I love the idea, but our whole world is built on advertising. A world without ads does not seem possible. The internet mostly works only because of advertisements.

I floated an idea past my partner- facebook without ads. They responded without hesitation "but I like the ads!"

He did a nazi salute in front of the whole world. Does he really need to goose-step down the National Mall before you believe your own eyes? He is the very definition of a super villain

I gave up on reaching anyone. Now I blog for myself alone. My blog serves only 1 real purpose, which is to build and host my resume, but I enjoy writing anyways.

certain words get filtered out by the algorithms. "yahtzee" translates to "Those snappily dressed German fascists during WWII". "pron" translates to "sexually explicit material". So if you don't

Only one rationalization is need- Musk is evil. If you are still using Twitter, as far as I am concerned, you in league with him. You might as well just put on a MAGA hat.

Every click on Twitter puts a penny in musks pocket. If that is not enough reason to leave, nothing ever will be.

It's not the content- it's the ownership. I don't want to give another dime to Mush and Zuckerberg.

Because normies are a herd of sheep who will drag you down to their level. Only by fighting back can we defend ourselves from this overwhelming majority. You must be aggressive if you wish to stand alone, because to stand alone will always

This honestly seems like a hack? And I want to live Apple's garden even less than I want to live in Google's. Smartphone technology has plateaued over the years, which has an unexpected benefit- You don't need the latest mode
