AdGuard or uBlock won’t save you
I’ll just do what I always did on websites that think they have a say in the matter: leave and never come back.

Probably “never buying anything from a shitty company that does that”.
I already pay for commute.
If the company isn’t paying me for extra 10 minutes, they’re not getting free 10 minutes.
It shouldn’t be your problem if the next shift doesn’t show up on time.
When I used to work shifts you bet the employer paid for every extra minute I had to wait for the next guy - it’s the law.
Then shifts should have an overlap.
I know they don’t and won’t, but there’s no good reason not to do it, except that the company would make a bit less money.


It actually happens more than you’d expect.
Sometimes you even get fewer bugs on Proton.
One of the best examples was the release of FF7 Remake - it had really bad stutter on release on Windows… but not on Proton.
People even used DXVK (which is part of Proton) on Windows in an attempt to fix it.


Countries? Don’t be ridiculous.
And any company that made itself so dependent on unproven bullshit kinda deserves it.


You see, that’s the fun thing.
Android will still technically allow sideloading, they’ll just make it difficult and scary for average user, and annoying for devs.


That sucks, because they’re one of the only ones supporting Wayland, and I don’t like using software from shady companies…
If I remember correctly it avoids the streaks by taking several long-exposure photos and then combining them.


Optimization? Did you mean to write monopolistic, anti-competitive, and unethical practices?
Because if there’s one thing Nvidia knows how to do, it’s to play dirty.
Tidal doesn’t even have anything over Spotify.
Their version of Spotify Connect barely works at the best of times, on my AV I couldn’t get it to work at all.
And Qobuz… isn’t even available in a bunch of countries.
For me, the only real alternative is piracy and setting up my own streaming.
But I’m too lazy for that, so with Spotify at least the artists get paid something, and I can be reasonably certain that whatever I want to listen to will actually be available.
Also, Bandcamp was sold a while ago and fired half their staff, so not sure about ethics here.


Yeah, I remember, now we still have Windows being vulnerable, but in addition we also have untested changes pushed automatically to paying customers.
Forced updates are great!


Sure looks like a paywall to me, except you get a choice of a currency you can pay with.


Yeah, what they really do is worse.
They just remove your ability to buy/play the original, so literally everyone loses.


No, Switch 1 was non-compliant as well.
Making USB-C chargers and docks is cheap and easy, there’s thousands on the market.
But Nintendo had to be assholes and did things their way, as usual.
They’d probably enjoy free publicity.
What does it matter which ad company is it? They’re all kinda shit.


And, like I said, that’s a niche.
I’d love to use GrapheneOS myself, but unfortunately too many apps I need won’t work on it.


That’d make them even more of a niche option than right now, since some apps (most notably banking) will just refuse to work.
Maybe? It’s not like google search is worth much these days.
