That's a fair question.

Usually not much, so I have too started to log in far less frequently. However, as an example, I did get in touch once again with an old friend thanks to it (and we are still in touch), so it did help quite a bit in that regard. But I understand your point and I have been thinking about leaving the platform anyway due to all the privacy shitshow.

It's not the same and you know it. I have the same issue with Instagram. Many of our interactions through the platform come from us reacting to each other's content (posts, stories, comments). Without that you lose a lot of "spontaneous" interaction.

We are not equating "communists" with fascism, we are equating authoritarian communists with fascism. They are both as bad because they are both authoritarian regimes that are based around opressing the people.

And holicaust trivialization? Didn't the URSS kill a shit ton of people as well? Isn't China commiting crimes against humanity as well?

Rather than edgy, they are straight up tankies (aka, russia and URSS apologists)

Because religion is still the brainwashing machine that set it in motion.

Saying that it's all because religion and not blaming the father is stupid, but so is ignoring the importance of religion as a control tool.

Or children starving because they have to pay for shitty food at school, or children starving and having a bad life because their parents can't afford to pay for more even if they already work, or children at orphanages...

Yeah, much like with forbidding abortion (but then never caring whether the no longer-aborted child will have a proper home to live), children are just a political tool.

I have no DnD experience, but I do have DOS2 experience, so as long as I manage to make things go "bang" and send someone flying out of a window, it is fine by me. Said so, after +100h in, I already know how most of the stuff works, even if I don't really try to use it. After all, there's nothing that can't be solved by using three Call Lightning spells of my Storm Sorcerer on the same turn.

But yeah, for someone who doesn't understand shit but also tries to understand it, it must be overwhelming.

It's not just about having permission or not, but the right to be forgotten. You can ask a company to delete the personal data they may have on you and by law they should (in theory) delete it, with the only exception being data that may be required for justified purposes.

AIs not being able to "forget" means that they would be breaking the law if trained with personal data, as you could not have your data removed if you ask them to do so.

It's funny seeing the replies to your comment crying about "not brigading" but then the vast majority of the comments in this post come from hexbear users commenting tankie shit

I mean, almost complete disappearance of smaller phones is kinda puzzling?

Yeah, my bad there, I understood the previous comment as somewhat of a "Well I don't understand how people can like big phones".

My guess is, as with many other things, corporations pushed towards a certain thing (big phones in this case) enough to make it the default and then the bigger audience just stopped caring as a result.

It is interesting indeed, but I guess that's just it, aside from the obvious fact that the bigger the space, the easier is to design stuff (my previous comment + better heat dissipation + more space for cameras), so probably a mixture of all of these things together and a couple more.

People want big phones for some reason

Bigger battery, better for content consumption and overall usage if you use it frequently. It's not that weird, yet you treat it as if we were talking about aliens.
