PDF Gear is the free alternative I use. Adobe can eat read a dick.

Yeah lemmy.ml has gotten worse with tankies, but it’s no where near as bad as the others. And I still want to see some lemmy.ml communities (tech, gaming).

But unless it’s changed with some of the recent updates, blocking instances as a user (on lemmy) only blocks posts from the instance but still allows interaction with their users in comments of posts. It’s different for kbin and mastodon.

I don’t want the annoyance of arguing with tankies from their main instances. I’d rather be defederated.

Also, why go back to lemm.ee and do that when I don’t need to on feddit.de? That seems kind of silly in the first place.

I’m happy on feddit.de, as they are really only defederated from the tankies and Threads.

I left L.W when they federated with Threads and tried lemm.ee, but dealing with the tankies is so annoying I had to find another new home and settled for feddit.de.

I get 3x as many groceries at Costco for the same price as at Walmart.

This is exactly the route I’ve been thinking about heading!

I’ve still got some songs (including horrendously misattributed artists/titles) from limewire in my music library, all these years later.

Eh, that only goes so far. Any appeal to their original content is eroded by their practices surrounding streaming packages.

I canceled when they bumped their price up a lot, and had it structured to where the HD streaming was paired with the package for a bunch of devices. It’s bullshit that they don’t allow HD streaming with a package with only 1 or 2 devices.

I am also deterred by their password sharing crackdown, because I used to share subscription payments with my brother in another household.

I read that they’re planning on doing away with the commercial free subscription, and I have no interest to resubscribe if it’s a payment plus commercial model.

The convince of having quality original content in one place is nullified by their sleazy bullshit practices. There’s no way that their “convince” outweighs the little effort it takes to pirate the content IMO.

Steam and Netflix are the sole reasons I stopped pirating as a teenager/young adult.

I canceled Netflix long ago at this point and have been on the brink of going back to pirating films/TV. Too many streaming services… it’s just like TV packages before Netflix disrupted the model.

Man… I tried to hit clear after looking at this for a second…

Same, been on galaxy phones since 5 (not every model), and have never seen it either. Then again, I have been running Adguard on my phones the whole time.

Edit: Wow, this comment showed up 3 times…

This really irks me, because it applies to subs related to weed or other non-sexual content, including some games. I’ve also been hit with the same prompt to open the official app for subreddits that are “under review” or new.

I only go to reddit from search engine queries to get answers for a topic.

I just posted on reddit for the first time since the API disaster to get support for the watchmaker app (that is the dev’s official source for support).

I noticed a weird glitch happening to me (mobile site on Firefox) in which if I edit a comment, it loses all formatting. Like, every space between ‘paragraphs’ dissappears, and so did the block quotes. It just put “>” in with the jumbled up mess…
