Well said. It’s easy to say “let that shithole burn” for me, as a person who just used it for entertainment and mild education. But there are integral support communities that I hate seeing suffer.

I don’t think I’d be able to do my boring office job without regular water access. It’s purely madness to expect someone to do a physical job without as much water as one needs.

Honestly during the day I personally find light mode easier to read. I understand this seems uncommon but the contrast “feels” better. I use the “True Tone” on iPhone though which makes the whites not so stark and blinding.

I believe Reddit did not provide their ads through the API (aka the ones integrated into the feeds), but some apps still had generic app ads (like the little banner ones provided by Google AdSense glued at the bottom of the app).

That’s really scummy of Stitcher. Wow.

And I totally get the anti IHR monopoly thing!

Thank you for explaining your feelings. :)

May I ask why? I never used Stitcher but a few podcasts I listen to had premium on it. And why do you dislike IHR? Several podcasts I listen to are IHR productions. :(

I much prefer kbin to lemmy so I really appreciate you putting in the effort! I put myself on the alpha list and I look forward to it. :)
