  • Not sure where you got that people were threatened by your comment. If it has to do with your score, it's because it's a very narrow view, context had nothing to do with it. You shared your opinion I shared mine. Saying people feel threatened or that we didn't understand the context because we didnt agree is exactly the point I'm making when it feels like you are a young person trying to pass for an older one.

  • It's not about the adds, it's about personalized data collection and selling it to whoever wants it. It has nothing to do with seeing adds or if they are personalized to you. Say you are someone with an addiction problem and come here to talk about it, or seek help/guidance. Do you want that being sold to whoever pays a few bucks.

    What about a woman who had a miscarriage, or was raped and had to get an abortion. That data on you is now being sold and not just as a general data point of we have X many people on this sub or w.e. It's RampageDon had an abortion and has been on this sub for X minutes making X posts a day. Ublock isn't stopping that or the revenue they will get selling it.

  • Policy updated yesterday where you can't opt out of data farming. They are openly stating that they are selling targeted data about every link you click on, sub you subscribe to, anything you up and down vote. Not that I don't think they weren't doing this in some fashion already, but the option isn't even there anymore. They aren't trying to hide it and are basically gaslighting people and trying to tell them it's actually a good thing you can't opt out.

  • Just an fyi Webster definition of evangelism: the winning or reawakening of personal commitments to Jesus. The google definition: the spreading of the Christian gospel by public preaching or personal witness.

    You might not have meant it like that, but I assume most people will take it at face value of those definitions.

  • Check out Pop goes X. There's a bunch of different ones, punk, rock, etc. Wouldn't be surprised if there was a metal or some varient already. It's an album of bands from X category doing covers of pop songs.

  • Not OP but the issue isn't creating the space, but creating content in that space. Growing a community is a lot of work. Unless you already have some strong engagement and or a few people creating content it's really just up to you to keep making post until the community gets more traction. Most people like the idea of starting the new community but not the work it requires as it often just feels like yelling into the void.
