This is the reason I've never used discord outside voice chatting with friends a few times per month.
A basic photo from my phone is over the file size limit. It's essentially unusable, and I'm not going to get me and my friends and family to all pay a subscription for a feature literally every other chat app provides for free. Sorry.
This just in, American realises no one outside of America actually likes America!
You think you're all that and a bag of chips, but quite frankly the rest of the world is laughing at you and doesn't want anything to do with you.
When you're faced with that, you call everyone a "tankie". Almost like people can hate both America and China. Both countries are dog shit.
Reddit was full of Digg comments for a while.
Imgur was full of Reddit comments for a while (when Imgur decided to become their own social platform).
Lemmy is going to be full of Reddit comments for a while.
Nah. Don't feel like being caught up in one of the 15 mass shootings per day where the government will try to brush it off and blame it on trans people.
I may be dirt poor in Canada, but at least my trans neighbour and I are both safe when we leave our places.
One thing I don't understand is why would meta even federate with anyone outside of their own instances anyway?
Makes no sense to ever open up to allow any other instances in. Not like they are crying for users.
The fediverse just makes sense in their own bubble. Turn Facebook, Instagram, and their other apps into the fediverse and federate them all together.
I don't expect them to ever open up to the actual fediverse. Same with BlueSky. I feel like all of these companies will USE the fediverse but in a closed bubble.
I'm not a lemmygrad user. I'm simply stating facts?
There's literally many recent news articles of Canadians getting in legal trouble from American companies because of the things they posted or things they downloaded.
The Canadian government isn't handing me over to China or allowing China to come get me.
My comment is not even pro China. I'm just saying that nothing I say or do will allow China to put me in jail. Can't say the same about America.
You should learn to read. I would prefer no one get my data, but it's statistically safer for me for China to get it over an American company. However, no one should get it. Fuck shit American companies, fuck shit Chinese companies.
It's worse for the US to have my data as a Canadian than China. America can come for me, and my country would hand me over. China can't do shit to me.
When a trans person is on a beer can:
When an elementary school is shot up for the 5th time this week by a gunman:
Americans when Canadians say they'd prefer TikTok spying vs an American company:
but seriously. I want no one to have my data, but if someone HAD to have it, I would prefer TikTok over anything from Meta, Amazon, Microsoft, etc..
My country wont export me to China if I post something negative or pirate something. My country will export me to the US if they come banging on my door. I am quite literally safer letting China have a bit of my data.
I may be weird, but I hate my WearOS devices. I highly prefer a Mi Band.
It gives me all of the same info my WearOS watch does (heart rate, spo2, sleep tracking, steps, app notifications, timers, alarms, phone call alerts, weather, etc) but is a more comfortable compact package, and the battery lasts 5+ days vs 18-25 hours. Not to mention the price is usually 5-15x cheaper.
I know I'm a minority, but I genuinely don't understand why people want a WearOS watch?
Redditors already scream at people when they get a downvote and blame it on the person that replies to them, even if that person didn't downvote them.
I can see this being dangerous and leading to a lot of bullying. I know k-bin already publicly shows this. I can see who downvotes my comments/posts when I open up the post in a k-bin instance, without even being a member.
When did they start this? Because I last tried a few months ago to send a photo and it was telling me it was too large, and to buy nitro. It was ~8.6MB
