I’ve legit never understood it’s appeal. Like what even is the purpose of it?
google is also spyware… so is facebook while we’re at it and literally ANY OTHER APP YOU PUT ON YOUR PHONE. Ever notice how every single thing has an app? It’s not to make it easy for you to buy stuff from them, it’s so they can utilize your data to make them more money.
lol straight up troll bait. Also funny cause it’s probably people who “believe in freedom and the constitution” who voted in that dumb poll. Somehow we need a nanny state to take over control of the internet… FREEDOOOOMMMM
troll shit… Probably half the voters were trolls too
Brands that don’t buy enough X adds you mean
I think there are still lots of people holding out hope that we steer off the cliff, but meanwhile we’re still globally using as much fossil fuels as we ever have and while there are things on the horizon the CO2 in the air is not going anywhere. So we are going to have major problems to deal with in terms of human sustainability even if we went 100% green today.
Humans are smart, we need time to change entire species to a more sustainable living. Time we just don’t have. So it’s time we skip the BS and start talking about where we are going to get water, how we are going to farm, how we are going to keep the oceans from destroying our coastlines etc…
If we start now we might be able to mitigate some of the effects of climate change or at the very least make it so not everyone just immediately loses all their assets and/or dies from lack of water or starvation.
Let’s avoid mad max if we can.
I’m not saying we give up the fight on eradicating fossil fuels from our system, but I imagine the downvoters took my post that way. It’s just if you spend about 10 seconds watching CNBC or listening to our politicians you’ll find out pretty quick they don’t care about climate change all that much. Just making money… Even the politicians that do care the best they can do is try to help the “free market” move us to a sustainable future lol. Just not going to work.
We have some major water crisis going on right now in a lot of places in the US. Not just deserts. The water wars will be coming much sooner than we anticipated if we don’t start to prepare for it.
yeah my main problem is while we’re over here still arguing with people about climate change’s existence and the loud solution is to somehow rid ourselves overnight of fossil fuels… Meanwhile that’s all fine and dandy, but even if we stopped using fossil fuels today the damage is there and we’re already seeing critical water shortages in tons of places.
It’s time to accept that we are going to have to live through this to some degree until science hopefully finds a way to suck the carbon out of the air.
The hurricanes, the floods, the droughts… all things we need to start working on solving. Droughts being front and center. We need to desalinate. There is just no way around it. We need to get started on that effort yesterday.
at this point we need to be spending all our money on SURVIVING climate change. We can work on mitigating as well, but we’re past the point of no return and still arguing if it’s even an actual thing lol.
bruh… I think you WAY over estimate “lots of people” on lemmy or reddit even. It’s small change compared to the BILLIONS who don’t give a fuck
I think the advertising it can do is a perfectly reasonable way to monetize…
Their problem is they want to be some major player and not a “right sized” organization… They want to go public and try to be billionaires and be like elon or zuck, but it’s just not going to be that.
So in their quest for GREED they’ll destroy the very thing that can make them absolute massive amounts of money. It’s crazy how many mega corps have fallen to the same fate.
They should welcome 3rd parties and any other means to see reddit and monetize the advertising… Hell they could even try to work streaming deals with NFL and NBA and whatever… Cowboys games live threads alone have caused the entire reddit website to collapse lol.
SOOO much monetization possibilities in that. And it’s charging billion dollar organizations… not the people that use the service…
Spez is not a good business man
There are still some niche subs that didn’t come to lemmy that I engage in, but I spend more time on Lemmy now than I do on reddit. I think there are probably dozens of us like that. So while I might still show “traffic” I’m not spending near as much time as I did on it and since reddit is trying to go public they wont publish that little fact.
Anyone can buy an article, so I expect to see more of these “everything is just hunky dory at reddit” articles because again they have profit motive.
Meanwhile lemmy grows and grows. Hopefully people continue to engage over here to keep it interesting.
games good… I hope the devs come to and allow workshop content. Map makers would go ham on this one and games like this having 100s of maps just add to the longevity.
get back to unpaid work or else!!!
Weak ass protest if mods just cave… I’d be like go for it fuckers… I mean you aren’t going to pay someone and just placing random folks in that position without the mod tools necessary to do the unpaid job is really going to implode.
lol just looking at that instance and yeah I can get behind that decision
Oooo fediverse drama right out of the gates. Meta in Lemmy is going to be interesting no doubt about that.
it’s also really stupid considering the liberal cites are literally what MAKES Texas. There’s mass amounts of population in rural areas that just flat don’t vote. If everyone voted in TX it’s be blue as fuck.
Either way when the cities themselves lose all the workers that high paying jobs need the cities start to fall and the revenue for the state will follow.
Literal idiots that just think the oilfield will go on forever and nothing else will matter
