Because centralized services are easier to use.

If a kid is old enough to go to school its old enough to walk to places or stay home alone

lol win 7 probably still can run more games than Linux

I dont see the issue here. Series A investment is normal. I am glad to have a federated alternative to twitter. I know people here hate it but federation is just way more comfortable to use.

Using reddit on PC and lemmy on mobile since the reddit app sucks

Trumps is worse

Because netflix tested it and it was worth it for them. The increased revenue from ads more than made up the subscription fees of users lost.

Dude is completely right. VPNs are good against geoblocking but thats it. All VPN providers that claim not to log stuff are lying and if there are logs it doesnt make a difference privacy wise

Do you have it for prescription meds too? In germany we had medication ads but only for over the counter stuff and we all know “Bei Risiken und Nebenwirkungen fragen Sie Ihren Arzt oder Apotheker”

Teenagers have the time to really get good at these games and lack the money to buy lots of games so its natural they would focus on skill based games that you can spend a lot of time in

Because we prefer to sign up to one thing that combines all our interests to signing up to dozens of different forums

Another thread about microsoft which is brigaded by the Linux fanboys. Just create a thread about Linux to suck each others dicks in.

It’s not and its not really one of the reasons. A lot of us are on reddit as well and facebook used to be very popular. Our privacy concerns are a bit weird. On one hand we distrustef google street view so much that google gave up on the other we use our full names on facebook and have our last name on our door bells. I think the real reason so many of us are on reddit and the fediverse is just that we are 84 million people and enjoy it to talk in german where we can. More populous countries often either have less available internet or speak english natively or are more comfortable speaking english than us.

Jemand gib diesem Mann einen Hustenbonbon

Nazi symbolism is forbidden and some slogans. One of the leaders of AfD was recently fined for using one such slogan. The secret service tasked with protecting the constitution (Verfassungsschutz) is watching the AfD and a mechanism to outlaw the party is currently worked on. We need to wait for the repost of this secret service to really start the mechanism. Once started it is estimated to need at least 4 years to get a result. So even if successfull the AfD will be in the government in a lot of states till then and possibly be in the federal government.

Germany is slow when it comes to prosecuting the far right. Usually when there are big protests against the far right the police distracts from them by arresting former member of the far left terror organization RAF which has been inactice for decades.

Nothing the right stands for or wants brings any real value. Why should I respect anyone picking stuff from that side?

Centrists have no spine to position themselves clearly. They constantly love to say both the right and left are equally bad, which is an insanely amount of false balancing to say wanting equality for all and deporting people and/or punishing people for their gender are things that are in any way comparable.

Gamers love to call people who focus on one particular type of game or console “not real gamers”

Germany definitely counts. The AfD is above 20%, in some states they might even govern alone. They probably will be part of the next government after the next election and they definitely are fascist.

Like it or not, when the richest man in the world wants to do something big. even if bad, it is worth it to report on it instead of quietely allowing him to do it.
