I'm surprised it took this long

This is one of the biggest issues with Lemmy right now.

I'm gonna keep holding out cause I hope that Lemmy will have improvements like sorting algorithms and mod tools and such, users have stabilized.

If the users keep going down I might have to go back to Reddit, a man can only laugh at the same Linux meme so many times.

I mean we have other studies that show kids who play video games usually are better at problem solving and fine motor controls.

Could be like you said, bad parents. Could also be that the content developed for mobile is somewhat mind numbing by design, most games are idle or just geared towards ads/in game purchases instead of game content. Apps tend to be easier to use and navigate as well.

Technology is obviously a powerful tool for both good and bad.

I specifically remember them announcing quarterly profits from YouTube in alphabets breakdown a few years back, they are almost definitely profitable, I'm okay with being proven otherwise but as far as I know YouTube is profitable now.

YouTube has definitely been profitable for many years dude, I don't know what your on about.

Canada has had more forests burn this year than the past 3 combined AFAIK and it seems to just be getting worse..

I'm in my early 20s and I'm scared the planet will die before I'm 40 at this rate

They were able to build a business and be profitable for over a decade but now all of the sudden ad block is destroying YouTube? 🤔

Thank you for saying exactly what I was thinking. If they painted it and changed those ugly ass cupboards it wouldn't be a bad kitchen.

I respect that standpoint, but I'm having porkchops for lunch. I would definitely kill an animal to extend my own life I do it without needing to every time I eat meat.

I do very much respect your stance on that though, if you choose not to harm animals for selfish reasons that's noble, but you can't expect that of others.

At the end of the day we are animals too, and the animal kingdom is fucking cruel.

Yeah then use a VPN for your endpoint connection, route your traffic through a self hosted proxy server and use that to mask hardware details. Then create a dummy account, boom.

Btw they get your IP, Device details and location just from you even opening the instagram link on your phone whether you sign in or not.

I mean if you care that much about privacy just don't even connect to any of Facebook's DNS servers in the first place, or if you're that thirsty set it up properly or stop caring.
