Exactly. I read the headline and was like: no, that's what corporations want - for you to sacrifice pay or something else so they don't lose out.

Most corps have posted record profits these past few years - they can afford to let their workers work a day less without reducing their pay, they just don't want to admit it.

This is exactly why I've never played a Monster Hunter game, despite how fun it looks.

I don't want to hunt the monster, I want to be the monster. Or at least befriend it and help take down the rude humans constantly trying to stab it.

If you're coming over from reddit, try https://sub.rehab/

It lists most of the popular subs and their fediverse equivalents. E.g. the community you're looking for sounds like Reddit's r/showerthoughts, which has

https://kbin.social/m/showerthoughts

https://lemmy.world/c/showerthoughts

https://squabbles.io/s/showerthoughts

communities in the fediverse.

Even if you haven't used reddit, a lot of the sub names are pretty self-explanatory apart from some of the cryptic/memey named ones.

I’m a few months, there will be at least a 50% chance that comment or post you are replying to is a bot.

It already feels this way. A lot of them are the most basic comments or don't make any sense at all.

While logged in, go to your settings (hamburger menu in top right > drop-down arrow on your profile name > settings) and there's a second tab called "Blocks" - can you undo it from there?

And the IPO itself is a bad sign no matter who's in charge. It means the company will be shareholder-driven, and so aiming for maximum profit (or just straight up not operating at a loss to start with). Line must always go up, so when things start to stagnate, or they reach saturation, more and more bold anti-consumer decisions will be made to extract higher profits. See Netflix and their crackdown on password-sharing.

It may not happen straight away, but it will eventually.
