TRAITORAPIST TRUMP

There is no growth potential at all. They regularly bleed large numbers of users with their rando-bans, and the new user experience is so terrible that there is no reason any new person would ever want to use it.

I appealed it and it was lifted, but not before it was upgraded to a permanent ban for ban-evasion on other accounts (I’ve never had more than one account in my 14 years of reddit.)

Reddit has a feature where there helpfully link your account to stranger’s accounts. When the stranger is banned from any sub, you are too. But you don’t know you are banned from those subs. So when you innocently post, you get perma-banned.

Piefed sucks bigtime.

I always call it the Department of Government Enshitification

Yes! It is absolutely crucial that we do something like this. Treason Trump’s daily petty crap is designed to distract us from the serious crap. It is essential to have a way to track ALL the serious crap Treason Trump does. Thank You!

My general rule of thumb is that any software update has a 50% chance of making the software worse. So I don’t update anything without a good reason. That includes not just device updates but things like phone apps.

Urgent security fixes are gonna go unpatched

I don’t understand why a printer would ever need an “urgent security fix”. Or a software update for that matter.

Dotard Musk comes from a South African Afrikaner background. Those same people literally ran a white supremist government and jailed Nelson Mandela for decades.

Will there be meaningful software updates for your Kia EV6 in 2028? Absolutely not, no way.

I just got a new electric Kia and I don’t give the slightest shit about updates. In fact I would prefer no updates for fear it would make the great car I have worse. And no way in hell will I ever give Dotard Musk any of my money,

Whether the people at Google who did this knows they are evil or thinks they are not evil doesn’t really even matter. Having a phone app that automatically scans all your photos should scare the shit out of you. At the very least it wastes your battery and slows down your phone.

I hope you can see that, as an owner of a Android flip phone, it is annoying to see people use “flip phone” as a synonym for “dumb phone”. BTW not all dumb phones were flip phones, only the final wave of dumb phones generally were.

I can’t even go to a high school football game without having an app.

My Kia Sportage PHEV came with a “Kia Connect” app. There is a monthly charge but I get first 3 years for free. It’s got some sort of useful things but I don’t really use it much anymore. More likely than not I won’t bother to pay for it when the free years are up.

Hello McDonalds. My IQ is 500, so do I get like, free stuff or something?

I actually wrote my own text editor for the C-64

innocuous

Calling people “cultists” doesn’t sound very “innocuous”.

No way would I use that app.

Out of curiosity, how many flip phones have you used since 2007?

My current phone is a flip phone. A Samsung Galaxy Flip 5

Random User Agent.

I love this.
