That’s definitely not true. Just yesterday I was eating a salad (with chicken and bacon and cheese even) and I had an older coworker pass by and grumpily tell me he didn’t eat rabbit food.

For the record, I only downvoted you because of the multiple edits whining about being downvoted.

That’s like watching porn with your parents level of cringe right there.

Wat?

God, if I could just install SmartTube and Kodi/Stremio on an Apple TV, I’d convert in a heartbeat. Until then, I’ll keep my Shield TV Pro.

He’s extremely well known in the right to repair community. His “day job” is running a repair service for laptops and phones, mainly Apple devices, and he has always been at the forefront of trying to keep Apple in check as much as one person can be. To say he’s a decent guy is an understatement.

For me, I do a mix of both. If I know I’m going to watch something multiple times, or want to save it for later I’ll download it, if it’s just a show that I’m casually watching in the background, or I’m using my phone/tablet to kill time I’ll stream it. Also my internet isn’t amazing (starlink) so if I’m downloading an Xbox update or something I can’t always stream 4K content without it buffering, so a lot of time I’ll go ahead and download something beforehand.

I like the fact that all options are equally easy.

Also, the cost of 6 months of RD is roughly equal to the price of a “value meal” at a fast food restaurant these days. Do you really feel bad about not having something to show for when you’re getting 6 months of all the shows you can stream for basically nothing? Especially when you have the option of downloading everything if you want. The entitlement there is a bit much.

You know, most questions have question marks. Might be helpful in preventing other people from thinking this was a guide thread and not a question.

I can think of plenty of reasons. Lately with the hexbear nonsense, there are tons of seemingly normal sounding communities that you might click on and not realize that you’re being fed propaganda without even knowing it.

Also I saw a community called spoilers yesterday but it was on an instance dedicated to magic the gathering, so I guess the community was dedicated to talking about spoilers from within the game itself. But if all you see is spoilers, it wouldn’t be obvious at all. There are tons of examples of things like this happening when instances are specific. If there’s a community all about sports but it’s hosted on an instance from Australia, that might not be relevant to someone who isn’t from Australia.

More importantly, as with any other feature request, this should be made as an option. If you don’t like it, then don’t enable the option. People that would get benefit from it could choose to enable it. Win/win. I have no idea why anyone would ever argue for optional features to ever not be added. As far as the space restriction goes, it’s already an option to be able to see individual users full instance name, I don’t know why this would take up any more space. It should be exactly the same amount.

Impressive, I guess, but how many of those 2 million posts have a single comment? If 90% of these are just bots reposting things from Reddit with no further engagement…

So you passed math but failed reading, eh?

It depends on if you’re talking about left vs right politicians or left vs right political viewpoints. If you’re talking about viewpoints, I absolutely disagree with what you’re saying. If you’re talking about politicians, especially in the US, then sadly, you’re mostly correct. The left say they want to make tons of changes but when push comes to shove, there’s enough money in politics to stop any real changes from happening no matter which party is supposedly in charge.

But aren’t jokes supposed to be like, funny or something?
