Real! Getting reminded to join LinkedIn Premium is honestly one of the reasons that’s so annoying about the platform tbh.

I agree it’s a complete scam tbh esp as you’re forced to pay for cloud backup as well. I was given the membership via friends, hence why I haven’t paid it so far, though have been guilty of buying games from them but what Nintendo is doing now is honestly inexcusable at this point, despite many other times they fucked up before and haven’t done shit to solve it. Instead, criminalising those for archiving their games.

Time to boycott Nintendo Online and Nintendo in general for doing so many Ls as of late

With all the changes that Reddit has made recently esp with the API changes, it definitely did leave salt in my mouth alongside how increasing toxic the Reddit community had become in comparison to when I joined the community but the small niche communities that existed on Reddit did honestly made it harder to quit due to the lack of communities outside, which is another big problem with centralisation, esp in the modern internet as it makes you rely on platforms you may not necessarily like due to big issues like social isolation etc.

When I found out about this, this isn’t simply excusable anymore and I would rather delete my account over having my personal data being sold for profit (which goes completely against the early ethos of Reddit as a whole but being semi owned by Conde Nast, this would have been inevitable) despite the fact that I have been thinking about deleting my Reddit profile way before this issue.

Surprisingly, I honestly have had no regrets deleting Reddit out of my life and honestly I do wish I would have done it sooner, I’m far less frustrated, I’m starting to think more constructively again and I feel way way less dependent on it.

Can say, I made a good choice there tbh.

I just love the Kirby game series cuz it’s really cute but I also love Kirby himself as well at it being a reference to Kirbo from TerminalMontage, who I also equally love as is one of my fave YouTubers.

808 is a reference to the Roland TR-808 drum machine, referencing to many of my favourite electronic/alternative/hip hop musicians that have used it.

Also I love being cringe too so there’s that too xD

Just like boycotts, you need to have many many people joining and supporting the cause to actually make an impact within the world and the community, otherwise it’s not very impactful and govs could easily do any to prevent it from happening aka silencing ppl.

Though that saying, ppl shouldn’t be made to feel guilty for not doing so, if certain circumstances prevent them to do so eg disability, addiction, lack of options etc etc cuz unfortunately in the world we live in today, capitalism plays a huge part in our society today, therefore there’s is no “truly” ethical consumption in the world we are in today.

Signal was very slow to putting this out icl but at least it’s an option now, which is better than none at all, though sucks you still got to put your number in it though to use it.

Anything better than Telegram (which is has no E2EE via DMs by default) and WhatsApp (which is owned by Facebook) is good step in my eyes despite Signals flaws, cuz we honestly need less big tech controlling our media consumption in our world today.

So you’re defending a country, that’s been committing a genocide on innocent Palestinians civilians for generations?

Yeah I can’t really sympathise with you on that sorry.

Supporting human rights ≠ antisemitism

I understand your frustration with not being to freely express your thoughts and how hostile ppl can be about the situation but unfortunately that’s just life on the internet sadly.

You should really educate on yourself on the whole situation cuz in actual reality, there is no good guys (cuz we can all agree that Hamas are not good ppl either and they do not represent the Palestinians people so don’t blame for them for something Hamas did) in this situation and the ppl that are affected the most are the Palestinians and the Israelis, since at the moment I’m writing this, more families and children are dying by the second and since Israel is a very nationalistic society, a lot of the citizens are sadly brainwashed into thinking the Palestinians are “second class citizens” which completely shows how much influence Israel as a country and politically, it has an influence on ppl internationally and nationally too.

Please actually educate yourself about the whole situation before making posts like this cuz it makes ppl who actually care about this to look like we’re antisemitic when that’s far from the case and it frustrates me when ppl just assume that cuz it literally doesn’t help anyone that is actually trying to help spread awareness about this and this causes further division within ppl, which is not what we need when fighting for human rights as this prevents political progress, which is the last thing Palestinians need.

Not really surprised about the irony considering the UK gov was willing to ban encryption and apps like Signal, just so they could further spy on us.
