I hope so too, twitter is awful.

It is pretty obvious why they are doing this though, but it also means you don't own them, you are renting them.

DRM removal from Kindles from 2024 doesn't seem to work, that is why they are removing it.

It is very easy to remove DRM from kindle Books, but since you will not be avle to download them it will not be possible anymore.

They do have other ways such as SMS if it is critical, but most people simply share the twitter link via WhatsApp and you can be more updated by using twitter. Most people haven't moved to Bluesky or Mastodon, so if there is flooding or heavy rain most people will share updates on their location via twitter and WhatsApp like for example flooded streets.

I don't think it is a good idea to block twitter completely. Some countries use twitter for official announcements, including emergency warning.

I would recommend this channel https://youtube.com/@moddedwarfare.

It keeps getting reposted, it was on mildly infuriating. I am pretty sure I saw it on reddit too. The text chnages every time though.

I don't think reposting is bad though, as long as sufficient time is given, it is fine to repost. I think this might be the first time on shitpost though.

This was posted before on mildly infuriating, Lemmy is becoming like reddit.

From my experience they almsot never reply, it is better to make a new account using vpn rather than trying to get unbanned.

A good example is the Usenet community, in Lemmy there is barely any activity, on reddit people post at least once a week.

I had multiple accounts suddenly they all got system error, which in Reddit means you are banned. They couldn't be bothered to implement a notification system to inform the users they were banned.

In Patreon, the users are selling their content, in this case Reddit is paywalling user content without paying the users.

What did you guys do, confess?

I found more help in stack overflow for windows related issues compared to Microsoft.

Or just move to a a console, the quality might not be the same, but it is way cheaper. This is one of the reasons people by consoles, they are cheaper and the games are optimized for it.

Elijah McClain:

Randy Roedema, an Aurora police officer at the time, was sentenced to 14 months in a county jail. Jeremy Cooper, the paramedic working with Mr. Cichuniec, was sentenced to four years of probation with 14 months of work-release.

Strangely courts care more about dogs than humans, let us not forget about war crimes committed by soldiers and they don't get any punishment example My Lai massacre.

Wow, seriously why are they using bitcoin? XMR is untraceable, why use a traceable currency?

As long as doesn't host manga or anime itself, it is legal, for example Invidious and Newpipe for youtube. What was the reason stated for the DCMA request?
