I just see as a sign it’s never gonna work. Not under Elon, not X. He’s a megalomaniac idiot…

And I don’t see how it’s “unethical” either. It’s annoying, rude, stupid, ridiculous, shitty, sure. But unethical? They didn’t promise anything, they even gave some compensation even though they didn’t need to, right? Ethics isn’t even objective so I just don’t think that’s remotely meaningful, what ethical boundary are they overstepping? “To forcibly change someone’s social media handle is unethical”?

IDK, just don’t use Twitter!! I guess I just don’t see this as a big issue because I think Twitter is dumb, I suppose if you use the app a lot… IDK.

I mean, it’s their app. Sure it’s shitty, but at the end of the day it’s just a username. IDK. A minor inconvenience at most.

Oh thanks for letting me know, might check it out!!

It’s good yes! My favourite is probably “To Pimp a Butterfly” by Kendrick Lamar.

You know it’s crazy when they go the extra mile to get the fucking exclamation point

Well, that’s all great. But the big problem with these kinds of platforms is always that hosting all this data (especially videos) is extremely expensive. It’s not necessarily impossible that donations+ads+subs can cover all the infrastructure costs, but generally there’s a need for some sort of big capital backing. Open Source is not something that gets that sort of private investment.

But hey maybe. I’d absolutely love that.

The model is pretty successful anyway, some people here have mentioned Pixiv and Nebula.

Oh wow OH WOW I WAS JUST THINKING ABOUT THIS!!! Yes!!!

I’ve pre-emptively raised my ReVanced usage to 100% so IDRC.

Ooh I’ll check out 0 + 2 = 1! The album cover looks really neat too.

Congrats!

Laughed out loud at this.

Just looked it up. Really interesting… Found this article about the band.

Well, at least it’s well-loved now!

Is it underrated? It’s very highly rated on RYM, and everything I read about this is positive and talking about how influential it is haha

It is very good though, it’s made it into my Favourite Of All Time list.

I suggest the “Delta” icon pack, if you haven’t tried it yet. It’s really good, IMO.

LMFAO I didn’t even see that in the midst of all the clutter!

Yup! It’s fucking insane…

Is someone about to be murdered by the CIA?

Scamception, if you will.
