How can you miss this opportunity !!!

Ah, this takes me back to my college times when I scanned textbooks one page at a time at the library because I couldn’t afford to buy one and renting a book was scarce

I think you are correct in your idea, however, according to this person, the issue is using Trans as a blanket statement to exclude the entire spectrum in this category. You don’t want to play with anyone else’s penis, totally your right. What about a transwoman with women genitalia? If that is still not your preference, then truly ask yourself why? If someone is not into black men, they wouldn’t say they are not into men.This is a broader topic about our perception of a group of people than just dating preferences.

Just a wild guess, but I think Apple is fully aware of this. They are intentionally keeping it separate to set a precedence that they will not bend over and let EU dictate and for the rest of the world to reap the benefit. Same with their decision to fine users for sideloading. They know it’s a losing battle they are just trying to make it as difficult as possible.

This guy probably thinks he’s doing his employees a favor by paying them for the work they perform for him

It’s hard to imagine people who buy iPhones care about sideloading. Their priority is the convenience of iMessage and the Apple ecosystem.

Well, that’s too bad about RCS.

Begin to de-google yourself. Research on FOSS alternatives to Google apps and services. Depending on your reliance, this may be a slow process. It’s OK. Build an understanding that there will be lots of sacrificing, especially convenience around the brand ecosystem that Google and Apple are known for.

It’s because of crap like this we as society need to go back to brick and mortar shops. Isn’t the whole point of online shopping is to provide convenience? How is this convenience.

No wonder why eBay has fallen off

All the rep did was copy pasta. What kind of ppl are they hiring.

Firing someone and not telling them why with concrete, documented examples should be illegal. Workers should have the right to sue their former employers for BS like this. US has many problems and lack of unions is one of them.

I’ve had 1password for as long as I can imagine. Never failed me. Happy with it.

I’m sure the demo will be highly controlled to only showcase general use practically and entertainment.

I had to do a double take to see how old is this post.

I would consider the users of Lemmy disenfranchised, whether they were the OGs or the refugees who did not want to be part of a corporate structure that is Reddit.

As for your goal of being nice, you can be a private instance with a very detail form with long list of questions that applies to your values. This will cut down new users joining and only those that are willing to go through the process of joining will show the commitment.

Having said that, having a closed door policy on the fediverse defeats the purpose of being on fediverse. If you truly only want, how you define disenfranchised, then fediverse may not be the right platform and you will always be left wondering.

It’s easy to boycott companies sometimes, but what about your own government sending aid and weapons to a genocidal regime. As an American, I feel very hopeless.

And many other niche communities

It makes no difference to me.
