why do some people really dislike google??

i don’t want to offend anyone, but some open source/privacy enthusiasts dislike google, but why?? google has made chromium, android, etc and most of the things they do are open source, and not only that, they also support creative commons media or public domain. i know the privacy concernes they may have, but they would never...

People tend to dislike google because they collect a ton of data on you and you can’t ever be sure they aren’t selling it to other companies.

A lot of people talk about the steam refund policy however I just don’t trust that I will get my money back even though it’s a “non questions asked” kinda deal. If I’ve given them $80 for a game, they can easily decide to just keep it…

Some good points! Thanks for sharing!

I don’t trust the refund policy. If they have a so called refund policy why not force every published to add a 1-2 hour free trial instead? We should be able to try games and evaluate before the money leaves our pockets.

They don’t really market their refund policy. And, I know they have a 2 hour playing window. However, what if you’re really into the game and you play 2.5h non-stop not realizing and they you decide to refund but can’t. Sometimes it can take up to 10 hours to actually evaluate if a game is good. Some games have tutorials which can take 1-2 hours if you read everything and play at a slow pace at which point you’re locked out of refund. I don’t support their refund policy at all actually.

I love supporting good games and awesome studios. What I don’t like it getting screwed because screenshots and trailers look cool and they game turn out to be shit and still cost me $50.

I get what you’re saying but do you realize how time consuming and cumbersome that is, even if it’s the proper way to do it.

Good point!

I personally don’t think so. You’re free to do what ever you want with any system that is obsolete and not supported.

Spot on!

Do you think lemmy would be as popular as reddit?

Hi, do you think lemmy would be as popular as Reddit ? I mean, many subreddits have much more posts compared to communities on lemmy… sometimes I scroll through Reddit sub top of month and see no end. At lemmy mostly I see 10 posts monthly… I do like concept of moving to lemmy, but it might make no sense if people’s are no...

Lemmy has potential, sadly paid software will always be the king in the consumer space. Marketing plays a big roll too. I don’t see lemmy being bigger than Reddit sadly.

I’m using Eternity but every single client I’ve tested lack mod tools so most of them are a no no for me.

Definitely. Although some are expensive for no reason so it’s important that you do your research and buy a mattress that is of high quality.

This is like asking how long a rope is.

It all depends on how many users you have making requests daily.

If the instance is only for you then you could host it at home on a $50 Raspberry Pi.

The company OceanGate have constructed a DIY submersible, that’s not been tested, regulated, checked, or certified.

The CEO of the company and four civilian passengers have gone on this submersible on an expedition to the Titanic wreck.

They’ve since lost contact with the crew. The oxygen is calculated to run out today.

It’s a huge rescue operation.

Tor is probably your best bet.

Brave would be my second choice.

Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on Lemmy than Reddit?

I am theoretically switching over from Reddit to Lemmy. Finding myself spending more time on Lemmy than on Reddit. Maybe it's because I am limited to using the desktop and can't aimlessly browse Reddit on my iPhone. Of late, the only subreddits I cared for were on sports and their matchday threads and r/watches. I found myself...

99% time on Lemmy, 1% on Reddit telling people to migrate to Lemmy.

So why do I still see posts from them in my subscribed feed?
