Same. I’m not a conspiracy theorist. However, most top Google results are those garbage sites that are definitely not written by humans. I wonder if search will die soon as bots begin to dominate SEO (more than they already do). The search paradigm will definitely have to change.
This is the way.
I’ve had android phones since the G1. The Nexus One was pretty freaking sweet, but my favorite phone of all time was either the Nexus S or the Nexus 5x. The curved screen on the S was great and it fit into the back pocket of my pants “like a glove”.
I see what you’re saying, but it is really easy to drum up support, especially with how effective the media has become at manipulating public opinion. I’ve seen the US go to war over much less in my life.
I used to use my Blackberry to read Digg every morning in college while waiting for classes to start. It was great in its heyday, but maybe that’s just nostalgia or that I’d not experienced anything quite like it prior.
How do you know it isn’t now? (see: Dead-Internet Theory)
What are they expecting to happen if they attack Taiwan? They’ll start the next world war. There isn’t a reality where the West is going to let them have it, regardless of how effective their “precision strikes” or suicidal their lunatics are.
Journalists should be forbidden from using “blasts” in headlines.
You’re not missing anything but ads. I cannot understand the Sync hype and attribute all posts about it to promotion.
Yeah, that “exclusivity” attitude is the worst. I welcome anyone to the fediverse! The nature of the fediverse prevents any one entity from “fucking it up”, as the image claims; if you don’t like an instance or the instances it federates with, move to a different one that is more in-line with your values.
I was excited to try Sync after all the hype (read: advertising) on Lemmy, saw that it had ads, and noped the fuck out.
You do you, but I’m not gonna use that kind of garbage. Ads don’t “keep apps accessible”. Instead, they poison your mind specifically and suck balls in general. The entire advertisement model is flawed, and certain kinds of people only put up with it because they don’t know better.
Same thing just happened with IVPN :-\
