And you are not alone.

Aside from the calm, less travel, planes, stuff in general we have proven we could be less of a burden on the planet if we wanted.

Then it ended.

Think of the shareholders!!

Even if I weren’t wfh nobody cares about some boobs in barvaria.

Okay, why is it NSFW… Ohh I see.

Or no I still don’t. You must be from those uptight overseas people 😏.

Just to give you a little something:

My glasses cost around 500€ to 700€ per glass (so around 1200€ plus frame) and I have to pay them myself.

Fair point, but if you need to switch anyway you might want to pick an available option that solves at least the issue being currently faced.

The again, we’ve moved back a lot to throw away mentality.

Yes, you need to run the service somewhere. But anyone can do so (Foss).

With discord my experience is limited but I currently understand it’s a service model so you’re dependant on a company, which can pull the same sh*t teamspeak did at any time.

Not needing any technical knowledge just means someone else is running it, possibly being able to lock you in. And in the case of discord, you already are locked in and have to accept whatever they think up.

At some point, monetization will take over.

It seems many don’t remember why there was a ts2 mass extinction. It was because of the horrendous ts3 licensing.

Why the masses went to yet another closed system like discord I’ll never understand while being very satisfied with mumble/murmur.

Yes indeed. Upon seeing this thread I thought I need to add the information you added, but going from dick to thick does absolutely not improve the situation.

I do.
