Coming to you soon...

I actually didn't care when there was an ad in the beginning of the video or what not. It was when I had to start watching multiple ads in the middle of a 10 minute video as well. Like come on, not even broadcast TV is that annoying.

Namecheap ups its prices 9% for .com and .xyz this fall.

https://domainnamewire.com/2023/02/09/verisign-announces-another-com-price-hike-2/

Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) today announced a 7% increase in .com prices to take effect on September 1, 2023.

...

Under its agreement with ICANN and the U.S. government, Verisign is allowed to increase prices by 7% per year in the last four years of every six-year contract term. This will be the third hike of this contract term, and the company is expected to increase .com prices to $10.26 in 2024.

Would be nice if ICANN changed the agreement a tad .

Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content?

The thing with reddit is that it loaded with stuff that is easily searched for on search engines. I know if I search for something, i'll be ending up at the big R. I have been going out of my way asking relevant questions on Lemmy communities instead of using a search engine (much to the annoyance of the 'Did you do a search first?' crew) I'm hoping this helps build communities here.
