No one’s made a “pulling out” joke yet?

Repost bots are a soulless, sad attempt to bloat Lemmy with content.

Looks at !Superbowl vs !Capybara.

Both are clones of their Reddit counterpart, but Superbowls has actual fresh content from users here on Lemmy, and is quite active as a result.
Capybaras is just sad reposting from Reddit. Each post has little to no engagement

Just play Black Metal, they’re wearing corpse paint anyway

Must be playing Metalcore, I’d pummel them too

Each community, at some point in time, has to have someone with severe a case of Main Character Syndrome make a post that refers to another post where their feelings got hurt cuz their initial post didn’t get the exact kind of attention they wanted, which then results in a total shit fit in the comments.

I’ve seen it happen numerous times in my short time on Lemmy. Especially on !memes.

People need to learn how to just suck it up and move on ffs. I swear it’s the r*dditard mentality leaking in here.

“Hold on honey, I’ll learn how to fix this pipe that’s burst, once I watch these 3 ads, complete this survey, redeem these rewards, finish this captcha and confirm my email.

Oh, this video isn’t available in Canada.

Even though it was made in Montana, literally a few miles from here.”

The group literally known as “Anonymous” would like a word

How… how could you possibly start trying to profit off of a major resource for accessibility to movies. That’s scummier than scummy. Fuck you OpenSubtitles, you’re the fucking Elon Musk and Steve Huffman of deaf people everywhere. Get absolutely fucked.

Oh, no harm done then, lets keep allowing every online resource to implement shitty money grabbing tactics

This unfortunately helps sets a precedent for what the internet is going to look like in the future. Even the most basic things will be behind a paywall.
You cant even read a fucking news article from New York Times, who made 173.91 million dollars last year

Textbook shooting yourself in the foot, I really don’t know what they were hoping to gain. You already had a long-lasting reputation in the online community, now you’re a fucking scab

THEN ASK PEOPLE TO DONATE, how tone-deaf can you be about your own community?? What the fuck do they think Wikipedia is doing?
I’ve found pirates & FOSS enthusiasts are FAR more likely to donate into something they use regularly and appreciate, this is a blatant slap in the face to those people.

My wife is deaf, and I take this VERY fucking personally. This is predatory to an already (unfortunately) overlooked demographic of movie lovers, I will absolutely rally against this bullshit.

THE BALLS TO EVEN OFFER A “BLACK FRIDAY” DEAL, HOLY FUCK

No no no, you gotta NUKE it, man

You gonna have any memes left over for tomorrow?

Metal_Zealot, 10 months ago

The director of the fucking Maze Runner movies?

Really?

I opened this at work and got fired

Lol you went back for the porn

So… at the risk of humiliating myself,
I’ve never once used a VPN in my entire life.

I pirated games, movies, shows, music, software… and the worst thing that happened to me was getting a letter from Telus once or twice saying “Hey. Don’t do that.”

That was 5 years ago

I know it’s bad practice. But is a VPN 100% necessary? Even a free one?

If liking pumpkin flavored stuff means you’re white, then I’m fucking albino

I’ve used MP3tag to fix a lot of my downloads, it pulls from Discog.com, and you can edit multiple items manually.

Not sure if this is necessarily something that’d help your situation, but I also am trying to get away from Spotify. Too many missing songs…
