I'm not a power user but it's way better than Plex imo. The personal media management features are on par with plex without all the bullshit ads / FAST services being shoved down your throat. To me it feels like Plex got too popular and the owners realized that a) they could make a shitload of money off of their existing userbase and b) the more they gear the app around FAST crap the more they can act like it's used for legitimate reasons and not just piracy

Execs are no doubt panicking because the infinite growth they've promised as a result of their 2020 finances is starting to look unlikely and they need excuses to cut down on employees

It was a vertical drop ride at the nearby Icon Park and the investigstion found that the harness had been improperly modified by the park at some point to theoretically accommodate large people in such a way that if a big enough person sat there it would fail to lock without any alert or warning, the scary thing is that it was probably like that for a long time. One thing the major Orlando parks have going for them is extremely tight safety standards, these side parks always seem sketchy lol

I feel like this reveals an uncomfortable truth about the lemmy user base lol

Ya that website is totally useless if you don't already know what Pleroma is, it explains what the fediverse is like 4 times but never explains how the app integrates with it lol

The problem is that without an effective way to ID bot content then stats like this could be covering up the real trends in human users, particularly in any stat that purports to measure all lemmy instances since we already know there are instances out there filled with thousands of bot users

Good luck trying to get a spicy word like snub in the title with a boring take like that

How many people do you think are on lemmy compared to threads lol

Look at his post history, he seems to have a weird mistrust of magnets and believes they could just all turn off one day

It was illegal, and don't call me surly.

Ya I wouldn't apply to any role at this company if I saw that, that's a major red flag that their VC money has either run out or is about to lol
