  • Kinda like the Sackler’s and opioids, innit?

    • Cory Doctorow: Kickstarting a book to end enshittification, because Amazon will not carry it

    Jump

  • Amazon requires DRM, which Doctorow considers anathema. Since the author won’t allow DRM on his works, Amazon refuses to sell them.

    In fact, the author, in order to be found in Audible search results, penned an essay explaining how Audible rips off writers and readers. It's called "Why None of My Audiobooks Are For Sale on Audible".

    • Can I remove this pipe coming out of my lawn?

    Jump

    The pipe is likely a vent, but for gas to get in, or gases to get out, is the question.

  • Do you contract for maintenance? Talk to them.

    If you don’t, and someone has been out, maybe you got their name, or company?

    Reaching out to someone who’s worked on the system could save you a bundle in the long run.

  • Hunter and his foibles will be the political punching of record for the duration.

    • What non-technical criticisms do you have of the Lemmy/kbin/link aggregator fediverse experience?

    Jump

  • Joined on one instance, it went away, had to create a new account on this instance.

    Finding communities and content has been challenging, at least Memmy has the number of subscribers front and center when searching.

    Content depth could be better.

    These are also, IMO, growing pains that will resolve over time

  • Annoyingly lean on facts, but plenty of speculation.

    • Google tries to defend its Web Environment Integrity

    Jump

  • Funny how services that used to work transparently, no longer do.
