  • I guess these results count for something, however Madison’s allegations have been really consistent and more importantly, were quietly published months before without any drama.

    Believing the big corporation with drastically more leverage on this situation would be stupid, so they aren’t 100% cleared for me. Something definitely happened with Madison, but likely for lack of records and evidence it wasn’t confirmed.

    We’re not gonna ever know what really happened.

    I bought bean lifetime because all of the promises the dev told us, not because of the current state of the app.

    Apple has a refund reason of “My purchase does not work as expected” which does kinda fit here. Thing is, the window to make the claim had expired, and I couldn’t convince them to check it.






  • The worst thing is that there are many bootlickers out there. Worker rights are a joke and companies have infinite ways of fucking you over.

    In this instance the HR snakes were caught with their pants down and looked like imbeciles.

    But for example many people get placed on PiP with unrealistic goals, or harassed by management over petty mistakes. The only goal being saving the corporation some money by claiming low performance.

    A lot of people out there need to get their head out of their asses if they think this is ok.



  • I’ll never understand how Twitch became as big as a thing as it is.

    You already answered that in your comment.

    You want to watch videos, not livestreams. Of course a video will be better at being, you know, a video (nicely edited, in short format, etc). A livestream is different for many reasons, none of which interests you apparently.

    Nothing wrong with that tbh. It’s just not for you.


  • This is a bigger issue to leave it to users imo. Like lemm.ee admin said a few months ago, threads is too fucking big.

    Anything they push on the fediverse will be what users see in All. Plus, popular stuff on threads is determined through Facebook’s algorithm, and it will also determine the fediverse recommendations by consequence.

    The above is solvable if you block them I guess, but by default it will completely ruin everything.

    However, lemmy 0.19 block feature doesn’t work on users of an instance, only posts hosted in an instance. Add to this that Facebook is a cancerous company making all its money from ads. Expect their bots to comment and make posts pushing ads on all instances.

    All of this will also mean high workload on mods to regulate the content. Threads doesn’t bring anything good here, and defederation is probably the only way to protect us.
