that's so scummy. way to get users to shrug and watch it on a pirate site instead. if that was their goal, they've done well!

hell yessss. same. i am having a blast with Inquisition again. I'm very excited for Veilguard. Let's hope they bring back Knight Enchanter. my bursty beloved (yes I know it was nerfed. but i still think its fun)
I'm getting tired, man. these people are truly just the shittiest individuals ever.
i absolutely despise youtube. these fuckers are putting ads on paused videos now, and then this.
they will never get better. only worse. we need regulations badly.
i recommend going in completely blind. the style is great, the routes are compelling and I was surprised by how much i liked it.
it does feel that way. but I'm a fan of Dragon Age, and I am so happy and excited that I'm counting the days! =D
theres a lot of negative comments in here so I'm gonna say how excited for this I am =D.
i cannot wait. i love dragon age. I love Thedas. and I am so bloody excited! <3
i use Freetube on my deck which you can set the default video resolution to 1080. works well in gamemode.
...pardon?
you automatically assume I'm some weird corporate drone? you're not exactly making your case very clear and you sound patronizing.
I'm not entirely certain who this rant is for, but i can't imagine anyone who is labeled as a "consumer of the internet and not a citizen" is going to take you seriously.
and for that matter, those with good heads on their shoulders won't either.
Stop blaming random people for the bullshit that corporations do and get away with. you're pointing fingers at the wrong people and it makes your cause look fabricated.
Better tech education would definitely help take some power away from corporations
If you truly believe that, then vilifying more "simple" and less tech-savvy individuals is not the way to do it. Don't be angry that they click on ads. Be angry that they've been poisoned to think that behavior is normal on the internet.
Education is absolutely possible for those new to things like the fediverse. But education doesn't work when you use those labels for people. It widens the gap, it doesn't close it.
I'm not sure that categorizing people as "normies" is a great idea. nor is it a way to entice new people and voices to join and learn how to use the fediverse so that it can become a more reliable place.
i think blaming enshittification on "normies" is a lot easier than holding greedy corporations accountable for directly making everything worse. it's surely easier, but the real issue remains unchecked.
if anything, it's a good thing that more people are learning how much better the fediverse is. it helps the fediverse get stronger, not weaker.
"us" vs "them" is not a mindset that will produce anything except cesspools of toxicity. at least imho.
