capping rents to the mortgage means you can only rent out a property at a loss, because you can’t recoup repairs, maintenance, utilities, vacancy, or administrative fees through rent. this effectively makes being a landlord illegal, which you’d might as well do outright if that’s the objective.

you can’t get a real discussion of crypto here because downvotes are impossible and the simps are legion

reddit is the means of production, but all of the value produced comes from the users, who are unremunerated

well maybe not - if we move to not-for-profit platforms, there’s no enshittification cycle.

i kind of want reddit to die now. people talking to one another shouldn’t be monetized or debased through some spyware algorithm run by antisocial dickheads.

i think the idiocy is still dangerous, insofar as it continues to politicize the use of masks, which will exacerbate future pandemics/flu seasons/etc.

yo yo! i've been waiting for a FOSS reddit since forever. i'm hoping this gets traction!
