So too many Americans buy trucks and SUV’s, not because they want to, but because that’s the only thing they can buy.

That is…insanely inaccurate lol. “I wanted to buy a car but I could only find trucks for sale” is not a thing in this country whatosever.

Only replies to the original post will ever be at the top.

“Break the loop and you break the chains.”

Nobody actually said that to my knowledge but putting quotes around it lends some legitimacy. 

Thank you very much :D

I posted somewhere about how that didn’t happen to me even once last Christmas :/

We’re all deciding what to do with you right now. Tyrael has the deciding vote.

A single character emoji could easily be a typo as well.

Everything is an opportunity cost. That is, if you’re engaging in YouTube you are missing out on something else. It’s fine if that’s the choice you want to make, but understand that you’re “missing out” on hanging out with friends or reading or video games or calling a family member.

Agreed, I can dare to dream they’d go full Radio Shack even.

Worse, this particular one is a meta-shitpost and nobody likes the word meta ever since Zuck stole it.

The doomscroll is all there is. The good news about that is that anyone can emulate it.

This is like asking someone to check in on your ex, sure it sounds like a good idea, but…

Nah son, I’m new here but I’m from the old school…past Digg, past Fark, back to mIRC. Someone would have to shit continuously for 3 days straight to grab my attention.

But maybe we hate Kidney beans.

I’ve deleted 2 Reddit accounts now, most recent on July 1st in protest. Not going back this time, but for the people who feel like they lost something, I have some advice. Go to your own comments and sort by top. Read through the stuff you’ve said over the years that got the most positive feedback. Take it all in, and then let it go.

Welcome, eh?

Agreed but it needs to catch up to the current influx before we make it any easier :P

That’s true and it’s growing fast enough that it doesn’t need any help in that department, but increasing ease of use and lowering the barrier to entry are major factors in software design. Hopefully, the 3rd party app devs that no longer have Reddit apps to maintain make the switch easier in the future.

I think that this also helps one figure out Lemmy.
