I don’t know about you but I find these bot posts actually useful! And there’s healthy discussion too which is the point of lemmy?

Have you or your parents never used a phone book to look up businesses and ended up calling A1 Plumbing, AAA locksmith, etc?

Interesting… I switched away from Samsung and actually hated stock Android!

• I actually preferred One UI to the standard pixel, mainly because Google ruined the quick settings - they made each button unnecessarily big, and turning on/off the wifi requires two taps instead of one now (Internet > Wifi). That’s something I can’t change without rooting.
• Some Samsung stock apps are actually a great alternative to the android ones (I use Samsung Notes a ton). The only downside is they force you to download it through their own app store.
• Samsung doesn’t really have much bloat now, and the few pieces of bloat i found could be uninstalled
• Samsung is still the only phone manufacturer with triple camera setups in a small flagship phone

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not perfect, but the issues I had with Samsung were solvable (e.g. uninstalling bloat is a one-time thing) while the annoyances I’ve had with a Pixel aren’t solvable (quick settings, no third camera).

So basically, bosses can’t deal with the fact that they can’t step out of their room and yell at people, and therefore still want to inconvenience everyone.

I mean, trump was crazy to suggest injecting bleach, but maybe eating it on a side salad helps with covid?

(please don’t try this)

But the whole “Have your boss or subordinate over for dinner” BS was never my thing.

TBH I truly think it was a boomer invention that died in the 80s, because nobody I know ever did anything like this willingly.

That was for a different time and era when company loyalty was a thing. When you intended to work for a company for decades, forming relationships with your boss actually meant something.

Nowadays employees are just disposable assets, so why bother forming deep bonds with your coworkers?

what are those things?

you can try selecting “don’t recommend this channel” on some of the more radical ones!

damn, there are more top mods than i thought! I remember stumbling on one “powermod” but it turns out they aren’t even on this list.

hey you’re the guy who didn’t shit, how did that go!

yes, you can! you just have to search for “all” instead of “local” under Communities!

just google actually!

if you ignore beehaw (which is a bit of an oddball case), most of the main instances are federated, aren’t they?

Beans are an excellent source of vegetable protein and minerals such as iron, magnesium and zinc. They are rich in folic acid, an element associated with the reduction of such birth defects as Spina Bifida, and they also protect against heart disease. Beans are also a good source of non-lactic calcium.

you can stick with your instance and view across the fediverse (mostly) fine!

I would imagine running YouTube is still a net loss for Google.

I doubt it, youtube generates about 30 billion in revenue per year!

every time it lags, it’s because youtube has to send someone down to the basement to retrieve the correct blu-ray disc from a storage room

I started !workreform@lemmy.world about 2 weeks ago, and now it has an estimated 3.4-4k subscribers (depending on how the subscriber statistics work) and people are posting stuff.

It takes time, and it takes some effort on the part of the creator.

But you’re right, some communities will grow faster than others. I think there’s a balance between creating communities that are too broad vs super-specific communities for now!
