Switched! I don’t have the time/willpower to heavily research this, and changing VPNs is easy compared to changing things like eMail or OS.

Especially easy with all these recommendations here.

Commenting so I remember to check this thread later. My Mullvad expires in 5 days.

Can always count on Lemmy to raise awareness on where to not spend money!

Would a genie intentionally find loopholes in wishes that were themselves mischievously malicious?

I ran from a site whose CEO spread malicious lies about 3rd party app developers while changing things to charge them so much fir API access that it was effectively a soft ban on said apps existing without saying they were banned in top-tier scumminess, all so they could force people onto their shitty stolen buggy ad-infested app to crank up their own numbers for their IPO at the expense of the community and devs that propped them up.

I don’t see this happening on Lemmy.

Whyyyy use Clippy for that first image lol. We’re supposed to be repurposing Clippy as the ANTI anti-consumer mascot!

Deleting the app did wonders for me. Well, Reddit deleted the app FOR me (Apollo user), and I refused to install their adware app onto my phone.

Forced me to only use it on PC, because visiting via phone browser showed like 3 comments on thread, then linked to some other thread, and insisted I install their adware for “a better experience”.

PC I was still browsing and occasionally commenting on old.reddit for a while, with uBlock on high censorship mode. But all my mobile browsing was gone.

… Suddenly I think I understand why a some things with very specific meanings are getting redefined by younger folks who call you names if you don’t accept their new definition.

I hate that it’s so on-brand for tbe US to target a school.

Replying from a Lemmy instance, via Thunder. Hello!

I had a several year streak until Loss got spammed everywhere.

Since people want you to see Loss, my brain links to “You lost The Game” thanks to the similarity between the words loss/lost.

So most of the time I don’t lose The Game from being mentioned itself, but I Loss The Game because of that other dumb meme.

I hate that our greatest hope is that the guy is 80 and has shit health.

Clearly the people aren’t going to actually do anything besides disapproving looks and politely asking him to stop ignoring the law and constitution.

Why bother. I’m here to lurk, post an occasional comment, and enjoy. Not to make a reputation or become visible.

Haven’t even looked into how. I think Lemmy is federated with some other types of fediverse styles, too? The interface I’m on doesn’t emphasise individual user pfps. I can see pfps but they’re tiny circles on my phone that I only notice if they’re pointed out.

Because I’m getting rid of the old shit!

I don’t keep up with instace drama too well and haven’t heard about lemmy.today. Mind filling me in? Just out of curiosity.

Bojack Horseman.

Except I canceled my Netflix.

Or the day they don’t vote against.

I knew it had relation to 42! I just got the how wrong!

Not a lemmy meme. It’s kids these days.

67 is my favorite current meme.

My understanding: It means the opposite of 42. And it gets funnier every time someone is baffled by it.

I lose the game every time someone shares a loss meme. I find that meme stupid so I happily share my loss of The Game to make everyone else suffer a loss with me!
