reddit in shambles lol

moderators of /r/moscow got it back iirc btw

i’ve personally noticed that ppl on reddit have become a lot more racist overall in the past few months, esp visible bc i have a flair indicating that i’m from russia lol, idk if that’s directly related or not, just something i have observed

most toxic thread i’ve probably ever encountered was that was where the foreign policy chief said “europe is a garden, the rest of the world is a jungle, jungle can attack the garden”, like holy shit, i browse 4chan from time to time and it now seems like a less racist place 😬

why?

why not

point is, whatever the source of their money is, it looks like it’s not very renewable at the moment, so the last thing ppl should be doing it exploiting it with stupid applications of it

You aware if they wanted to stop piracy they would just limit its functionalities right?

limiting functionality to curb piracy would also limit that functionality for regular people, who want to use it for legitimate purposes, which is why i’m asking ppl to please not use telegram for piracy

how? just because something has the capability to be used in a certain way, doesn’t mean you should abuse it

please stop pirating using telegram, it’s a messaging service (with some elements of social media), not your cdn

this shit is run almost for free, from the money durov saved on his school lunches, using it as a cdn will break a good service for everyone, including the vast majority of people who just use it because it’s a good messaging service

i realize the implications of monarchy

these two irreconcilable perspectives weirdly coexist within me

ngl, i kinda feel sad

i grew up in england as a child, and was exposed to her and the british monarchy in general, and they were a significant part of my childhood, and i guess the combination of of the lack of responsibilities and the general impressionability of childhood just left me with a super warm, nice, pleasant, comforting feeling about her, she was kinda like my grandma…

and it inevitably feels sad to me when this part of my life goes away

but on the other hand, i realize the implications of monarchy, especially given the current crises in england, and very much think that monarchy is a bad thing, and so these two irreconcilable perspectives weirdly coexist within me…

can’t stop thinking about how amerikans think this war crime å of baking is classified as bread

interestingly, the youtube app on my phone doesn’t have ads at all (as of recently), most likely because companies don’t want to advertise in russia, but youtube still doesn’t want to pull out, because of potential future revenue (after the war ends), and they can still sell user data 😎

not very weird most likely, considering that there are significantly fewer ads and they’re much shorter in length than videos, therefore it makes sense to cache them in some way 🤷‍♀️
