In other news, I just came back to Twitter to complain to Uber about how shit they are, and it seems that I have zero notifications from any of the accounts I care about. Seems they all left as well :-)
@grok@Uber_Support Well Uber haven't tried to destabilise entire governments like Elon, but they do seem to actively support Trump, so I suppose, from a purely political POV, they're equally garbage. Dark Patterns all around. I guess they're equally terrible? Musk more so in a tie breaker though...
@Uber_Support Hey, stop pushing Uber One down my throat. On both the ride app, and the eats app, I get constant spam to join Uber One. I Never Will. Stop it. Take my account off the list that you push this garbage at. Seriously. Take a look at yourselves.
@hamishogilvy@AlboMP It just won't work. The kids are flexible and will work out ways around this. The law is doomed to fail, and fail expensively and embarrassingly.
Shifting to bsky. Will continue to occasionally check things out over here, but it's so much nicer over there without the bots and the rage farmers. Hopefully see you there!
@invictus4LTBH@RomesBlog@InternetH0F I apologise, it's really late where I live, and I need to go to sleep. Best wishes to you, and I hope, whatever our respective moral codes, that you have a great day 👍
@invictus4LTBH@RomesBlog@InternetH0F It's subjective, but the overall result of this is equivalent to any morality espoused by any religion. Arguing that a moral code enforced by free thinking individuals is "subjective" is up there with saying water is wet.
@Strongsmell01@Locke50739371@InternetH0F Every culture has a version of "do unto others as you would have them do unto you". That's pretty much the only rule you need. If you're not a masochistic psychopath, then in the aggregate, that creates a good society.
@thebeautifulage@keylimepie2000@tawnniee@paulg They're free to do so, but they'd be idiots if they did so. If you're sitting on the fence on this one you aren't listening to what's being said.
@awesomekling The answer won't be what you're after, and will be very nuanced to the point of invalidating the question, but I think industries that challenge the devs and don't overwork them will be higher in both mental and physical health.
