I’m glad they’re adding support, but I also feel like this is a hard one to sell to the general public. If it creates a better experience, word will get around about it, but going on stage and talking at length about how there’s a new messaging protocol would have been a challenge for non-technical viewers
I just read they decided to default it to off. They should remove it entirely imo, but with this move, it costs IT departments $0 and 0 hours of their time to worry about.
I think business + government + education usage is more important for them than personal, and as long as this costs them nothing, I doubt it makes a dent in anyone’s plans. Could have been an apocalypse if defaulted to on though.
I don’t think Steam supports any sort of sliding scale system and they have a price parity rule which would be broken by offering it elsewhere
(for demonstration purposes only, please don’t think I’m like this)
I could be wrong, but I don’t see a path forward for Biden, and I think the Israel/Palestine conflict is a big part of it. It’s so polarizing among Democrats/leftists. Biden will either be viewed as a genocide supporter or an anti-semite, and it’s very difficult to find any sort of middle-ground. I don’t think Republicans are as emotionally invested in it - they just don’t want to see too much money sent away.
I’d place Twitch in that spot before Tiktok as well. Bordering on unusable for years

Millenials were the original “avocado toast” generation targeted by boomers. We’ve been conditioned to protect our young from the real babies in these older generations. But there are good ones and bad ones in every generation.
yes and you can also leave out a plate of cookies where you want a strong signal so the wifi waves will go there when they’re hungry
I still read Reddit sometimes, but I don’t have an account anymore. It’s like reading Facebook posts now. Really, really low quality content. It’s sad, but I like the community here. Lemmy is more like what Reddit was 15ish years ago.
We’re all gonna get old and some of us are going to get dementia. I have a hard time pointing at vulnerable people whose brains are nearly expired and saying “Haha jeez what noobs, how could they be such idiots?”
Win or lose, I’m not worried about how it looks in hindsight. The way I see it is we’re doing the best we can with the information we have at this time. It wasn’t looking good for him.
The effects of this change will also be much bigger than this election alone. It’s a jump-start in rebuilding the identity of the party into something that might actually interest voters.
