I thought the same thing, these guys had a lot of confidence in doing what they did. They must have had that confidence for a reason,. It also explains the appearance of not having an end plan, if they believed the next stage was not their part of the coup. The next part of the plan we may never actually learn but damn we need to find out where the government has been compromised.

This is the issue that's so hard to see until it is explicit like your example. The time wasted, not spent on things of value is where this type of trolling costs us the most. In world news there were well thought out answers to some asshole who was just giving low quality taunts

Egregious is the perfect word, I can only add that the adds are offensively stupid as well, and loud. I've been clicking back and forth until the content comes on but now it's three times at least. I'll install one of these ad blockers now but the real problem still isn't solved. I'd love to leave the platform altogether but don't know of an alternative. I tried PeerTube at one point but that was a dumpster fire , at least at the time I peeked in.

The other thing I hate about YT is the obvious click baiting the platform does, over the creators wishes. If I'm not clicking on any of the videos, the thumbnail images get weirder and crazier until I just leave the whole mess. Anyone else noticed this? It's like they are convinced this will gain more engagement and maybe it does but I hate it and feel manipulated and degraded by it.

Very same here. I delivered pizza in Atlanta in 1988 and shared a two bedroom on Piedmont park for a total of 550.00 month. I was so worried about making it too lol. Now as a person 30 years in my field and making fair money , I am paycheck to paycheck with little ability to save. To be fair, I've started over a couple of times , divorce etc. Starting over is expensive and takes a long leveling off but this economy is adding a lot of time on it.

People get news from meta? They should cancel all news access

12 years but honestly, I am glad the kerfuffle led me to Lemmy as well as other places I didn't know about. It seems there are many excellent alternatives who take the culture if their place seriously, which reddit never did. I get much more of a coffee shop discussion feel here.

Duly noted, seems like everyone but me knew this! Growing up in the south , barefoot is very natural. I've done tons of stuff barefoot. However, once I've learned this, it will no longer be a pleasure I'll take part in. Glad you wrote that out because it's not something they put in the papers, so to say. It's damn sure not going to be shared by many people who like to live with their head up there ass so here I am, thank you!
