A link to Reddit to a link to unverified “documents” is not news. It’s gossip at best.

News should be verifiable and fact checked. Not some random post in a subreddit.

Agree, OPs experience sucks and it’s good perspective but YSK should be focused on facts.

There are no cake days, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t try to make it Reddit. Let it be it’s own thing.

This is some very ironic, animal farm energy here. The government has forgotten who gave them their power.

I’m coming here from kbin and see the link fine

I really use very few platforms. Was mainly Reddit, now mainly Kbin. No Facebook, no Twitter, no Instagram, too old for Snapchat.

I stopped visiting Facebook several years ago. I think it was for two reasons:

1. I decided it was unhealthy for my in real life relationships to see how people behaved on Facebook.
2. When I noticed that Facebook was showing me way more “suggested” crap than stuff from my friends.

I never used Twitter. It just wasn’t for me.

Maybe too old and too much of a curmudgeon for Instagram and Snapchat.

Leaving Reddit was going to be hard. I tried Mastodon but, like Twitter, that wasn’t what I was looking for.

When I found kbin, I made the switch and that’s it. I have one sub I still check out on Reddit, but here if used to be daily, now it’s a few times a week. It’s continue to diminish I’m sure as the community on the deliverer grows.

an old irishman shuffles into a bar at sundown with his eyes low and his head down
the bartender says “ay, billy! whats the matter. you seem troubled”
billy responds with "you see this bar we’re standing in. I built it with me own hands! but they don’t call me the bar builder, no!

and the bridge everyone uses to cross the river to get to the market, i built that that with me own hands too! but do the call me the bridge builder? no, they do not.

and the wall that protects our city, i built that with me own hands too! and they don’t call me the wall builder neither.

BUT YOU FUCK ONE GOAT!..

You know why. You’re just trying to be smug.

It’s fine if you don’t want a large television, but someone else isn’t CRAZY for making different choices.

It’d be nice to leave the toxicity on those other sites.

Before watching the video: people are probably freaking out over nothing

After watching: wow, that’s not a small shark!

Trickledown wealth, yes, but the spirit of OPs question is “stuff”. “Stuff” does generally get cheaper over time.

I bought a 55” Plasma TV in 2008 for $2100. Last year I bout a 65” OLED for $1600. Much better picture, much thinner/lighter, much lower power consumption and heat generation.

This is the spirit of OPs question.
