Just another reason why free software is the way to go.

We could literally look at their source code and put any speculation to rest if it were free.

Bots and governments, lul.

Literally every upvoted post is some stupid reference humor.

I expect lemmy to go the same way, but for now we’re not there yet.

I recommend setting up logging in yourself so you can see why you’re wrong.

Download an adblocker. Stop using ‘smart’ features. Hook your computer up to your TV and get a wireless keyboard/mouse combo.

Use an adblocker.

They don’t care about losing customers to piracy just like fast-food restaurants don’t care about losing people to grocery stores.

They’ve realized it’s more profitable to take further advantage of an ever-shrinking pool of customers.

If you can charge 1 customer twice the price of what you could charge 2, then you make more money because you require less overhead.

For smart people, piracy is a financial problem.

Why pay more for things you can get for free? It’s not like the businesses you’re supporting wouldn’t rob you blind if they thought they could get away with it.

Even the ‘creators’ don’t get the vast majority of the money you spend; their landlords do. When they make more money, rent goes up.

I wish this generation wasn’t full of useful idiots with more money than sense.

Wait till you find out how much energy banking uses…
