It's also the toxic community.

I was called a racist and holocaust denier because I asked someone how they expect YouTube servers to be paid for if you refuse to pay for premium, and don't want to watch ads.

My comments were downvoted like crazy, and the person who called me a racist holocaust denier was upvoted..

Again, all because I asked a question about how servers should be paid for. What the actual fuck? Reddit is insanely toxic, but Lemmy takes the cake.

Pretty much everyone I know refuses to buy into anything Google releases now. Not because they are tired of losing money or support, but they hate having to try and move their stuff over to a different service.

The average user won't care about firmware updates or that they lost a few bucks, but they hate when they need to figure out how to move their music over to Spotify or lose the ability to cloud print.

I'm confused how two drunk people having sex is date rape? I mean I'm assuming OP was also drinking.

My guy is angry because emojis have skin tones. Bruh.

They failed because no one could trust them. I never bought into it at all because I knew one day they'd shut it down, and they did.

Google ruined their reputation, and people are going to have a tough time buying into anything they release. I really only buy their phones and use their services that I am not tied into, such as YouTube, Maps, Translate, etc. All of their services where I am buying things, or hosting my data, I jumped shipped a couple years ago.

I mean shit, I bought their Google WiFi and they just straight up fucked all their users and released their Nest WiFi, pretending the Google WiFi doesn't exist.

People like you are why Lemmy will never take off. Take your meds.

Forza 1 week. Flight Sim was fun for less than a week. That's ~2 weeks. One subscription for GamePass is 30 days. If you cancel before the 30 days, you get a refund for the remaining time.

It's quite literally a no brainer to take advantage of GamePass right now.

People who will comment "ya but you don't own them anymore", I don't care. I have 0 urge to play either game, because they are finished. I essentially saved $280 CAD playing on GamePass.

And you're bad at math and financials if you think it's better to buy a singular game for $75.

For what it's worth, I buy every game I really like on Steam (I have over 1200 games on Steam), but I use GamePass for everything else.

I've saved so much money using GamePass. Sorry, but I'm not paying for Forza, Flight Simulator, Minecraft Legends, etc. All of those games I beat in less than a week, and they cost $100+ CAD. Literally saved money by not buying them, but got to play them all fully.

Ok. Enjoy buying each game separately. $75 will get you a singular game. Don't play it all at once!

Weird. All of my dogs are free feed. While raising them, we always allowed access to a full bowl, and they've never wanted to eat the full thing since they know they'll always have access.

It's $0 in Canada. Same with the vaccine. 🤷‍♀️
