The same stuff happens on Twitter - some guy on the platform scaremongers about Twitter banning artists for making fanart of copyrighted characters, and people start copying and pasting the same exact disclaimer even though I am sure many of them know it doesn't work that way. And I don't think it's just "boomers".

Honestly not that bad if I want to use it for notetaking. But not as full-featured.

Do they have variable weight? Are they planning to add that? Because I'd really like that for quick sketching and doodling.

I think they're just pushing people to use OneNote (which is free).

It's like corrupting 8-bit games, isn't it?

1. It's copying and not stealing, and honestly current copyright law is stupid and broken
2. Decreasing the profits of big corporations like Hollywood movie studios is not immoral and shouldn't be illegal
3. There are some shows or movies I can't find in my country legally
4. With increased competition in the streaming market, it costs as much as a cable subscription to get all the content I used to be able to get from one streaming service

This is just word replacement of an existing article (forward = ahead, games = video games, passed (away) = handed, points = factors) done to avoid DMCA claims, whether it was done by AI or an algorithm is irrelevant. The AI was used to reword the article, and it's good at doing that, but why those words in particular were replaced is beyond my comprehension.

It seems like Reddit is dying faster. But it's just Elon's team being really good at hiding that using algorithms and our psychology.

Same with Twitter. Now you generally just stick to websites based on the communities you're in. The only monopoly left to crack now is YouTube.

I see you're a person of culture as well... I know this reference.

WordPad was a fast and efficient way to view doc files without loading into LibreOffice or any other office suite, or to make rich text documents quickly. But alas, we have to go to the cloud for our notes now...

In my country nobody (or at least, most people don't) buy their own routers, it's always a subscription on top of the existing internet service

Websites glitch out more often on Firefox. I had my favorite Mastodon instance not letting me scroll back up because of some weird jittering bug that only applies to Firefox for some reason.

Chrome is the only browser I actively avoid using on my PC or on mobile, simply due to Google tracking every website I visit

WTF? Until very, VERY recently it was a free extension. This shouldn't be allowed. But I understand that maintaining something as big as this requires a budget. What a shame. I only used it of a day and kinda ditched it afterwards, since it's not available on Revanced on mobile and I hoped it would be.

In our country, texting (through the built-in Messenger app) is mostly done as an emergency measure, as most people here use Meta's other messaging app, WhatsApp.

Or perhaps Web 3.1. But seriously, I would call it the Federated Web.

It's optional and only intended towards Premium users, but concerning nonetheless. This ID-gathering is probably not even regulated in a lot of countries - I haven't found any info on such regulation existing. And a migration is in fact happening - but it's more of just people being less interested in the new 'X' form of Twitter with all of its restrictions. That part of the cake is distributed between platforms like Mastodon/*key, Threads, Bluesky and Tumblr, not to mention Facebook still being a thing too.
