Yea, been having this BIGTIME. Even occurs on grayjay, and pipe apps (newpipe, etc.) Its aggravating. Can't even download vids either, and the ones u have downloaded are held ransom until u turn it off too 😂 at least in my case. Fuck google.

Sweet!

Lmaoo just managed to get mine

Tried installing the non flatpak version several times on arch but it won't work then earlier I decided to look up librewolf download arch cus of this meme to see what I can retry and apparently I was trying to compile its entirety instead of downloading it normally (the bin version)... Finally have it LoL.

:( agreed

I like dark souls :)

This is actually surreal ☠️

I hate it, my shitty xiaomi gives me a 10 second cooldown before letting me install one 😤

no fkn way.. he got shot at again???

meanwhile fediverse omegachads chilling on lemmy enjoying their time:

Fyi Spotify has been doing stuff like this for years, hire dirt cheap artists, make up a fake artist/band name, upload generic jingles and implant them on every single category playlist they can. Prime example are playlists for things that don't have too much complexity like lo-fi, calm piano, stuff like that. Disgusting. Edit: u can spot them out by digging thru some of the "artists", and when u find one with fishy profile try looking them up on other platforms. Millions of plays on Spotify but nearly nonexistent outside of it? That's a plant😂
