Same here, I really like driving, it can be fun and (sometimes) relaxing and there is no better place to sing along to some songs.

At the same time I try to avoid driving as much as possible, I take the bike, walk, take the train, no matter the weather. I don't want to be one of those cars sitting at the red light, using up space, polluting the environment and giving our local parties the idea, that we need that one more lane.

Some things are more important than a few convenient minutes.

It's hard to relate, because I wouldn't even know if there are businesses in my area which only use facebook - because I don't use facebook.

I wanted to use a business that wanted me to send them pictures of my drive way via Whatsapp. I ended up taking my business to a different guy, who was able to work with mail. No harm done, everyone is still happy, still no need for Meta products.

Edit: of course I acknowledge that I don't know anything about you or your situation. You maybe really can't work/live without facebook.

You are absolutely right of course, I was a bit sarcastic in the comment above. I firmly belive that the pursuit of a more convenient live will be our downfall - in terms of privacy, but also e.g. in terms of traffic (cars are very convenient but shouldn't be the future for the masses).

It is easier to live without facebook, than you think.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 months ago (4 children)

Yes, it is easier for you to continue using Whatsapp. At least you tried.

That's the neat part - you don't! Fuck Adobe.

Who puts up with this shit anyway? Go buy an Apple. You can eat it while installing Linux.

Yes, convenience is the main reason people like you use discord. But there are many reasons against using it and I am sure you know all of them, so no need for a discussion.

Just wanted to highlight: you are part of the discord problem.

"Hop on the discord server".. Boooo. What happened to the good old Forum. Searchable and all.

Follow me on instagram for more great criticism.

Lemmy interpreted the * as something cursive. I try to edit it like I mean it.

Sorry to hear, I feel you:

I wanted to delete all .m3u-files in my music collection when I learned:

find ./ -name "*.m3u" -delete -> this would have been the right way, all .m3u in the current folder would have been deleted.

find ./ -delete -name "*.m3u" -> WRONG, this just deletes the current folder and everything in it.

Who would have known, that the position of -delete actually matters.

Thanks for the hint with hide-my-email! I will ask my mail provider, if they offer something like this as a service.
