Perfect example of continual enshitification, there's no reason even a 15s "short" or other quick media couldn't have video controls, it's just intentional because some dogshit behavioural phycologist they've paid said that's the best way to coerce more engagement.

I get there's a heap of people on here who've somehow never seen these new anti-popup measures before, but they're definitely becoming more prevalent.

I switched to uBlock and purged the caches and it seems to have fixed the issue (for now anyway)

At some point I'll have to find a more permanent solution like switching browsers but right now things are working

Finally some feel good news for a change

Take every single day you're entitled to. The days of working yourself to death so you get a pat on the back by the boss is well over. You come first

She'll always have the legacy that she was too mentally incompetent to know when it's time to retire and let the next generation take over. Worked herself to death and for what exactly

People generally will fairly buy content when it's available and fairly priced if they want to support the creators. There's a huge difference between wanting to help your favorite content producer VS companies that fart out mult-hundred dollar box sets of old content

Back when you could actually have funny ads and not worry about people whinging about it online

Who didn't see this coming? Kill all good third party apps and funnel everyone into their dogshit, undercooked app and then leverage every metric and interaction for advertising

Imagine you go to court and this fossil at 96 is the one who determines your fate. Imagine if you catch her on an off day and she thinks you stole her computer, her files or other nonsense she's accused court staff of doing (the only thing that's been stolen is her marbles, and it looks like they went a few years back)

Get these shocking people out of the courts and into the nursing home where they belong

I'm sure they'll find plenty of top tier new engineers who will take a position at Grindr instead of literally any other job that offers full time WFH support 🙄

Wonder which executive got annoyed that they went into the office, they noticed no one else was suffering in-office with them and this is the outcome.

Sounds like if they had no good faith intention of even testing the water block they should have done the morally correct thing and told billet they're not going to review it. But doing that when they've already looked at it would be a waste of content yeah and they want a return on every dollar and second spent.

Cheers for the good work guys
