Ah, the student loan loophole

And yet the mergers still went through
It’s a false equivilence

Been starting to infect Reddit as well in the past couple of years, so the old trick of just adding Reddit to a query is no longer helpful.
God forbid I want to see normal peoples’ opinions on what the best [blank] is.
Nah. Someone answered the question 3 years ago on a random Discord channel.
What an apt analogy.
I guess I dodn’t make myself clear. People should be angry, but they should point that anger at these massive corporations who keep distributing everything in single-use plastic containers, even when there are friendlier alternatives.
People also need education about greenwashing and how to detect it.
Don’t blame yourself for something that is the fault of massive corporations.
Not your fault there are few, good alternatives. By all means, if switching to more ethical products makes you feel better, don’t let me stop you, but this is a problem that needs government regulation to solve.

It’s got a fully independent search index according to the README. SearxNG, LibreX, LibreY, etc. just takes results from multiple search engines and combines them.
More than likely, if it’s a publicly traded company, it’s the shareholders and the board of directors.
Samsung still doesn’t allow for unlocking the bootloader in the US, so after 7 years, the phone basically becomes ewaste due to lack of security updates. Repairability, I can’t speak on, but they probably still glue their screen.
That’s not even counting the fact that SoC vendors put these unmaintainable amount of patches on top of the Linux kernel instead of contributing to upstream Linux, so that their device can use a generic kernel. This leads to the use of ancient Linux versions on embedded devices with no room for upgrade without a third party porting mainline Linux.
“Smart” TVs/IoT devices have the same issue, but often times worse. You’d be lucky to get a new Android version on an Android TV, let alone a new kernel version, or the ability to run a custom OS, with documentation on how provided by the manufacturer, along with stock firmware.
There’s also the problem of companies (mainly ones based in China) not releasing source code for the GPL-licensed software they use, such as the Linux kernel. Very common issue, especially with Mediatek products.
It’s already supposed to be decline-by-default in this case (IIRC under GDPR)

FreeTube is also available as a webapp and on Android: https://marmadilemanteater.github.io/freetube/#/

I’ve had trouble importing subs on the Android version though, and haven’t really tested the webapp.
Only when they’re not on the plaintiff side of things.
Aside from microtransactions, releasing an unfinished product that broke on day one, and being overall low quality compared to the Team Silent games, they are essentially making fun of trauma and PTSD as a concept. Compare that to Silent Hill 2, which was very respectful in how it handled the concept of trauma and PTSD, and it becomes quite obvious.
The fact that this sticker exists:
Should tell you enough.
The second I heard the tagline “Face Your Trauma Together” during the original teaser, I thought it was going to flop.
Clearly Genvid doesn’t exactly have respect for SH fans or for gamers in general.
Lemmy isn’t listed as a Reddit alternative. I wonder why that is.
They are also recommending PrivacyTools.io, which had a nasty takeover and started selling ad space. Privacy Guides is the better site.
