Not sure we’d agree with that definition of friend. Real friends also call you out/in.

Strange, we don’t see it on our end and others don’t. So you may be correct, it might be lemmy.ml

You’re welcome. It is genuinely how we imagine it.

You might have some extension or word filter that causes the scunthorpe problem.

And that is exactly why society doesn’t matter. People do.

There’s the link without the m as the browser decides for itself if it needs it.

What was that encrypted bluetooth messaging app that someone made in a weekend recently?

How so?

Exactly why we should all move off of commercial social media.

A big ball that consumes all it touches, that will destroy the world if it can because that is part of its purpose.

It is disabling, and has conditioned people to accept it through its unlimited use of propaganda and wars in order to control the populace.

It takes and takes and gives little back.

It is against how things should be, and could be said to be unnatural.

It is about power and control over the populace, sadly few realise this because of said propaganda and because they believe nothing better could exist due to it limiting their imagination, time, energy and organising.

Why is their name censored? Name and fucking shame.

So pay them directly or encourage them to move to platforms/models that aren’t as exploitative as heck for both them and listeners.

Or don’t and watch the completely unethical system of forcing artists to be dancing monkies instead of making what they want to make burn down.

Edit: Also artists should make as much or as little art as they want and still get paid for it (under this system anyway). We artists do not exist to give readers, listeners, viewers, watchers or enjoyers what they want as often as they want.
