It seems like the interface took a nose dive too. It’s a lot more sluggish and harder to find new things to watch.

You can always use a keyword filter depending on what client you use to browse Lemmy- it makes browsing a lot more enjoyable.

Inception timeline

The majority of my bosses worked a lot more than me, to the point where I don’t even know how they stayed awake. At my current job, the workplace is falling apart because the upper management refuses to work long hours like that while us lower staff deal with the aftermath. I love bashing on rich people, but a lot of them (semi-rich) worked hard to get where they are and in a way deserve it. You sound like a good boss- I wish more places understood that taking on more responsibility means more dedication and more hours instead of getting to boss people around.

MEGA STRIKE

The wealthiest people that I know (definitely not billionaire range) work a lot more hours compared to me, but most of them consist of consulting, meetings, traveling, and virtual meetings while traveling- it seems like they’re constantly on the phone. They’re happy to interact with lower stature people to get a feel of how people generally feel about the times and politics. They’re also generous, but not too generous- they get anxious around really poor people. They fly A LOT too- if you’re flying a domestic flight between cities you’re probably sharing a cabin with a super rich person. Definitely not a billionaire with a private jet though.

The thing that threw me off Facebook was the 2016 election and the Cambridge Analytica scandal, even though I ran a popular meme page. I thought I found a sanctuary on Reddit, but looking back everything major on it was shilled to advertise or sow political discord. I thought Google Plus had a lot of potential, but nobody I knew would join and y’know, Google’s privacy record.

Why? There’s so many other things we could put money towards that would help people like climate change research.

There’s no innovation coming from them anymore. They keep releasing the same devices with updated and pricier technology and people are bored of it.

Reap what you sow- make your free data harvesting product shitty and people will stop using it. The pandemic isolation is over and people are looking to make connections in person. Tinder and all the rest are designed to keep you from your perfect match unless you buy Tinder Gold Silver Platinum even though they know exactly who would be perfect for you. I’ve seen it myself in the past- I would be swiping and a perfectly fine profile would randomly disappear.

Brave for iOS (sorry firefox gang I appreciate you guys) is working fine for me. I had some issues with both Firefox/uB and Brave on windows getting the pop-ups.

Intrusive and sneaky ads like the ones on YouTube should be heavily regulated if not illegal.

Edit: especially ads louder than the average content volume, repetitive jingles designed to get stuck in your head, billboards, and ads thrown in the middle of the video you’re watching
