Timbers are shivered.

I just hate the fact if 10mm is too big, I can get 9mm, but if 15/16 is too big, fuck me, I guess. Bringing the full toolbox over because what random fucking bullshit number comes before it?

Like I’m here to fix shit, not do math to figure out which socket is one size smaller.

Do you have any idea how excited I was for the GTA trilogy remake? I’ve been waiting for so long. Only to be slapped in the face.

The worst part is that I know rockstar will never attempt to remake them again. I’ll never get that San Andreas remaster.

Creators can see how much they make from premium subscribers vs ad views. They do make more from people who pay for premium.

Why do you say they don’t? Like I’m curious where you got that from, when it’s blatantly wrong?

Yes, because calling me a racist Holocaust denier, and having those comments upvoted is very non toxic.

It takes other users to upvote those comments.

Sorry I meant storage, which was apparent by my following sentence “and Google hosts an unbelievable amount of data”

I agree that the pricing doesn’t make sense unless you can split it, which is what I do.

Premium is $25 in Canada. You can add 5 people to your plan. That makes it $5 per month for each of us.

Personally I don’t buy cable or satellite TV, so I get most of my enjoyment from YouTube. So to me $5 per month is nothing, especially if you have something like Spotify which you can cancel and use YouTube Music, which is included in that $5.

If you have no friends and you’re the only one footing the bill, I agree that the pricing is a lot. At that point you just have to deal with the annoying ads.

I hate ads as much as anyone, but my question still remains for anyone who demands on blocking all ads and refusing to pay for premium, how do you expect servers and creators to be paid?

I know Google can technically afford it, but that’s not how businesses are run. You can’t take profits from one department to make up for the losses in another department, and as we know bandwidth is extremely expensive, and Google hosts an unbelievable amount of data, and free, too.

Like I’ve mentioned in the past, I have a bunch of videos uploaded to YouTube to share with family, and they are all private. Therefore Google is paying to store my videos, while making $0 from them, as they are not public and making any ad revenue.

I also know that Google is bad. Corporations suck. All that jazz. I just don’t understand why most of Lemmy users think everything should be free, but when asked about how these things are supposed to get funded, they go silent.

Lemmy itself won’t be around long if users refuse to donate to their instance, and refuse to view ads. Even if someone is hosting an instance in their basement, the cost of internet, replacement drives, maintenance, and electricity all add up.

Bro, it’s so fucking frustrating that I need to be subbed to 5 different Android communities just to get my news.

I can’t sub to just one because I miss news if I do.

My only hope is that Boost brings multi-reddit support to Lemmy, so I can just click on “Android” and get the news from all 5 Android communities.

It’s also the toxic community.

I was called a racist and holocaust denier because I asked someone how they expect YouTube servers to be paid for if you refuse to pay for premium, and don’t want to watch ads.

My comments were downvoted like crazy, and the person who called me a racist holocaust denier was upvoted…

Again, all because I asked a question about how servers should be paid for. What the actual fuck? Reddit is insanely toxic, but Lemmy takes the cake.

We call that justifying your purchase. You forced yourself into liking it so you didn’t “waste” the money.

$20 CAD gets you a family plan that you can share up to 5 people, so $4 CAD each.

Not sure what you’re on about. If you’re paying $20 for Spotify you’re getting ripped off.

Or you can pay $25 CAD for YouTube Premium, share it with 5 people, and get both YouTube ad free AND YouTube Music for $5 CAD per month.

I’d rather pay $4/$5 per month to access millions of songs than $20 for an album that I will get bored of in a few months, thanks.

Lemmy is no different than Reddit. Just constant reposts.

It feels worse on Lemmy because the amount of content is so low. Really sucks.

Thanks, conservatives!

As a Canadian, I agree with you, but this is probably made by an American, and they don’t get paid by patients per hour.

They nickel and dime everyone. Our ad added an extra 50 seconds to the appointment? Well now your bill went from $45,000 to $47,000.

I was asked why I can’t switch to Linux, so I replied listing the software I require Windows for, and then was called a fanboy and downvoted heavily…

This is the 3rd redesign in the last 2 years lol. Damn.

You’re getting upset over people hearing about someone adding an ingredient they don’t like into a globally recognized dish, and saying “ew”.

You’re acting like these people are protesting in the streets.

Have a little fun, my guy. People reacting to this saying “ew” is okay. I also personally think the idea of it is gross, and personally I won’t be trying it. Even if it turns out to be amazing, the texture is too much for me, and that’s okay.

It’s very cool that you’ve never had any opinions about food before. Congratulations.

That’s not the same, but okay.

Imagine taking your favourite dish and adding something you hate into it. That’s the equivalent.
