Its worth it. People spend thousands of hours in it.

If they would price games based on the average amount of hours players spent in them, you would see this at 40 dollars probably…

And counterstrike would be 60 dollar or more…

Yeah its the time cost I dont want to pay…

Yeah its not a perfect system, has some flaws, but its actual freedom from surveillance and late stage capitalism on the plus side.

Not bad for a free, modern desktop that looks stunning.

Sounds like a Microslop Copilot decision.

So we just need to get rid of all helium and all billionaires will be gone?

This sounds like good news.

Looks like I will keep my computer from 2017 forever at this point…

Wow thats actually more crazy than i though even Microslop would accomplish.

Their stock price is being hammered and for good reason…

Chat gpt will probably also add ads though. They were even open to sex bot chats as I understand it.

The Enshittify will not stop.

Yeah there are like a handful of instances with 90% of the users.

100% agree, and its sad that we never get encouraged to think about all the good qualities people actually have also. Almost every single human being here, from 8 billion or so, are happily living in peace with other humans.

People who dont, are world “leaders” , or in prison.

I dont think this is very true. How do you explain that 99.99% of people are super happy living their lives with just enough money to have somewhere to live and pay for food and some vehicle?

To me it seems that we have like 0.0001% of the population being super greedy and mentally ill, and they are the ones being talked about in the media and the ones turning Earth into a shitty place because of their enormous greed and lust for power.

Well what do you expect when the entire community thinks everyone should sign up for Lemmy.world and make this place even more centralized?

Its really stupid, but thats what it is… Hey look, we have federated technology! Lets all go to Lemmy.world because its the largest instance and users dont know what to pick anyway, so lets just put them there.

Lets make another centralized reddit with federated technology!

Honestly I dont think federation even is a valuable feature. People just want to be where everyone else is. The idea is good, but people dont care about the tech, they just want to use their apps and enjoy the experience.

There are some small advantages to many instances but the trend is to not even federate with instances that you dont like, so… Lol.

Decision fatigue? Almost everyone picks lemmy.world, and the UX is the same everywhere, specially if you use mobile apps.

Thats actually insane in itself that it got that close. Next time they will succeed. :/

People are so stupid to support this. They dont seem to understand that its never about protecting anyone and its always about building dystopia.

Every day, these guys make our life worse and destroy what we love.

Nothing we do changes anything. We can just talk about how they make us feel.

Good luck banning something that any computer in the world can run. You have wireguard vpn built into the Linux kernel. :)

On Linux you can just turn the kernel into a router with a few commands. Its actually very cool.

Yep, marketed as very safe, meeting “standards” .

I didnt say they cant cause harm, I said i like his movies and the guy seems alright to me, since I dont put pro-lgbt as my primary reason for liking a person in this world.

I think if you want to live in a democracy, you have to be OK with people having opinions you dont agree with.

Some of them will be bigots but perhaps have other qualities that are making up for it. Some will not like lbqt and thats something a lot of people dont like outside of Lemmy. So I dont know, I just dont look for these heroes that are perfect in my eyes.

Some of the pro-lgbt people here are most likely not very good people as well in other areas. Its just how people are…

I think the best we can do is accept that everyone has their own path in life, and their own purpose. We may not agree with that but they are here for a reason, just like you are. As long as you can remain non-hateful against people you dont like, I think thats a very good accomplishment, since everyone is trying to make us fight eachother over opinions.
