It’s their culture!

So you have to fiddle with the volume less on vinyl?

That’s the one good selling point I’ve heard for vinyl so far.

That user base is a drop in the ocean compared to most of reddits user base, and those people have all left already.

Before tablets, parents didn’t survive.

The target being the executives who will approve the marketer’s work.

So what are they doing that illegal that other apps aren’t doing?

So what are they doing that illegal that other apps aren’t doing??

I really don’t know how to be any more clear with this question.

I read the article too, and those things you quoted sound to me like things every app does.

Hence my question: what is different here?

There’s not a word in this article about why this breach of privacy matters while others do not. It’s not stated whether this was in the terms of service for the app, and whether those terms were ruled against.

All kinds of apps have been selling personal information for a long time, and it’s been ruled before that it’s allowed if they have the proper legalese in the terms of service. Did this app just not have any terms of service?

Why is it a breach of privacy for this app, but other apps doing the same selling of personal data is not?

You forgot the part where we all return to poverty so the rich can stay rich in the face of climate change.

Easy fix: don’t offer support

More expensive easy fix: contract with a call center in India to do “support” for you.

“made to be less hated,”

Who’s the halfwit that came up with that line lmao

No, it’s STACY and a couple other people.

Dumb TVs are called “digital signage” now.

How does the notification daemon in Linux work? It’s all local and has been around for ages, why can’t we do that?

Can you cite a case where an American company with no holdings or dealings in the EU was fined successfully?

If the company has no infrastructure within the jurisdiction of the gdpr, how can they hope to enforce it?

And what jurisdiction does the gdpr have over servers hosted in America?

We’re all still waiting for the court case that sets this precedent.

I think it would be a lot more reasonable to expect undocumented issues. They have a lot to lose and it’s controlled by a billionaire. As if they’re not going to try to cover it up.

they post updates of things they are making (music, games, and comics mostly); and they share photos that they’ve taken, and links and comments to news that they find interesting. Compared to Lemmy, it’s more personal, because when you respond you are talking directly to a person that you are likely to talk to again.

You can do all that same stuff on Lemmy/reddit, except the comments are actually organized and readable. Trying to read a continuous comment thread on Twitter is such a pain.
