“Everyone says those 100 people are a cult” is different from “Half of the population of a country call the other half a cult and vise-versa”.
You might feel like it’s “everyone”, because you never hear anything the other side has to say. But I’m reminding you, from a statistical perspective, the weight is really about 50/50. A 60/40 split in your favor is currently outside of a 3-sigma confidence interval.
To me seems like you’re mainly interested in shushing your political opponents.
From the overall sentiment, your only option, really, is to either imprison 40% of your population, if you’d eventually instate the same laws but on the national level instead of lemmy, or to solve matters in a civil war.
I’d, frankly, would be very worried if I were you, and I’d spend my days trying to figure out a solution.
You spend your days meeting the same people, going in a circle one-by-one, everyone in their turn says “trump bad” and the rest nods. Kind of an emotional support group.
Agree, it’s getting old!
I’m literally banned for shitposting trump support messages. I have cold hard evidence.
To me seems like there’s a potential of a discourse of some sort. Certainly the freshest opinion in the entire post.
It’s very interesting that you think his supporters are sheep, and all people around you upvote you at a 100% rate. (you received 0 downvotes after calling at least 40% of your countrymen sheep).
Coincidentally, his supporters on their social media post how Kamala voters want the end of the country. With a 100% upvote ratio.
Now, tell me, if I’m an outsider with no horse in this race, and no way of objectively measuring the reality by living in the country of question, what should I think?
While you gather an answer to that question, I’ll be of an opinion that 100% of Americans are complete morons and sheep because they’re unable of having any reasonable democratic process or a political discourse for two years every four years (cuz it’s “election” time).
You keep saying it every day to people who upvote you at a 100% rate. I don’t think your message is ever received by anyone who disagrees. My question is what’s the point? This is a waste of electricity.
p.s. also all trump supporters are quickly banned on lemmy
Can you please, please, stop posting the same political content over all fkn communities on this platform. What the actual point of the entire fediverse being one tiny jerk circle?

The f are you on about? YouTube has a fairly affordable ad-free tier with a transparent revenue-share model that multiple top content creators have openly endorsed.
This ad infested hell only exists because most of the internet users think it’s outrageous to pay 10$/month for an all-you-can-eat VoD service. Some top creators did branch out to create their own streaming services, and spoiler alert, it’s more expensive, or just as expensive but with muuuuch less content.
I do care if all that YT content is gone. It’s a fuckin goldmine.
I’d really wish they actually had the audacity to just paywall the entire platform. Pay or fuck off, no ads.
And then people like you can go back to the good old days of some other random free video hosting service where a 360p video with a cat meme was buffering for a minute on a good day, or was completely unavailable on a bad one.
I hate that this is even a feature in the web standard. A result of some massive corporate corruption for sure.
You’re too far up your own ass.
Vanced got nuked, revanced constantly needs to be patched, otherwise it slips to the low quality settings. Free YT days are numbered.
And no, it’s not easy. Unless they want to encode ads into videos, and re-render the whole thing. Which is ludicrously expensive. For as long as they don’t there will be a way to not play the ad chunks.
What’s there to disagree with? you prove my point.
it stood on the shoulders of volunteers
Yeah. A classic story. A sysadmin took the old server from his work after they upgraded and now runs <insert video game guild imageboard/wiki/chat> on it.
With the amount of traffic modern web pipes through Google’s and Cloudflare’s servers, all of you homebrewers wouldn’t be enough to take over even 5% of that.
You can’t go back to the good old days because you’ll break your back trying to, and the collective lemmy anon can’t, because they’re too used to freeload while getting big tech quality service.
Good point. Time to gdpr my bank.
Don’t come crying back when they’ll force you to either pay 50$/hour for your cat videos, or entirely block off your access to the internet as they control the engine behind 99% of the browser market share.
No, you will not come and host it for free on lemmy. It already struggles with hosting, and already needs monetary support, even though most heavy content is on some 3rd party domain.
But maybe you’ll be happy to donate 10$/months so your only source of fun content doesn’t die.
They’re making it unusable. YT is literally starting a massive war on users with AdBlock. And oh boy was lemmy angry.
I was there. And it stood on the shoulders of volunteers. And we collectively gathered money so our favorite imageboard could pay for hosting. And we discussed how unethical it was to block ads, cuz the imageboard needs to pay for hosting. So either donate or click on the ads, ane make sure the revenue flows. (Remember the tiny text “please click on the ads, it supports the site”?)
We offloaded imagehosting to shady weird websites with virus autodownloaders, where you absolutely had to block JS just so you don’t get pwned. And so some suckers would eventually get pwned, have their screen locked, pay ransom, and finance our collective love for zipgifs.
I was there, Gandalf, I was there 20 years ago. YouTube and Tumblr were the holy saviors.
So, is OP donating to lemmy? Or self-hosting some content?
Or only leeching while explaining to everyone that this is how communism is supposed to work?
Opposite in the EU. Most banks won’t even give you an option for a dispute. Or it will be awfully convoluted.
PayPal? Best dispute system ever. Saved me from online purchase scams countless times.
