Just give people who reach $10m net worth a “Congratulations you won at capitalism” diploma and tax them 100% after that

The key part here is that (at least initially…) they won’t put any existing subreddits behind a paywall. So users’ habits won’t really be interrupted.

Especially a password vault… Imagine your server going down while you are away from home and suddenly you’re locked out of everything.

It’s probably implied that if not enough people take this offer - people will be fired.

I’ve been through tech layoffs. Random people are axed and people who thought about leaving anyways stay. This is a much better solution where those who considered leaving anyways can take them up on the offer.

Maybe they just want to downsize cause there isn’t as much to do nowadays when the OS is so mature?

Yeah, and I have a Galaxy Watch 6 and my wife has a Galaxy S23 (not sure if there is any “ecosystem” benefit of us both having Galaxies though…)

I guess I could wait to see what the Pixel 10 has in store but then again - why get a Pixel when you are not going to use what is Pixel about it? I’m in Europe so I don’t get all the smart features of the Pixel - I just get vanilla Android with worse hardware than the competitors. But a nice camera which I like. Haven’t tried the Galaxy camera app in a while!

I’m on a Pixel 7 Pro and was considering moving to S25 Ultra this year but it’s really hard to understand whether it’s a good phone when all impressions are about how similar it is to last year’s model…

And last year’s model was very similar to the model released the year before that.

So essentially it’s not much of an upgrade if the S25 Ultra at large is similar to the S23 Ultra which was available at the time I got my P7P…

Eh, I don’t think I should use my phone more while in bed…

I said in my final paragraph that Lemmy is nice but there is so little content here. The communities I frequent here (with very active reddit counterparts) have like a submission every few days. Just check !football@lemmy.world for example.

I’m on Pixel 7 Pro and after this winter (dry hands) I’m leaning towards iPhone. I’m so sick of failing the fingerprint scanner 3-4 times before having to resort to the pin code.

FaceID worked so well on the Pixel 4 XL - why isn’t any Android manufacturer picking it up??

My first gig as a software developer offered Fedora23 I think it was if you wanted Linux. Would be interesting to see how much has changed but I don’t really have a machine to just throw fedora on

I was close to it. I’m an advocate for paying for services I use. We’re way too used to getting everything for free and we should be willing to pay for services we appreciate.

Which made me realise that Facebook especially I don’t appreciate. So I quit instead. It had value to me once but those times are long gone.

Feels like something that can be very frustrating unless they get it perfectly right

Who cares, we’re leaving an economy where no one cared about profitability. Just growth. It’s all about whether they can capitalize on that growth now.

Spotify was the same. Turned a profit the first quarter after shifting the focus towards profitability.

I’ve never seen the view of an IPO so heavily affected by bias. Superusers hate Reddit but so what - what matters is whether soccer moms are scrolling and being shown ads. No one cares that the most costly users are unsatisfied. You and me both are nothing to investors.

Is there some objective analysis of this IPO? All I’m seeing is “I’m a superuser who spent a lot of time on Reddit in 2007 and it was far superior back then. The stock will tank.”

Much harder to get distracted with a pen and paper. Main reason I use it.

Ah, might be! It’s been 10+ years since I tried it. Back then I found it very hard to navigate

Same with Lightroom vs Darktable.

I have been a loyal Firefox users for years but I would lie if I didn’t say I get tired of websites not working.
