Also gen z : ughhh… I only have 300 followers what am I doing wrong!? 😫
The literal irony of selling glasses while also talking about how people can’t afford shit and are doomed to pay forever…holy crap
Convenience beats owning things. 99.999% of non-techies I’ve talked to do not want to manage their computer or media. They don’t want to learn how things work or how to fix them. The video says it, “… it took away the burden of ownership.”
I can’t even convince them to use my seedbox to torrent media—heck I’ve even offered that I’ll do all the work, they just have to access Jellyfin! But, no. They prefer to pay to get access to the media now instead of messaging me, waiting for me to get the media, and then watching it.
At the same time, they’ll complain that “everything is a subscription now!” I’m like bro…
If someone else owns your car, phone, house, and media, then you are owned.

A friend of mine spends upward of $1000/mo on food delivery.
Like what the hell?
Oh, and a network security friend once said “I don’t care about being watched by Facebook, etc, I want the convenience”. 🤦🏼
A friend who is very politically active (think gaza, queer rights and other leftist topics) refuses to use apps other than WhatsApp and Instagram because using any other apps is too much app switching. Meta is literally destroying democracies, but ya gotta have your comfy apps!
“Politically active” yet knows nothing about Cambridge Analytica 15 years ago. 🤦🏼
