Remember when Big Sugar™ did that study on how sugar is beneficial? Is this that again?

Yep, I’m using wefwef.app now, which is also very nice. Still have Jerboa installed for when it’ll be compatible with beehaw again.

I would be okay with it if the amount of ads and their length was reasonable, like one in the beginning and one at the end or something. For a longer video I wouldn’t even mind one at the midway point.

I didn’t start using adblockers until I was literally inundated and bombarded and sometimes with ads running the length of movie (no, literally).

It completely ruins the experience. I’m happy to support my creators directly though and I do.

Aw, man… Boo.

And to think, Greta inadvertently took him down. What a timeline we live in.

I mean, yes, that is true for your spare time. But with the way things are working now, everything has to happen immediately, you might feel you need to be available 24/7, even if you don’t technically.

Work in general is more fast-paced because of it (emails and phone calls over snail mail), everything you do is attached to your phone making it difficult to turn it off (banking, cards, travel apps, dating apps etc).

In the purest sense, yes, you can take breaks from it all, but it’s still there, and while I don’t think it’ll happen anytime soon, I do believe we’d benefit as a society from being less chronically online (I say writing this on an app for a federated social media site, but y’know, small steps).
