I'd say their decision making was mostly forced by their drop in ad revenue and subscriptions forced by the internet.
Though I do wish that someone would make a Spotify for news so that I could pay once and get access to all of them and at least give them 10 cents per article or something, because I will never pay the subscription cost any are asking.
As much as I'd like to support them, the price to utility ratio is way the fuck off at the prices they ask now.
Wow, even mafia behavior. Hardcore.
As much as I hate the US hegemony, the only path to world peace in the past has been when there is one or maybe 2 dominant powers. The more multipolar the world becomes, the more war breaks out all over the place.
And if we must have a hegemon and our choices are the US, Russia, or China, I will take the US. Though I would take the EU over all of them if they could muster the unity to pull it off.
I'm just honored I hogged up 3 whole replies when thousands are out there waiting!! I'd best release you to your adoring public.
You are not Lemmy, and Lemmy is not you. But maybe I was too harsh in saying it's not important.
IMHO Lemmy should be fun, not a responsibility. ITT if it starts to become a burden, you should just relieve yourself of the burden by pressing the mark done button.
But having fun is also important, so I take that back. And you are important to me, Stamets, but you are not Lemmy, and Lemmy is not you.
solid ass snake
Nothing on Lemmy is important ;-)
Thanks for all the fishes Stamets, I release you from having to reply to my comments. Isn't there a mark all read button?
I'll take whatever ass I can get
Buying a house and having kids. Man I spent so much time in that godforsaken place.
You've got to master the shortcuts and often enter from the exit. It can be forced into some semblance of usability with enough practice. But I wouldn't wish the practice on anyone.

I used Kagi for a few months when other engines failed. It did come through a few times. But paying $5 a month to get one extra good search result per month was a hard sell for me. If they offered a much much smaller package of lime 20-50 searches per month or just pay as you go, I'd definitely be in.
