Depends on what you mean by "like" lol
It's nice to generate images of settings for my d&d campaign.
It's nice that I can replace Google/Siri with something I run and control locally, for controlling my home.
But those aren't really important things
There are lots of reasons to want alternatives to social media mega-corps, and the people with those reasons have varied likes and hobbies.
Even amongst the people who care about privacy, decentralization, etc, people still have varied interests. All you have to do is look at the popularity of Tiktok content about privacy, security, programming, etc.
Dude is a basement dweller, and just assumed that was the norm for everyone who shared an interest with him.
I have my own thoughts about hurdles that loops will face, but "fediverse is for snobs" isn't it.
Lamest flex in history
Because the constraints make it interesting
I want the length limits.
Yeah, the fediverse would be much better place without narcissistic gatekeeps like you here to bring the mood down all the time.
What an absolute neckbeard take
I'm interested, and I hope it's successful.
I'm not sure how they're going to attract creators, when Tiktok already has the same features, has a larger audience, and pays... But I hope they can because I'd love to dump Tiktok for something open source.
I wonder how their FYP will work, because honestly that's a huge part of what makes Tiktok good.
In my experience, indigo parking is also accompanied by an indigo pay machine for exactly this purpose. It spits out a little ticket you put in your windshield.
Idk about this case specifically, but their pay machines are all around Halifax.
The problem is loopholes, but I'm not a tax lawyer, which is why I provi such a vague answer.
I think that ostentatious wealth is a sign you're not doing your share to help the society that supports you, so the disgustingly rich shouldn't exist. But I'm not opposed to a little inequality as reward for doing important work or going above and beyond, but what we have now is crazy.
I wouldn't really say that California's tax is especially progressive compared to taxes in the past, like the golden age of the USA. But even then, lobbyists have opened so many loopholes that it doesn't even really matter what the tax rate is
I don't know because I think if people got paid fair wages the world would look very different, and the cost of living calculations we currently use to determine fair wages would change in ways I can't predict.
I think that with aggressive progressive taxes, we'd see the range of incomes get compressed, and lift lower incomes. I'm not entirely sure how that'd affect cost of living, it'd probably go up, but wages would go up more.
But if I had to guess, if say everyone should be making between $100k and $300k, and I should probably be somewhere in the middle of that.
Just local ones.
