You want descriptive answers? Make a descriptive question.

It can be as simple as 'what is "x" and why?'

If you are logged in they still have access to your activity and usage statistics which they can sell to third parties.

So it’s true that you are not ‘directly’ generating profit for them in an easily measurable way, and they would consider you among the ‘freeloaders’ that they called all third party app users.

However, you still indirectly benefit them just by using the platform. Especially if you leave comments or post content. If you just use it, lurk at most and come to lemmy for the discussions.

Edit: whoops I read the question backwards

Embedded media and media hosting in general.

I’m not sure what our solution is for this. A good CDN is tough to make. It’s one of the few things I’m pretty sure are better off being centralized.

  1. Copy/Paste
  2. It seems like a lot of people are talking about twitter even if mostly negative. I see it in the news and online way more often than before Elon bought it. And we are talking about it now ;)

Maybe that’s the point though? You were able to type it into a comment and have it pop up on our screen identically to the actual logo.

He wants people to type the symbol instead of ‘X’

You’re not just inconveniencing them, you’re literally causing hundreds of dollars in damage.

Damaging their car isn’t helping anyone, except for making yourself feel better, it’s such an immature way to respond.

It’s like punching someone for using racial slurs and derogatory terms. You’re not in the right to punch them.

An eye for an eye leaves everyone blind.

As shitty as people can be, it’s never appropriate to respond to non-damaging inconvenience with vandalism. That’s you stooping even lower than their level.

Username does not check out.

I kept my account purely to post the occasional comment telling people to move to Lemmy.

I mostly get downvoted because it turns out people don’t give a shit that Reddit controls everything they see and do.

Meh, you sure can.

I have memmy and still prefer wefwef

The first one is the best looking game on switch in my opinion and one of the best playing.

I really hope we get at least close to the level of polish that game had on the next one, even if not as high.

There really is no avoiding tic tok is there?

Even creators I used to respect started creating this adhd-friendly nonsense with 0 educational value.

I can’t imagine how someone born today is going to grow up to be a functional human being. All the big corporations are controlling every single little thing they see.
