subscription fatigue is real.
I LOL'd at that phrase. So true. That being said, $17/yr feels pretty reasonable to me.
So far, I'm seeing placeholders for ads in my feed--but no actual ads. But I have multiple layers of adblocking set up at home, so...
Was being a firefighter a long-term goal that you worked towards, or did you stumble into it, or...?
Roughly once a week. Whenever I'm close to running out of blueberries.
Ooh, purty... 😎
old.lemmy.world has an option for infinite scrolling. I'm enjoying it as we speak!
Hey, thanks for the heads-up. Downloading the Ventura 13.5 update as we speak. 👍
[edit] It's ground to a halt. The Apple servers must be getting hammered?
I love it too. It's my daily driver for quite awhile now.
But, I'll be honest: I have a big concern that it's "too good to be true"--that there will be some massive enshitification or subscription model that will be Adobe-level annoying.
First World problem, of course. I'll just go back to Vivaldi or Firefox. But, man, fingers-crossed!
I always liked his character--and felt bad for him when he got busted.
None of my female friends liked the character tho. Was Pee-wee a "guy thing"?
This is such a nice browser that it's become my daily driver.
But I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop: Will it enshitify down the road? I don't mind paying something to support it, but if they go Adobe-level monthly subscriptions or something I'm gonna take hostages.
(Or, you know, go back to Vivaldi or Firefox.)
My favorite version of the large-group-stops-in-the-worst-spot is when they do that at the top (or bottom) of ESCALATORS. 🤦♂️
Just looked it up: 11 years.
I was very proud of "my" sub over there (sole active mod and most consistent poster). 11K+ subscribers and personally acknowledged by the author of a recent book on the subject of our sub.
Something died in me just before and during the blackout. I haven't posted anything over there since, and of the 11K subscribers, it's possible NONE of them followed my migration to the Fediverse where I set up an equivalent "official" sublemmy.
Once you know what you know (at least for some of us), it's just not the same participating in that space any longer.
I keep an eye on the place out of respect to...something. (I feel like I cleaned the place up nicely, and really raised the level of discourse.)
I guess I was naive in the extreme to think that at least a couple of hundred of the faithful would follow me over here? I don't do it for the numbers, but there is something gratifying watching your community grow.
At this writing, the new sub has double-digit followers! ;-P
$17 is almost 20% less than it will cost me to see OPPENHEIMER in 70mm IMAX. The former lasts a year, the latter 3 hours. Which will be more engaging? 🤔
