I heard it from someone (not me) that they've been using a modded spotify app downloaded from apkmody.io for more than a year now and it's basically free spotify premium. They (again, not me) say its pretty damn good, unbelievably good actually. They (NOT me) are pretty happy with it.

Yeah, delete your account too.

Pro-tip: don't make the same mistake that I did. Before deleting your account use one of those tools to mass-edit all of your comments (forgot what the tool were called tho), replace the text with either a dot or with something like "user has moved on to X social network", the less content reddit has the better. Why? Because fuck em, that's why.

I wish I thought about this before deleting my account

Thank you, you put in words my thoughts exactly. Not all communities need to have the same rules as the others, not all need to be as open as others and that is more than fine.
Homogenization of the internet led us to a handful of corporations dominating social media websites and that is awful.

Sorry, I don't tend to value the "opinions" of employees of a Islamist theocracy that beats, rapes and kills people because they show too much keratin and that displeases their mass-murdering pedo-god.
But, by all means, if women beaters are your preferred crowd, you're free to roleplay as their western keyboard warrior.

That being said, feel free next time to also address the content of my comment, not just do some cheap ad hominem attacks.
I look forward to watching more of your ilk squirm and squeal as Ukrainians liberate more and more land from imperialist, genocidal Russian invaders.

Kisses.

fr, fr. Every time I see an entire different instance I can't help but go "Awww, look at them have their own lil discussion/drama over there, how cute" and the fact that I can also interact with them makes it even more adorable.

1st of all, Presstv.ir is Iranian state tv, so LOL, LMAO even.
2nd of all, no

The long-awaited Ukrainian counter-offensive is now finally here - though it does not seem to be very successful
However, instead of penetrating past the Russian defenses, Ukraine has been struggling.
Nearly a week into the counter-offensive, only minuscule gains have been made
Not only is it a military defeat for Ukraine, but it is a marketing catastrophe for NATO.

Ever since he counteroffensive began Putin and his ilk have been squealing like rabid little rats, trying their best to demoralize Ukraine and Ukraine's partners.
That'd be Uncle Vova's wettest dream, that's what he hopes for right now, to hold on until Ukraine's partners start to give up on their support.
Ain't gonna happen, you slimy little rats.

Sorry, this is wrong. Programmers are not femboys, they're furries. Everybody knows that. How do you think they have so much money to spend on drawn porn and fursuits?

And why don't you think that the low birth rates of the 90s-2000 is a valid explanation?

[–] grus@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I don't think it's that - or rather said, I don't think that's the primary or even the biggest reason.
If that were actually the case, you would expect to see a gender disparity in the 20-25 age range because women aren't conscripted into the army.
There's little to no gender disparity there in that graph.

What I think the cause is for that enormous dip is precisely the period when those babies were conceived.
20-30 year olds were conceived in the 1990s-2000s, a period of time which was quite difficult for Ukraine, subsidies given to mothers were low, often not even paid in full, applying for benefits was so complicated it barely was worth the effort of doing so.
In just a couple of years after the collapse of USSR, life expectancy dropped dramatically in Ukraine, so that should give you an idea of how that period of time was for the people.
Reality is that when the economy is doing shit, people won't have babies.
