Won’t matter. As soon as those alternatives get big enough, they’ll either sell out or look for more ways to maximize profits. The Internet is wholely infected by corporations now. Just need better ways to beat them back somehow.

For me, I wouldn’t say it’s more enjoyable per se. I miss looking into interesting topics. However, I do find myself focusing on my business more which I guess is a bonus. But outside of that, it’s very disappointing the enshitification of the Internet that’s occurring.

Lol it’s like going back in time. I remember the days when sites wouldn’t support certain browsers because of differences in programming (accidental, if you will). Now, we’ve gone full circle and are intentionally blocking use of a site when not using a particular browser. Wouldn’t this be considered monopolistic?

I mean, it’s valid, if not for the incorrect reason. I personally fast past breakfast all the time , mainly because I’m not a huge fan of it. Otherwise, yeah…

This is also why most jobs should be unionized
