They’re asking their users to leave. Its about time we oblige them.

I feel like I found a new reason to avoid amazon every time I looked for a product not being sold under some random fake brand name. I cancelled prime over a year ago and started shopping elsewhere. It costs more, but the quality of just about anything is higher.

I avoid amazon for the same reason I avoid walmart: everything is a simulacrum of an actual product. Somehow, amazon is even worse than walmart.

So yeah, boycott amazon and shop at places selling actual products.

Ex mormon here, and I had the same reaction. The shit that went on in that church is absolutely insane in retrospect. Like, it seemed “normal” at the time, but now looking back as an adult its all a bunch of “what the fuck” moments.

Like that one time I was a 15 year old kid, getting asked by a church elder if I looked at porn as a “purity test”. I have no idea how mormonism is even legal.

Same here. I figured it was a matter of time before reddit was entirely ruined after the api change and IPO. I stuck around for the niche communities, but they’ve all been overrun by bots.

RIP in pizza, reddit.

This is an interesting question for me. I used to be solidly in the “no” camp but became part of the “yes” camp due to some things I’ve experienced in life.

Life is strange. Maybe it’s nothing more than what is happening in our brain. Maybe it’s more than that. I choose to believe the latter, but I’m open to having my belief challenged if (when?) scientific study provides a better answer than what we have now.
