  • You raise a good point.

    I’m much the same in that I just refuse to watch anything with ads. They really are dystopian and weird.

    I also get that same feeling when I see someone just grinding through youtube ads, but people that do that just don’t seem to have any awareness of the interaction - it’s just part of the show.

    The weirdest of all is when people (usually brave browser enthusiasts?) try to claim that “some” ads are actually a good thing because it makes them aware of some product they actually desire which they wouldn’t have been aware of otherwise. I’ll take blissful ignorance thanks.

    So yes, I can imagine people doing this stuff without really thinking about it.












  • Yeah what the fuck is with that.

    It’s a very twitter centric view of the web. If you’re not on xitter you’re “shutting out a significant portion”.

    The thing is, it’s not simply that Musk has an ideology that is disparate from my own, he has an agenda that is egregiously contrary to the stated values of the Debian project.

    You’d consult with the community over a new logo or blog layout maybe, but on whether to assist Musk in his far right agenda there’s not really any decision to be made honestly.
