If I’m to believe I own the crap I buy that’s digital delivery, then if they want to take it back, they need to buy it from me at my price.

One look at my old Yahoo and Hotmail determined this was a lie.

One look at my spam folder in gmail makes me realize why I wouldn’t leave. I’ve felt Google nailed spam detection.

Having an AI bot is a litigation liability.

I’m 45 and I just made an illegal Uturn. Politics is trash meant to divide for the purposes of distraction.

I stopped using Chrome about 3 weeks ago. Used Edge for a while but finding out that is Chromium, I landed back on Firefox after 10 years of not using it. Just moved all my bookmarks and plugins.

Why? Principles the moment people force me to use their software is the moment I leave.

Anyone have family call them after finding out blocking ads on YT is even possible?

I think all this is causing a bit of Streisand effect. Now even more will be blocking ads.

Yeah, same, although I’m cautious. Edge has grown on me, I do like it more than Chrome.

I’ve uninstalled Chrome on all computers in my home. Back to Firefox with Edge as a backup browser if needed.

Streaming platforms are all joining in on the enshitification process.

Soon, people will join one service for one month then switch to the next.

After that, they will all begin contracts to “lock in the price.” Possibly in bundle agreements with multiple providers.

That’s when the full transition to $120+ cable costs returns, but in streaming format.

Uhh, Redbox is still super cheap

Bing sucks. Their customer support is absolutely terrible. They blocked one of my sites and I can never get a response, so I just don’t bother with it (and don’t advertise there)

I still have Adobe blacklisted for demanding cloud with monthly subscriptions.

How about instead of all the tracking cookie popups for permission, we force these sites to display a message that the content is AI generated.

People do that when they don’t have an answer. I can’t remember the last song I’ve saved, for instance.

This whole thing is insane. Charging people to be the product that gets advertised to. That’s why cable is dying… same thing.

Watched it today on his YouTube channel. Pretty epic. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOFChFxsJ3I

I didn’t know who Huffman, spez or the fact there was a bid to IPO until Apollo’s announcement of closure occurred. Why? Because I didn’t subscribe the Reddit’s main subreddits, I was very niche.

Once I learned about all that, I vowed if they didn’t reverse their standing and treatment of Christian, I was leaving.

Once the last week of June came and Spez triple-downed on his terrible business decision, I began using tools to destroy all of my content including topics I made that were all ranking #1 in Google, that causes plenty of PMs years after creation.

I’ve since deleted all but one account that I’ll probably hold onto just in case they decide to block my access to information I need.

I’ve deleted Apollo, Reddit’s official app and logged out on all browsers across all platforms I use. I’m done and liking WefWef as a replacement.
