You actually wish you were in a position where your mum would give you a hand job?

Must admit, I didn't see it from this angle. Perhaps because of my personal experience in life and the few people in my social circle have never been pressured into having kids, it's just not really been a thing in my 40 odd years on the planet. Perhaps cultural differences etc, either way adjusting my view point to be that of people constantly being pressured to have kids when they don't want kids/can't have kids allows me to understand the community's existence.

And it's taken sites down. It's almost as if this community doesn't know as much about security as it claims it does.

There is a reason I'm posting for a product. It's like saying you don't need to buy a ps5 to game when you can use your 15 in 1 game thing you have at home. Is not the same

Personally I think it's people like you that dictate how others should act and tell them what they're allowed to enjoy to be the cancer. There's a reason the world hates dictators.

You know I can't afford fancy clothes. So I just wear cheaper brands. I don't tell everyone wearing fancy clothes that there are cheaper brands available, I just let them be them and wear what they like. Maybe if I could afford it I would wear them too.

Really struggling to see everybody's problem in the thread. If you don't want to pay for an app don't. If you're happy with a less polished app use that. Why is everyone so intent on controlling what others should and shouldn't do when it has absolute zero bearing on them?

I'm a Dev, I spend lots of my time in Linux, some might call me a power user I've been doing it for a lot of years, probably longer than most. Yet I use windows on my personal machine, I use windows because I like the polish, I spend all my time fucking around in Linux to get stuff working stuff that just works out the box in other os. I get why Linux is good I get why people like it, personally I like an easier life, I don't want to spend 2 hours configuring some container to play a game or piece of software that would just work on windows. It's part of what you pay for. The apps are much the same, I've tried many of the Lemmy apps since I moved here, some better than others all fairly decent but sync has a polish and presentation that is unmatched (in my personal opinion, your experience may be different) and I'm happy to compensate a developer for his time spent building the app, he gets to eat I get to mindlessly scroll it's win win. Well it is until people start shitting their opinions all over the place.

To add to this the absolute worst thing religion does is try to force itself on others. Wouldn't be such a bad thing if it was just kept to itself. But nope. Like the saying; religion is like a penis, it's fine to have one, it's fine to be proud of it. But if you start waving it around outside and start trying to push it down my throat, we're going to have a problem!

I'm bald. I have to shave my head to achieve the look, shave my hair into a style if you like. Even if that style is the absence of hair.

With you on this.

I don't think religion causes war, but I definitely think it's used as an excuse to do unthinkable things to living, breathing and feeling people en masse, not to mention the damage to the planet and it's other inhabitants. Like you say religion is used to control people, people are willing to die for their religion, willing to turn on their children or vice versa.

Though I do get that for some people it brings them hope, allows them to be part of a community and other benefits. And even though it also fuels pure hatred, bigotry and racism and gives people personal allowances to commit atrocities. I wouldn't hold any negative feelings to those that do choose to take part in religion. Providing the religion stops before the evil starts, nothing too extreme, ya know. There's a line but hard to say where it's drawn.

Feels good to be using sync again. Hurry up with the lifetime one so I can give you my money!
