"everybody"'s boycott brought this service down, the suffering is completely self inflicted, and people can end it whenever they want.
- black_puppydog 3y ago"everybody" in GP's context is "everyone using google" while "everybody" in your comment seems to mean "everyone using reddit" There's significant overlap here (to the point of it nearly being a subset relationship, I'd guess) but these are not the same thing.
- fsckboy 3y agobut everybody who googles and finds reddit results either ignores them or clicks to join everybody who uses reddit...
- black_puppydog 3y agowell I guess if I'm gonna start arguing semantics with you, this is a valid come-back. so, "use" in my reply means "actively using, creating posts & comments" while "use" in your post means "view content". Is that a fair summary? I think I'll end the definition game here. :D
- fsckboy 3y agoI thought your response was good thumbsup_emoji.jpg It's an interesting question "who is entitled to see reddit communities up and running at all times" and "how much public-interest is being affected"
