Sometimes you have a product that’s a loss leader to hold marketshare instead
I can’t imagine adblockers are really that big of a deal, it’s just Google trying to get revenue off the 0.1% of people who use them
How VW, one of/the largest car manufacturers in the world, turns out the overpriced shit EVs it does, yeah… No wonder people are looking elsewhere
Covid also really did a number on the car market (like so many others), probably take another 2-4 years before the used market gets anywhere back to normal.
Capitalism demands perpetual and unlimited growth forever
Commenting/making posts has always required an account of some sort, at least as far back as I can remember. Maybe the IRC days you just needed a name
