I think I’d rather not give the company money at all.
Regulate the market? What are you, some kind of communist?
That’s not great, but I don’t think it would be utterly terrible.
Oh, that person was definitely insulting people and accusing them of addiction, and it wasn’t cool at all. I just think the whole “let people enjoy things” retort is ridiculous and overdone.
I see. My apologies for misunderstanding you.
More clarification would be helpful, I agree.
the same way each other digital storefront does
I’m not sure if I’m understanding you correctly, but “everyone else is doing evil too” is not an incredibly effective defense against doing evil.
Rights are not a purely legal concept. You can have rights that are not codified by law.
How about letting people enjoy things?
How is this person’s criticism preventing you from enjoying things?
I bet the Deck has a lot to do with this.
Lemmy is so much better than Reddit! Anyway, the admins of this instance are deciding what you’re allowed to see, just like Reddit.
I agree, human.
I append “site:Reddit.com” (I know, I know) to basically every search I perform. It’s the only reliable way at this point to see things written genuinely by real people.
To be honest, I would be really tempted to do this if I could afford it and guarantee that it would kickstart a YouTube career.
How would that possibly work?
Pay $44 billion for a brand
Literally destroy the brand
This is more baffling than accidentally destroying the brand, like he’s been doing.
We oughtta arrest the people who pave roads because human traffickers use them to commit crimes.

If Reddit had been any indication, the debate around Roiland’s culpability seems to polarize around the idea that since the charges were dropped he evidently must not have been guilty, and the idea that even though the charges were dropped, we have, through sheer coincidence, just now decided that his various past behaviors warrant immediate cancellation anyway (and that he’s totally guilty no matter what, either way).
I feel like the justice system needs to evolve in a way that protects people against social ostracism of this sort, should they turn out innocent. Even if Roiland himself is truly guilty, the fact that we live in a system where someone else who is innocent could feasibly end up in similar circumstances is unacceptable in a society as connected as ours.
