I can think of several interesting and relevant dialogues that could occur, but I also predicted that a viewpoint on this topic not couched in SSC-compatible rationality terms would be rejected and attacked by other HN commenters. Having confirmed that prediction, I’m content not to share any further details about my biasing experiences so as not to offend further, and avoid being emotionally vulnerable to y’all in the process. Or, restated, I was able to verify that the non-logical nature of my experiences and viewpoint remains intolerable within HN’s limits as a forum. I will continue to keep this in mind going forward as I have previously but it’s necessary to recheck assumptions now and then and this served that purpose acceptably.
- jjcon 6y agoI think it’s pretty clear that what was being discussed was a freedom of expression issue (as a value not a law). Doesn’t matter now though cause Apple backed down and the dev noted this in his response: “We may not all agree, but I am happy we all still have the freedom to express ourselves today” I think that sums things up well https://www.macrumors.com/2021/01/02/amphetamine-app-store-removal-threat/ https://www.macrumors.com/2021/01/02/amphetamine-app-store-r...
- floatingatoll 6y agoI’m sad to see this outcome, but it’s kind of you to ensure that I see it again for a fourth time today. Thanks and be well.
