So you could just use Email in these archaic programs called Thunderbird etc. If you really wanted to use gmail. You know, without adds, without the need for an ad blocker, without AI recommendations and at your leisure.
But hey, you’d have to install something on your computer for that… how horrible.
And who uses computers for work anyway, you can just write your essay on a tablet. (but there are also email apps on those)
It’s a shittier way to work but hey it’s easier.
That’s the cheap chinese knockoff, Neckdobalds.
Chant with me… Indie games… Indie Games! INDIE GAMES!
It’s… it’s dead Jim.
I use Arch! How dare you say that I am unhappy? I am frothing at my mouth! I am totally happy, can’t you see that? CAN’T YOU SEE THAT???
How the heck do they know what people with their names look like?
I mean, sure they will meet some people who share their name, but, unless you have a very very common name you mostly will meet people with other names. And wouldn’t your fashion be determined by your in group and social and work culture? Same with your hair, isn’t that a trend most people follow? Aka ‘Oh undercuts are in, everyone is having them… they look quite nice, I should get one’
or ‘Oh mullets are ugly…’ but everyone named Karl is sporting one?

Oh yes it does, I just meant something for you to give directly to other users.

Poor jack, gone from existence, I think he made god angry or something… ;)
The internet was far more enjoyable 20 years ago, so if content goes back to being user hosted instead of corporation hosted I’ll be happy.
Thing is, it doesn’t have to be ready. It doesn’t have to have everyone here, just enough people to form a healthy community.
This is how it was in the olden days and it worked well.
If there is reddit with its gazillion users and the fediverse only has a few million that’s enough for me.
Enough to have interesting discussions and learn new things.
And who the f**** really cares about celebrities like Nicki Minaj etc.
I’d rather talk to the most unremarkable person I can find than those manufactured personalities.
The satellite went boing boing?
