Yes that’s true. This format is great for quality posts and discussions.

Did you copy/paste this from GPT as a joke?

(if not, please receive this compliment that your writing is extremely clear and decisive).

That's true.

Lyft and Uber are taking advantage of both:

• the drivers (who are sub-contracted, legally-unassisted, and underpaid)
• and the passengers (surge pricing).

Even worse - those companies SEEK to replace drivers with self-driving vehicles. They will terminate their entire sub-contracted workforce (the drivers... the people who do the actual work), without obligation.

This has been their goal from the start.

Although... in youtube's greedy, ad-spamming opinion - those apps are certainly infamous.

But I do see why those apps don't count... as, from our standpoint, they are purely simple, awesome, and free. (and they really are)

Do you consider lemmy (this post) to be a micro-blog?

Or are you referring to other federated platforms?

This is my favorite one so far. It's perfect.

Animals are better at running, swimming, and playing piano.

Plants are better at blossoming and photosynthesis.

The classic ==> its evolution...

• Tokyo Xtreme Racer Zero ==> Burnout Paradise

• Phantasy Star Online ==> Borderlands 2 (online co-op)

• Perfect Dark ==> Battlefield 3 (online multiplayer)

cool question georgy :)

Hey Zaggy,

When you say - "lemmy instance now runs", what do you mean?

• You see the Lemmy UI?
• Or it's just showing activity in the docker logs?

[when I visit lemmy.zaggy.nl - I get nginx 403 Forbidden (maybe because you're testing something right now)]

Let me de-clickbait this article for you...

It should be called:

“Things I personally dislike about the fediverse (which is alive)”

...on many occasions - that article disagrees with itself.

Nice, that is a good feeling.

I love you too.
