In feudalism, you know full well you're being exploited. In capitalism, you might not be aware of it, but you still are. The idea is that you're being paid for your work but, if the pay is so little that it might as well not matter to the payer at all, and is hardly a living wage, then we're essentially back at square one.

Granted, I don't think we're as close to the grain of outright slavery that feudalism was, but on a long enough timeline, we will be. Companies will want more and more profit, taking more and more from the consumers and working class. People will either fight back or... put up with it.

I usually delete it and pick a different torrent.

Twitter.

Insanely popular online yet I've never met a single soul in real life who even has an account. My cousin literally just made his first one to promote his band, like a week ago.

imo, Mastodon replaces Twitter, and effectively would if everyone moved at once. Most news, if it isn't there is mirrored there.

There is the whole trans porn and titties situation on any default account, tho, same as lemmy.

You know why we say it's the year of the Linux desktop, every year?

Because every year is the year of the Linux desktop.

If I don't eat beef, there's not much incentive to create better alternatives so that I don't.
