If you want something manufactured in a country that isn’t commiting human rights violations then you are not going to find it (not even the US, which is also funding a genocide right now)

Who voted that government in?

I don’t like this, because one of the most used arguments in favor of capitalism is supposedly the free market and how you are allowed to make money doing what you like. If now it turns out that only a few things are classified as jobs then… where are the benefits of capitalism?

As an amateur artist, mastodon is really not friendly to newcomers like me.

I had to figure out what an instance was and pick one (I chose mastodon.art since I was interested in that)

After wondering why I couldn’t find other people’s accounts, it turned out that I shouldn’t have picked that instance because it had defederated from almost anyone else.

So now I had to create another account in another instance, which turned out to be so full my posts were not getting any traction.

With Bluesky I just created an account and I immediately gained a few followers

It is just not worth the hastle.

I think the problem with posts like this is that they are biased to the US. In real life, Facebook is still widely used outside the US, Twitter still has the majority of users and Instagram and Snapchat are used bye everyone.

Now watch as all the corporations that paused their advertising slowly return to the platform.

Tried it. The front page is nothing but conspiracy and crypto bullshit. So no, thanks.

What comments like this fail to understand is that people sometimes like to do nothing with their free time.

YouTube became as popular as it is because it fulfilled a necessity, for good or bad

Yeah, but that’s the thing, most of them have not abandoned Twitter, they have just created accounts elsewhere. For now, at least on the case of nsfw artists, leaving Twitter is unfeasible.
