I agree with the text and I think the author got most things right. For the last part, while I see that it diverged from enshittification, it can also be, well, descriptions we used before. Bluesky sounds like the good old tactics of selling customers unnecessary features they don't need nor want. I'm pretty sure that's how they'll get away with it. I also see the whole crypto be shoehorned into the platform as purely optional and "oh look, for using Bluesky and not the competition, you got free crypto" and then design it in such a way that only poweruser have any real benefit from the crypto. Free money. However I see no benefit in Bluesky and will just stay on Lemmy, that's the whole point of the Fediverse.

It's also a lot of bots. They are here too. For example, just say China plus something negative about them, ~~in a thread about China~~. Easiest downvoted one can get. Make sure it's a fact and not whataboutism, to avoid contaminating the test.

No, your reasoning, understanding of a topic and way of talking is just dumb. Get rid if that paranoia of everyone bullying you. Don't go into threads of your political opposite and then be surprised to get flogged. Don't brush of everyone disagreeing with you as "they are all the same and equally bad". Stop ignoring authoritarian abusing power and wake up from you fantasy dream world where you believe this doesn't happen. Once you've given up some of your rights, it's really hard to get them back. No one is defending pedo platforms, it's about our lifes and knowledge that these surveillance tools will fuck up normal people. It just takes one stupid vote to get the fascists into power and a whole country can move into a dictatorship. If you fail to see this, your very naiv and need to study more history content.

You're not wrong in criticizing the US, people who look at them objectively should obviously see the many flaws. But as with guns , the US is very patriotic and it's difficult to argue against. But getting someone to realize and fix their own bias is another difficult topic.

Picard is destroying, it doesn't add. It should've never been made.

Thanks. I'll check it out.

I'm really amazed by their consistent win11 patch fuckups. I've never seen it in this dimension with win10. Luckily I'm still on win10 and pretty sure I'll get the updates past 2025 somehow.

Gaming used to not be like that, but now a good GPU alone costs 800 to 2500 bucks. Sure you get away with cheaper components but at what cost, you got to be patient gamer to enjoy this endeavor.

Rumors say they are already dead.

Depends. Are the aliens hot?

I'd want to put this in front of the house. No one would steel it ever. lol

That's when they finally get me.
