@icedquinn IME, if they didn't, you might've

A) been on shit that blocked their action (SSRI/SNRI/NDRI, anti-anxiety, antipsychotics - aside, yes they are some of the most commonly-prescribed drugs)

or

B) didn't know your source

@icedquinn Yes and the government wants you addicted but only to their specific brand of drug :blobcatcoy:

@icedquinn But also definitely no mushrooms and yes we will continue to count busts as if (weight_mycelium_substrate == weight_psilocin)

@icedquinn I wish it came in smaller cartons. I can only handle like one sip per year.

@georgia I've had this one but it was my desktop and they were watching me recover from it to recruit me into a sekrit hacking ring

@vriska @icedquinn t'was a cruel summer

@kaia @whiteline reminds me of https://freekeene.com/2016/09/09/how-to-mail-a-2-cent-letter/ turns out ZIP codes are expensive.

@icedquinn try some cacao rasa

@georgia imagine the poop

@Suiseiseki @SuperDicq @georgia Examples from my favorite piece of proprietary software to rag on, Discord:

"custom notification sound"
https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/search?filter_by=community&query=custom+notification+sound&utf8=%E2%9C%93

and "hide mobile status (without going invisible)"
https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/search?filter_by=community&query=hide+mobile+status&utf8=%E2%9C%93

Both of which, despite having thousands of +1s, I guess they consider "won't implement"

for #1) probably because it's a conditioning psyop, you hear a sound in a video and compulsively check your notifs.

for #2) probably because the devs are creepy stalkers

@SuperDicq @georgia Yes, we see join/quit spammers in IRC running iOS software, 2 lines every 20 minutes

@sun @waifu I've learned it's a very fine line to ride between "slow and specific enough to be accessible for everyone" and "overly detailed, not fast enough for powerusers"

It's like the bell curve but inverted - a notch filter to target the most people to help in the shortest time possible.

@sun @waifu

In the algo's eyes:

not enough overproduced dubstep intro

not enough "hey guys today we're going to"

not enough "smash that bell, like the subscribe button"

not enough waffling about for 30% of the video talking about your other projects nobody cares about

= shit promotion rating

@georgia NewPipe/LibreTube competitor dropped. Though it's not FOSS, the Privacy Policy does seem pretty sensible.

Louis Rossman got in shit for mentioning it, so that's something.
