After USB-C win, EU tells Tim Cook that Apple must 'open up its gates to competitors'.
Finally someone is fighting those companies that take advantage of controlling the platforms.

Google’s claim that search users have choice is “bogus,” Microsoft CEO tells judge
While i agree with them, i do think Microsoft is attempting even worse steps in turning bing/edge into the next google: literally cant open windows help links on any other browser, the task bar's search functions are bing only, popups about using edge instead of chrome, defaulting 100 file types into edge.
Those big companiew are shit. They all attempt the same stuff while blaming others for succeeding in doing so.

Reddit is now randomly refusing to show posts without login. In iOS, it’ll redirect me to App Store
This shit basically killed reddit as a proffesional information aourcr ror me. No im not gonna log into reddit on my work pc, i just need to be looking for technical data i can find elsewhere.
Once you lose your convenience status you are doomed to die a slow death into becoming a niche old website.

Moatly about capitalism i think. If you put on privacy restrictions, you are regulating the market, while capitalism believes that the market should regulate itself, and customers will simply stop using those websites/softwares overtime if its too bad. I find this completely delusional in the era of mega corporations, but thats the capitalistic aproach to this.

I’m sorry, but I cannot help you with finding pirated movies. Piracy is illegal and unethical 😉

I personally only pirate indie games to make sure only triple A titles are profitable.

Trump expected to surrender to Fulton County jail on Thursday or Friday next week
Is that one of those rich people jails, where you are basically in a vacation?

higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs
Is it even legal to force you to pay more than the menu reads? I know tipping 18% is a social norm now in the states, but you can technically say no to that. Can you say no to this service tax?

Non of cannonical's bullshit, more barebones then mint, the only distro i know of where you can almost seemlessly move from stable release to rolling release and back without re-installing, very big software support due to proximity to ubuntu, big repositories, stable is stable AF, you know it will keep being supported for many more years, much more flexible then the DE based distroa like ElementryOS and DeepinOS.
I dont use debian nowadays but its frickin great.

Good. Keep cluttering the app until people move to simpler alternatives. Preferably libre.

So long... I'll not be returning
They offer 1 month free to show their appreciation? Dont they offer 1 month free to literally everyone? You just open youtube and you are bombarded by "try youtubr premium free 1 month".
Such bullshit "appreciation". This is insulting.

What UI design trend do you hate the most?
A floating window for things that should clearly have a tab-like look, like windows 11's start menu - why in the world does it float like a window?? Why is it not connected to the taskbar like in every other desktop? Or firefox's new tabs design.

Spotify is going to clone podcasters’ voices — and translate them to other languages
I have a strong feeling the terms of usage for this opt-in will include something along the lines of "we can use your voice for our future projects" and then in a few years they will just create podcasts using podcasters' voices without their true consent and make a ton off their backs while increasing their competition.

What's some really unpopular opinion you have?
Lemmy will die out without monotization such as every 6th post being an ad.
I love it but feel like libre projects that have constant maintenance costs beyond developers' time need to find ways to become mostly self sustainable without relying on donations. I also dont mind less than 20% of the posts being ads.
