Or you can just not use the product. It’s what I do. And it works wonders.
so smart
That's not so easy when it's something you already paid for and then they lay unacceptable terms on you and if you don't agree they get your money and you don't even get to use it.
Buyer beware. Sunken cost is not a viable reason to continue getting fucked by a company.
I mean, look at how bad it is:
People are meaninglessly downvoting me because I’m suggesting they not use a service made by a company that notoriously and provenly has fucked them over for years.
This is Stockholm syndrome. They defend the very thing that abuses them.
dumb take.
lets all become caveman because corporations took control of the entire modern world.
So compliant, such a good boy.
Wait. Let me get this straight…
You’re saying that I’m a “compliment good boy” for not putting up with the bullshit antics of a major corporation and deciding to not use their shit product?
Meanwhile, Lemmy is nearly bursting at the seams with little kids whining about how “bootlickers” stick up for and defend major corporations.
Is today some sort of Opposite Day?
WTF is wrong with this place?
Well while you're choosing not to lick the boot that steps on you the rest of us are choosing to wear the the boot by ignoring the wishes of capitalist whores and exploiting their services that are bought and paid for as evidenced by a profit margin.
ROFL! Good luck with that. They’re bigger and better than anything you can try.
Your only effective weapon is your ability to not use their services. But you can’t do that, can you?
And they know that. Because they know you.
Lol I'm using their services for free without ads, how am I not taking advantage?
Do what you wish, but whining about something while still using it is foolish.
Then why are you still on Lemmy if all you do is whine about it? Self awareness isn't your strong suite is it?
When have I whined about Lemmy? It’s a completely fine product. I’ve had no issues with it whatsoever.
All over his thread.
Some of the idiots that use it? Ot the platform itself? Because you see, there’s a big difference.
I’m not talking about YouTubers. I’m talking about YouTube. If I had a problem with Lemmy. I wouldn’t use it. Sure, there are a bunch of obnoxious blowhards that like to crate straw men arguments, and talk shit they know nothing about- but that’s not a slight against the platform, just some dipshits that use it.
But don’t let this get on the way of whatever argument you seem to think you have. You seem sure of it, so please…. Continue.
Oof sounds like a lot of justification for your hypocrisy.
Wow. You really like to chose what you get to see in things, don’t you?
I choose to see what you show.
Okay buddy.
