I meant investors of the media publishers, not the creators of the DRM.

Publishers certainly know it doesn’t work but their investors probably demand that they “do something”.

I’m convinced it has something to do with appeasing ignorant investors.

Biggest evidence of that is Epic will give away games for free, but there will be people who prefer to pay for the Steam version over the free version.

Ehhh as much as I’d like to think that’s true, I think that has more to do with managing a bunch of clients and launchers. And also that those clients and launchers are full of spyware and bloatware and ads.

I used to not buy anything on Epic but then I got Heroic Launcher and now I’m not so terribly opposed to it. I have the Steam launcher and then I have HGL for Epic, GOG, and Amazon.

ReVanced is not a modded YouTube app. None of these are.

Well there’s a very realistic 3rd option where people get tired of the cat and mouse game and either suck it up and watch the ads or pony up for YouTube premium…?

It’s 8 o’clock and this website has no dark mode. No thanks.

Sorry to be that guy but if the tapes were never preserved it’s probably because nobody cared…

Proton indexes your mail also now and I’ve had the exact opposite experience. Gmail and G Workspace in general is a fucking shitshow to find absolutely anything.

It’s an unfortunate arbitrary limitation Apple puts on their devices.

helenslunch, to movies in Gen Z is turned off by onscreen sex, wants no-mance over romance, a new study finds
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

I’m 36 and had internet porn since before I got puberty.

But yeah, I agree. I skip sex scenes now. I don’t feel like they add anything. Like you can just cut out all the nude backs and moaning and nothing of value would be lost. We get it, they had sex, move on.

helenslunch, to asklemmy in No politics inteded: Why isn't Trump after leaving office in any way or shape involved in politics say as member of congress or senate?

I mean there are a myriad of ways to avoid this:

  1. Log out
  2. Use container tabs or profiles in your favorite browser
  3. Use dedicated apps like FreeTube, GrayJay, NewPipe, Invidious, LibreTube, etc. that don’t even ask for a login.

So is there an easy way to migrate all your stuff to some other email service and what are some good ones?

So you can set up a free Proton Mail account and then connect it to your Google account and it will begin archiving all of your emails, past and future. It also has a way better web client than Gmail (not saying much).
