Jesus christ, relax. Discord isnt some billion dollar revenue stream for people like Elon Musk. Last year it generated $130 million in revenue. The only money they make are from nitro subscribers, otherwise their entire platform is free for you to use. I dont know why you think Discord is a soulless company, especially considering it's not even publicly traded so doesn't have to bend to the will of shareholders.

Sounds dystopian as fuck. Just another thing to further separate us from reality.

Go back to your fucking cave

Yeah that's basically what I'm doing now but using xorg instead of wayland. So I cant use stuff like gamescope and the steam big picture is horribly laggy for whatever reason with nvidia cards.

Next GPU upgrade I'll go team red but until then I'm stuck with the nvidia card.

Will that make it more usable for nvidia users? I hope to someday try SteamOS with nvidia but I think most of the wayland issues are what's preventing that.

Oops my bad, I didn't even see the link, thought OP posted a text post.

[–] anon232@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Can you provide some insight on how to do this?

This should honestly be the top comment, most companies appear to be using RTO as a means of doing mass layoffs without the negative PR hit.

Even if that's true I wouldn't put it past the companies to find ways to circumvent regulations, and I think trying to advocate for regulating them sets a precedent against the free and open internet that websites are under government control, which shouldn't be the case. Imagine if government started requiring government ID's to access all websites (including Lemmy, which is a social network).

Rules for social media lol. What do you expect the government to do? How would they even enforce these rules? Social media sites would simply host in other countries outside of the USA to bypass regulations.

Instead of trying to regulate websites, how about we create better privacy protections for our citizens, eh?
