I’m confused a bit by this honestly. Power strips are easy to hide where they are not visible. In their case, an LED is actually preferable to know the state of the power strip and I have several power strips that don’t have any LEDs. I also don’t think I’ve ever seen a power strip with a blue LED. None of my charging adapters have LEDs and it’s extremely rare for me to find one that does. The default iPhone/Android chargers don’t have LED and you can adapt them to work with like 90% of electronics these days because everything just uses USB. If you don’t want an digital clock, then don’t buy a digital clock? I also searched for a floor fan and 95% of the results appear to have no LEDs.

If LEDs are such a problem, I’d recommend not buying things with LEDs in them? It seems like it’s actually difficult to run into the problem you’re experiencing.

No, they’re being paid by a European group to develop Lemmy.

Lemmy devs are being paid to develop Lemmy, they literally admit to it.

I’m called out, although I’m not quite in my 30s yet.

Also… Reddit started out in the same way, mostly as a forum for programmers and nerds
