Lemmy users when I mention I pay for Youtube Premium
  • Yeah it's good assuming it's cheap. In the US, it's quite a bit more and I don't think I'd pay that much. These big companies know that charging that kind of money in India will get them nowhere and so even Spotify and Apple Music are super cheap.

  • I pay for it, but it's insanely cheap in my country. Family plan is like $1.5 a month lol. 5 or 6 users for that convenience is worth it in my eyes. I'd rather do that than make my parents, grandparents have to worry about ad blockers on all their devices.

  • I'm Indian. Funny thing is pronouncing it "Tai" with an Indian accent sounds awful. Imma stick with the wrong pronunciation because everyone else says "thigh" here anyway. Ofc the way people pronounce "thigh" in India is also different from the way people from the US would, so it's not as simple as that.

    Coming to you soon...
  • But not everyone does right? I feel like you have to be a fairly big/popular channel to have sponsors. I'm pretty sure smaller channels can only depend on ad revenue.

  • People don't like change. But I'm a hypocrite. I've tried switching to Firefox multiple times but I always go back, not even really sure why. I use it as a secondary browser these days.

  • Does anyone really claim that Firefox is faster than Chrome. There are certainly reasons to use Firefox over Chrome, but speed isn't one of them imo. I've always found it to be slower.

  • Fine, nvm. You're just not a very pleasant person. I do know what a lib is, it's just that a weird stereotype that all of them are over-sensitive is not really accurate.

  • Sure. Tbh I still use chromium, knowing that it may not be great in terms of privacy. I don't really use Google Chrome, but I do use chromium browsers. Reason being, I just don't give too much of a shit about my privacy. If it'll be the ruin of me, so be it.

  • I think it would just generally be stupid to say that. Boomers or no boomers. It sort of reflects badly on the organisation and I'm not even slightly suprised that they wouldn't be pleased about it. You seem weirdly angry.

  • Who uses chrome? Still the majority of people lol. The number of people who care a lot about privacy enough to stop using chromium is a pretty small percentage.

    Subscription models for an app that’s not hosting anything is just the dev wanting a constant revenue stream, no matter how they try to word it.
  • Not the best take. The apps still need to continue to be developed, adding new features and improvements along the way. That's the cost of development. Not everything is just the cost of infrastructure. By that logic, McDonald's workers shouldn't be paid because it's not their buns and patties, etc.

    Does a cat in a sack count?
  • Well, it's a cat. Why wouldn't it count lol, unless there's something specific about cats in boxes today (haven't used Lemmy today)

    Edit: guess we're doing cats in boxes today. Either way, I approve!
