I’ve never given them a penny in my 2 decades of service use. Yet the line goes up.
They exist because of us the consumer.
They also don’t pay, let alone treat, their creators fairly. Although they are 99% the reason they exist.
Yet Google wants more because line must go up.
There are other services I pay for such as nebula, float plane, patron specifics. But not all creators can sustain that. And I doubt it I pay for YouTube that will change. Because spoiler alert. YouTube don’t pay well. It’s sponsors and merch that keep creators alive.
Wtf is this thinking.
Open Ai wouldn’t use something or someone without consent? There’s a plethora of lawsuits and evidence that they did that with pretty much every medium out there.
