Being born into riches is extreme luck.

Or did most of us choose to live on hard difficulty?

(well most of us are probably on medium difficulty, do to the fact that we can post here)

I don't think I can

Due to Internet propaganda I will never not gag when I see something about autism speaks

It was a figure of writing in old chatrooms and bulletin boards.

Some sort of super community that are searchable (i.e. not something Clientside) and span multiple servers. The fragmentation of having the same few communities everywhere is my biggest issue here.

In general I want more and better discoverability of communities anywhere.

Like any cat, Linux is actually liquid and can flow over the whole sofa if it so chooses.

It could be a good product. I neither hate it nor like it.

I personally know someone in advertisement and viral marketing is more widespread than I think people realize. That is why I would like people to be sceptical about stuff that gets recommended with this kind of frequency (and IMHO with text in a tone that I've read in actual viral marketing campaigns) especially if the product is commercial.

This method of advertising is used because it works and as you can see by the backlash here merely suggesting that it could be an ad and asking people to be sceptical/cautious is taken as breaking a social taboo.

My intention is not to personally attack you just to get that out of the way. That is why I prefaced my statement with the tinfoil hat part.

I don't know if the company can afford that. I did not look into it enough but I know that viral marketing is not a very expensive marketing strategy and I hate it.

I can speak only on my experience here on Lemmy where I hear it mentioned with a rather high frequency and in ways that suggest to me that it could be an advert.

I will not apologize for being sceptical when it comes to commercial product recommendations and I suggest everybody do the same as viral marketing is extremely widespread in the modern net.

Like watching a movie you already watched? Having no perceived control over one's actions?

Yea that's called depersonalization...

Ok I need to put my tinfoil hat on for a moment but I think there is some viral marketing going on for it on Lemmy. The frequency I see it recommended or mentioned and the unorganic way it is brought up gives me advert vibes.

Not very surprising tbh. More reasonable even to call it a country than a person

I have horrible spelling and sometimes write in an archaic register. I also often write in a way that sounds rather aggressive which is not my intention most of the time. Ai helps me rewrite that shit and makes me more sensitive to tone in written text.

Of course just like normal spell check and auto completion feature one still needs to read it a final time.
