I’ll give you the worse ones, primarily to ward you off from them.
AskReddit - Sometimes you’ll get some thought-provoking questions. But a lot of the time, you’ll find heaps of over redundant questions, all spread by just minutes to hours apart. A lot of questions I’ve noticed recently, are people so quick to karma farm that they’ll misspell their questions and just go for low-hanging fruit kinds. And then there’ll be questions that are sex-driven, ragebaiting and softly bordering around racism/sexism.
r/TooAfraidToAsk - Another cesspool of questions where people ask WAY too many sex-based ones and stupid plain questions that a simple 5 minute google search would take to answer. People love asking troll bait questions there.
Quora - It can’t stop nagging you to give them your info if you try reading answers on any question. It’s like AskReddit but 24/7 and the quality is a little above. But more or less, you’ll find yourself in the same jam.
A lot of users on Reddit have an intellectual security. They know that they actually know nothing about anything but treat their opinions as if they’re factual and insightful takes on issues and situations they likely never have experience or knowledge in. So they apply that, while looking at Google on the side or thumbing up other threads with similar situations to gather a response.
There’s nothing to be afraid of with saying ‘I don’t know’ but that doesn’t exist in their vocabulary, so rather than saying that, they demonstrate how little they actually know. And when confronted and contested by people who do know, that insecurity comes out and they flip into being a pretentious shit mongerer who’s got to now antagonize everyone around them in any way, because their insecurity is beaming for everyone to see.
They can’t handle anyone who’s more educated than they are. I guess they got to put that GED into use somehow.
They don’t have to say anything to let you know. Just watch and see the downvotes and maybe sometimes a reply that gives you the signs. That’s all you need to know.
Well, as I’ve said, he made that idea up in a time where it made sense and did well for it’s time. But it started to not be a feasible system every turn of the decade and by the time we’ve reached the 2000s, the idea simply isn’t cutting it anymore. Moreso in today’s time.
A lot of ideas that were made in the early 1900s through the 50s came about in a time where it made sense and did well, least for a while. But many variables since then just diminished it’s use. People aren’t making as much in 40 hours than they should and they aren’t making ends meet in those 5 days. People are expected now to have two jobs, more hours and no time for themselves or anyone around them.
Everything felt like they didn’t last nearly as long as they could’ve. You were shuffled a lot during a school day and you had so much crammed in to do within those 8 hours that you’re there.
I never liked school for the courses and all that. I liked school because of who I hung around and some of the memories I got through them.
Best - Reeses
Worst - Licorice/Twizzlers
It took me 8 full months, of tolerating a tenant’s loud vibrating music before I started calling police. Like, I don’t mind the kind of music where you can faintly hear it because it can be ignored. No, this fucker’s entitlement had the audacity to blare his shit so that not only can you hear it completely but also feel it. It was an absolute violation of the lease agreement to not have sound systems, yet here’s this fucker.
I call the police on him and they told him to cut it out. I go to my sliding door by the balcony and saw like several people pour out from there. All complaining about how they had to be told to keep the peace because again, entitled assholes be entitled assholes.
Since then, though, I’ve had to call the police on him again because he would sometimes think he’s crafty by doing that shit during days where management is closed. Like, dude, fuck you and your music.

It’s mainly because when everyone saw the “oh shiny” tech at first, they rushed it out as soon as possible with intent to replace people so that they can get away with doing less through AI.
Piss off with your entitlement.

So here we’re gonna just shovel out all of the cheap and selectively costly licenses on our services for you to watch. All so we can proclaim VaRiEtY.
Oh that show you remembered way back when? Fuck it, don’t know or don’t care! You’ll pay for what we selected for you and you’ll enjoy it.
Braindead streaming logic.
True but the guy was the one at fault and Proton had to comply. The French Activist was using ProtonMail e-mail for bad usages which is what it boiled down to. You left out the part where they complied with Swiss government yes but they didn’t with the French authorities.
Yet it still comes down to people’s own responsibility. But people love to throw that out the window and expect everything to protect them when they get up in shit.
The one and only critique I’ll give to Proton is how they have it where you can have Google e-mails forwarded to you to your Proton address.
And it’s like…why? The entire reason you’re going to ProtonMail is to escape Google. Why the hell would you want Google to try and pry into your Proton usage when all you want is to distance yourself from them?
That’s not a bad thing. Maybe some of us don’t want to be cluttered with a lot of things we don’t really care for on using. God forbid we go back to simpler days of communication whereas now we’ve got things like Discord trying to charge people to pay actual money to have fancy little animations for your profile picture.
Is that what you think is missing? Stupid pointless things that make you feel special because you paid money for it when the true attraction should be focused on how much communicating can be efficient and caring about your privacy and security?
Did you not see the score for my original comment? 43 unanswered downvotes. How can you sit there and tell me that there’s going to be an open and civil discussion that’ll come from with that? I’ve already had a few people throw the stone with their illogical commentary about what I’ve pictured with their frail attempts to defend their favorite browser.
And I got all of that, just from stating the original comment I said prior to the edit. But the ‘go to hell’ part was not the original comment.
So before more people jump down my neck about being civil, you ought to know what other people float about that go about antagonizing users or expecting negativity to come their way before they cry out to admins and mods, for something they gaslighted to!
…Do some research before you ever utter people’s names in a list again.
Bless the era of technology where Signal and ProtonMail exist.
We’ve lost some big ones this year alone, hadn’t we? I recall the early half of the year, that we lost some huge names or names that just shut down. Uloz flipped, still around but not what it once was. There was a lot of big names just gone all in this year alone.
But I see all of this as multi-pronged.
Aside from what everyone else has said. I will add that there could be people slipping into pirate ranks as a shill for these corps, gathering all that they can, slipping out to report.
There also could be loud-mouthed pirates, ruining it for everyone because they’re loud-mouths, gotta spread the shit all the way around. That gets the attention of the corps that just hover over and count the days at that point.
Hitler is the kind of person you’d revive, kill again and revive to kill again until he hits the number of holocaust victims. No one single solitary death is sufficient enough.
That goes for any other leader that has allowed their citizens to die or even allowed their soldiers to die recklessly.
