I don’t know that I’d consider this “mildly” infuriating. Good on you for having any semblance of composure!

This is exactly it. It seems like every service is raising prices with no noticeable improvement to the service itself. Hell, this would be easier to swallow if Spotify was going to pay artists more. There doesn’t seem to be any benefit to anyone other than Spotify’s bottom line, which I assure you, is doing just fine.

Completely agree. I think people are so engrained that they just don’t want to try something else.

That’s exactly it. I saw a lot of people on Twitter today saying they’re only staying the fallout. It’s dumb, and yes, I’m part of the problem, though I’m staying only to update some connections on where I’m going.

Nothing, I’m still there, unfortunately. Fact is, there just isn’t that much engagement here, and smaller niche subs that I like will have new posts daily on Reddit, but will sometimes take a week or more.

I like the idea of Lemmy quite a bit, and I appreciate the hell out of Memmy and Mlem (can’t decide what I like more), but I also am using Apollo still, and I may have to stick with that for a while.

Spotify because I’ve been on it since it was in beta, so my music recommendations are really good. I just don’t really feel like starting over.

I’m also grandfathered in with a deal where I get Hulu with it (Hulu has commercials but whatever, I don’t pay for it), so I don’t really feel like giving that up.

I might do this. I have some myself. What was the surgery like? What was the recovery like?

Frankenstein. If you’ve never read it, the caricature of what it is has done it no justice. It is an incredible book.

Questions like “When you’re sexing some sexy sex, how many sex do you sex?”

Let’s keep the immature high school/sad old desperate man horniness out of here.

My first one was NES. I was just the right age in the late 80s to be caught in all of it. Funny thing is, I don’t remember asking for it. I think my parents just got me one, but I fell in love with games from that point on.

Heck, my second system was the Genesis, and I didn’t ask, or know about it, either! One of the best memories I have of growing up.

Went to the movies with family friends. When I came back, my dad had set up the Genesis and had Altered Beast playing on the tv. Coming from only knowing the NES, my mind was blown.

Thanks for the excuse to walk down memory lane.

Same. I just wish there was an easy way to transfer. I just found the communities I wanted and I don’t look forward to making a new profile and adding them all again.

Oh that’s great!
