you are aware that other people live different lives to you, and do things differently right? I listen to music to fall asleep, and I plug my phone into my car via the 3.5mm jack to listen to music. You ask how often it would be a problem? It would be a problem every single day

Why would I use other platforms?

Is it vegan? Or is it chicken? Looks delicious either way

If nobody had kids and the human race died out, earth could repair itself. The only reason earth is so fucked is because of the humans.

You not having kids is literally the best thing you could possibly do for the planet

"pretty small", it's like 2 Canada's.

Might be a cultural thing, but after googling what a camp collar is, to me that screams "mum dresses me" far more than a plain black t-shirt

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but if a product can only exist if it's consumer-unfriendly, perhaps it shouldn't exist at all.

Sure wireless earphones can be convenient, but the extra e-waste, the non replaceable batteries, the Bluetooth transceivers, the DACs used (while the device you're streaming from almost certainly already has these things) is super wasteful.

I think if we have any chance as a society, we need to start thinking about the products we use and how they are produced and how much waste they create, instead of just how convenient they are at the time.

I mean, that's like saying a bodybuilder is developing muscles a lot better than a baby. You're right but that bar is so incredibly low it may as well not even exist

Everything in moderation. Have pizza, but limit yourself to 2 slices, have a big delicious salad with it (no creamy dressing). Small treats like this is what makes a diet sustainable.

I started running to lose some weight recently. And I genuinely enjoy it.

It's alone time, time to think, or listen to an album or podcast and just be alone.

I enjoy the progress I'm seeing. Every week I can run further than I could the last week, every week gets easier and faster, and beating my pb is a real endorphin rush. Every week I weigh less than I did the previous week.

I enjoy feeling proud of myself. It would be so easy to sit on the couch and watch Netflix. Or play a silly little video game. And that's what most people do. I enjoy not being most people. I enjoy putting in the work to better myself.

I enjoy pushing myself. When my legs burn and I don't think I can run anymore, but I push through that and run another kilometer. the runners high is real. Not comparable to a fun drug, but still feels good.

So yeah, I'm not a fitness guy, but working out definitely has it's place and can be enjoyable

Don't let the door hit you on your way out

It definitely is a good choice for some people, I wouldn't give my mother in law an Android device.

But the iphone as a platform is inferior because it can do less (although Android is definitely headed in a similar direction)

You know those Irwin quick clamps that are very popular, blue and yellow quick release clamps. I have a bunch of them and they're fine.

I also have a bunch of "craftright" clamps. Same thing, but the clamping force feels so much higher, the Irwin clamps are what I use if I've run out of my cheap knockoff clamps

these platforms have the know how to deal with spam and they will be incentivised to share that tech with other federated instances.

Based on what? These private companies aren't going to share anything because they owe it to their shareholders not to.

I dont think any of your points are wrong, it's just the association with Facebook people are anti. The fediverse has a great reputation for being completely removed from profit motive driven mega corporations. Facebook joining is gonna make people question the fediverse is my understanding.

Australian here, never met anyone who boils tap water before drinking it. Some people have filtered water taps installed but our tap water is usually pretty great, I drink probably 2-3 litres of it a day
