Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! āœˆļø


An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! šŸ‡µšŸ‡­


Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

That's one way to resolve things, buying YT Premium and being left at peace. While I respect that, part of me thinks that it is giving in to the pressure, that what Google wants is for people to give in. Thus, even if I do have the money for it, I don't think I would as a matter of principle.

What that principle is, I guess at this point, Iā€Œ'd admit that I am just pretty much against what Google symbolizes--big tech swallowing up everything. And by refusing to give in and buying YT Premium, I feel like I am resisting and protecting whatever few principles I've got left.

It helps that I'm not paying. Nakisakay lang ako since you can have up to 4 profiles. šŸ˜„
