I told myself I would never install it until it became the only option for keeping in touch with a girl I like. But hey as long a that's all I use it for, they can't glean that much info from me, right? Right?

I moved to protonmail years ago for this reason, but then my friend gave me a free paid YouTube account so I created a new Gmail account and found a new love for heavy metal. Since then the algorithm has learnt my tastes so well I would be devastated to lose my account, but I made a pact with myself that if my friend ever decided to ditch her account that I wouldn't pay for my own. So I'm totally at the mercy of her whims, and she doesn't even know!
It's asking for a login
Oh in that case you could ask if it's running on Windows, cos you don't want any forced updates halfway through...
I've wondered that myself. I don't have kids but after looking at all the symptoms a lot of them fit, and a couple of friends have told me they "just assumed I was on the spectrum" when I brought it up recently. I had no idea, but I don't see much use in getting diagnosed now I just turned 40...
I use sync for lemmy, so every time I go on lemmy I see ads. Also when YouTubers have in- video sponsor ads. I skip them but it's still an inconvenience. Same for podcasts
Oops my bad
Please take this boomer humour somewhere else
Great app! I've been using it for years and it just gets better and better over time
Cool idea, I think it'd be more aesthetically pleasing if you painted them all the same colour
As if that's going to change anything
YES! This is my number one pet peeve. I am so fucking tired of having to install an app just to use my new e-scooter, or light bulb, or to use 100 new different functions that would work perfectly well on your website if you weren't such a fucking money grubbing troglodyte.
