It came out in 2017 so in the beginning of his reign still. Not surprised,,, Fortnite is a scourge on my mind as Trump is a scourge on the american people.

Used to be heavy in the business, still have ~32,000 songs left of my collection it used to be a few thousand more.

Got into it back when I had no regular internet access, where you'd have to grow your music on your own and seasons make all the difference in going outside to find a wifi hotspot and then download a list of albums that you prepared for beforehand by doing hours of research in your free time at 1 MB/s, during good hours, sitting in the freezing cold watching LibreTorrent or Freezer 24/7 on your old phone because it didn't have enough RAM to actually store an app and let it work in the background. And at the same time hoping the years-old battery would hold enough power left to last the 2 hours it took you to go home. For multiple years in succession, downloading at least 20 albums at each opportunity.

Yeah, I did some work for my collection. It's why I also can't delete it, had I deleted it within a month it would be different, but after multiple years it would feel too much of a waste. It's a monument of the same time frame in which an incredulously important person to me partook in. The first few months of this year were my second deepest spot ever, and thus I got incredibly bored of everything and, because of that, couldn't get into an artist at a time anymore, if at all. I came to the conclusion that ignoring the problem is the only thing I could realistically do, so my mood never improved or decreased, it was just a plateau that's depressing to look back at. Beginning of September I found the band Waterparks for myself and recently started expressing myself more how I want it (:3). The switch-up really fueled me to question if I could actually had a chance at being passively moderately happy, after almost two decades of having felt pretty much nothing. Music represents me, I couldn't.

Wow, I'm rambling high again, sorry not sorry >:3

Something about a novel

Agreed. My comment was more meant as an affront towards what mobile webpages are becoming in general. I only ever browse on my phone if there really is no other option at all.

Years of using the Links browser in my youth might have shaped my views though.

Not enough Minecraft Parkour gameplays

Thankfully there aren't as many great mobile webpages left anymore that I would really care about if they made me use their app. Pre-Edit: I think thankfully is the wrong word.

I would go as far as to encourage it >:3

Depends how Firefox processes those screenshots, would be my guess.

 

This is just a short rant and is not meant to insult anyone already on here, or further newcomers that joined, join or will still join. Also reminder that this is based on my experience and not necessarily facts, YMMV.

Anyways, in the last few days I've noticed that for some reason, especially on the r/piracy sub (although other subs are of course no exception), that there has been a more positive sentiment towards spez (the CEO of Reddit) and a very negative one against the mods and the protest.

I can understand that a protest which you don't want to take part in may be a breach of your apathy - though what we protest will sooner or later affect everyone, not just those that want to continue using 3rd party apps. I'm guessing they just don't (want to) understand. I'm just gonna leave the following quote here do with that what thou wanteth:

"There's something extremely pathetic about complaining about a problem that only concerns you, but wanting to pull everyone along"

On another note they're also calling everyone who participates in the protest and or makes a comment about alternatives a "mod bootlicker". I want to thank OtakuA* and everyone who does what they do for spreading the word, even when bombarded with downvotes which sadly and disappointingly does happen.

What really got me over my shadow to write this rant (and first post actually) though, was the following reply I got, in return for agreeing with someone and calling the people bootlickers:

"You're shilling for a different company lmfao...pot calling the kettle black..."

I still haven't figured out what they meant? I don't want to call myself smart but maybe I'm not stupid enough to understand?

Anyways, I expected nothing but was still majorly disappointed with the people over at r/piracy where I thought they would be most in favor of the protest.

I hope this rant is coherent enough to understand and that some of you get what I'm saying. I'm not looking for solutions personally I just wanted to get this out. If there are grammatical errors I'm sorry English is not my first language and I also didn't want to read over this post too often otherwise I overthink and delete without posting.

Tl;dr: Admin bootlickers call protesters & supporters "mod bootlickers", me mad

I hope this post shows up I'm posting from kbin - I also didn't look if there were other posts about this already because I wanted to say this asap
