If you do not want to support then stop consuming which can not do because everything needed or wanted is all controlled/produced by the same owner class and switching companies means switching between different companies all owned by the same owner class just like news and newspapers
Same scam that is done on elections to give the illusion of choice but the puppet master never changes face just the puppets
No other companies to switch to for baby formula, diapers, bottled or otherwise water, foods by any brand all same owner at the beginning of the chains, all media is all owned at the very top by the same owner class, movies including super hero ones all owned by that same entity, vehicles that move us and products around all owned by the same people even if the countries are different and the names changed at the very very top are the same owner class
Got us plain and simple
Fuck off with that 'both sides the same' bullshit. We've very conclusively proven that no, one side is much fucking worse.
one side may be worse but the less evil side is still working with the more evil side just like how the DNC went
Uh huh...
Evil Joe Biden controls the supreme court, amirite?
🤣
I love user tags and vote tracking for this exact reason. It makes spotting these repeat posters SO much easier:
Is that an app? I've been hoping someone makes a desktop client that improves the lemmy experience like the reddit ones used to do
Yeah, it’s Voyager. You can long-press on a username to add a user tag. And if you come across the same account later, editing the tag will give you a button to jump to the comment you originally used to tag them.
It also automatically tracks votes, so that
[-6]is my running vote total for this user. So I tend to downvote them pretty often compared to upvotes. It makes spotting trolls/idiots a lot easier.Lastly, (though it isn’t marked here) it will add a baby emoji to any accounts that are new. That one is nice because you often find brand new accounts posting really divisive shit, and they’re obvious troll/astroturf accounts once you realize they’re freshly made.
Yeah I'm still bouncing between apps bc none of them have all of what I want (mostly to do with swipe gestures plus picture and video functionality--basically trying to replace sync but nothing lives up to it). But at least the new user icon shows up on desktop these days.
