Leveraging people's property to trash their privacy and serve them ads is really a good way to get me to avoid an entire brand for everything.

You've been here for year and blocked 264 people, I mean this in the nicest way possible, but ever consider the problem is not the people you block? I think i've legitimately blocked maybe 20 people in my whole entire online life (I'm almost 40), most of it spent on platforms like Reddit.

But then I have a high aversion for echo chambers and only block obvious trolls, mostly to keep them from blowing up my notifications. I feel it's much better to just not give random strangers on the internet the power to actually affect your mood.

For some reason people expect things from Bluesky but people forget Bluesky is basicly just new Twitter. There's really no reason to expect "better" from this new platform.

Even though mom and pop stores are mostly dead, Amazon's market share is thankfully still relatively contained where I live. So it's still simply a matter of just picking a different "big box store" to order your things from.
