The day they announced their rebrand was the last day I bought anything from them. I refuse to give them any more money on principle. If they can shell out nearly a half billion on a rebrand, they can drop some of their prices.

Any thoughts on this OP or is this more "let me just link this everywhere and not actually give any discussion about it myself" links are so prevalent on lemmy lately.

Any synopsis? Or is this just to drive clicks to your blog?

This community seems to be inundated with just random links with no actual information added as to why I should want to click it, or what is actually at the link.

This is a prime example. It's simply a link to a blog, with "Free Public Wifi" as the title. Literally nothing else. No synopsis, no information as to why I should want to click it, or read whatever is written. Just an ambiguous title linking to an ambiguous blog.

Of course it's also cross-posted to as many other communities as possible.

Thank you, I am quickly getting quite sick of people just link bombing communities without adding anything to say what the links actually are or do. There should be rules around it. I already block bots (which doesn't seem to work) I guess it's time to start blocking other accounts that do this.

That's why it's stated in the Lemmy docs to use an image host instead of uploading directly. Unfortunately, most users don't do that.

That's on you, not the internet or google. As has been pointed out, dot al is a TLD for a country. Just because you can't type properly and didn't spell check yourself, doesn't mean the internet is doomed.

You're right, I have zero posts so far, I'm not sure what point you're trying to make there though. Perhaps you think everyone should keep posting the same thing ad nauseam?

As soon as I find "something I want to discuss" I'll be sure to post it. Until then I'll just keep browsing past the same things that keep being posted time and again here.

Rest assured, nothing will change for you

If I had a dollar for every time I've read that, only to have everything change 6-12 months later, I'd be rich.

Is there some award for being the very last person to post this in this community or something? This has been discussed to death about a dozen times already.

Why is crap from 2 weeks ago being posted like it's new news yet again

Is this one of those bot accounts that aren't marked properly or is OP just after karma (which doesn't exist on this site).

Stuff and... things...

I'm not super active (and wasn't on reddit either) so I'm mostly here to see what other people are doing, and learn some things.

Don’t have any real evidence to substantiate this,

Then why post it and spread FUD?

Seriously shit like this is ridiculous and should get you banned. I can make shit up with no evidence as well, but it does no one any good.
