I mean I’ve wanted to change anyway since the enshittification started. I think the first thing was a paid avatar/profile decoration store. Annoying enough, but if they’re decent cosmetics and not crazy prices I can understand. I still wish there was an internal, native seeing that would just remove all the visual teasing of paid options, but I can ignore it. (Mainly I hate trying to add an emoji to chat and just seeing pages of emoji from servers that I can’t use on the one I’m on- which is already super annoying, but they put the regular result ones behind all those so you have to either scroll past them or manually switch to the default emoji page- that’s just pure rage bait- default should be first, followed by the ones from that server that you can actually use)

But my main problem was when Nitro showed up.

Unfortunately, of the up and comers none are quite ready yet, and none have the full suite of functionality.

This change actually doesn’t affect me at all, I don’t really engage with any communities. I have one that I use just to mess with admin options and see what kinda choices there are and how it works, one server with a few friends (like 5 regulars counting myself) and one for some of my siblings that we only really use to play Jackbox remotely.

But I still resent the change and have wanted a good alternative ever since subscriptions started.

Tobacco CEOs should so be living in cardboard boxes. Tobacco anything really. That entire industry should die off.

If I had a button that would kill ever tobacco plant and seed in the world instantly I would tap it repeatedly for a week.

All the tobacco money should be taken and given to victims for related medical problem coverage. They should have to beg for food in the street just so we could laugh at them and say “no”.

People bring this up a lot, but given the way his body works he can probably reload and go again. His partner would drown in jizz.

Somebody watched the Technology Connections video.

My siblings were debating issues with it and about how willing they were to just deal with it.

I’m just shocked at how addicted everyone is to it that it could probably say “Trump is watching all users’ front cameras while the app is open” and kids would still be like "hmmm what are the odds he watches me though?

But everybody’s a zombie.

I mean I downloaded it, back really early, to take a peek. After 15 minutes, I decided I hated the short format, and peaced out.

It seems to largely be a generational thing. Millennials are (in my perception) mostly on it just to make money, zoomers just want that crack IV drip.

Obviously this is just a trend, and there are counter examples everywhere, but that seems to be more true than not. At least from the outside looking in.

And given it’s totally obnoxious censorship rules, now I have to deal with hearing about people getting “unalived”, or “adult fun time”, and “p 3 dee oh” from creators that multistream. Even without being there, I’m forced to experience the cancer secondhand.

That’s my main problem with it. None of the other problems affect me directly much since I’ve always avoided it, but that is smeared all over my shit.

Not sure if this is parody-ing a certain orangie’s math fail, or genuinely confused.

Don’t bother spouting incorrect information then. You made an incorrect assertion. I called it out. Simple as.

Not sure what else I’m supposed to say. You saw a video about some app with timer dials. I have no way of knowing what app that is, but I know what it isn’t. That video you watched is incorrect based on my familiarity with the Google clock app.

I have no idea. You’re the one that used it.

That’s not the Google one.

1-Churches pay double tax

Attending church should cost a tax imo.

Fuck. I bought this forever ago, either for my Droid 2 or my Galaxy S3. Skipped it on my first Pixel and came back on the Pixel 7.

Haven’t really heard any talk about it, didn’t know about the owner/dev drama until seeing some comments here.

Haven’t noticed any ads myself yet, but maybe that’s a “coming soon” thing.

Time to go launcher shopping again. This thread mentioned Lawnchair and Niagara, so I’ll check those out first.

Now we need a website that we can add to that doxxes them that we can browse like a Nazi Facebook site, but frozen in time.
