Ads aren't a good idea to begin with. I can't think of any other app in the Fediverse that has ads.

It's the Vimes boots scenario!

The price/membership is a ripoff.

The ads i see in apps are completely unrelated to sites I visit. There's currently an obnoxious blinking one in an app both my wife and I use. We get the same ads at the same time.

I'd rather we did not complete, thanks. I don't want 450 million people running riot posting right wing extremist crap.

A lot of newspapers don't do it anymore either.

It's still used for book titles, though.

Short, common words like "in" aren't capitalised

That only counts when you don't have money.

So you can run for president in prison but you can't vote when you're in prison or have been in prison.

Hey America, you suck.

There are areas in Asia where people have blond or red hair. I assume those kids have ancestors in those regions.

Of course it's jealousy because these people tend to look awesome.

I must admit, I have one account on Beehaw and one on Kbin and I go to Beehaw when I want to avoid reddit-like nonsense for a while.

A jackdaw is a corvid but not a crow. I am determined to continue Unidan's legacy.

Please stop posting the same thing in different communities. It was obnoxious on Reddit and it is obnoxious on here too.

And who do those corporations sell to?

It happened to my aunt. She was so traunatised that she got up in the middle of the night to check the cat was really dead.

It's cheaper to build identical cars than it is to add certain features to some and not to others.

Plenty of options for people with plenty of money.

I've seen a lot of websites do the same thing. Either allow cookies or pay

Strictly speaking, everyone is getting the shit end of the deal. Reddit Sync was 4 quid, one off payment.

Screw subscriptions. They're invariably a rip off and I'm not made of money.
