I’m guessing these are at least partly fake, the one in the middle is Belle Delphine’s fake mugshot when she faked getting arrested as a publicity stunt.

Unhinged take

Oh yeah no shade at all, it’s cheap and efficient

By servers I assume we mean the pile of Mac Minis.

The little theme tune he hums as he sprints towards the coffin is great.

“Willys, willys, I like willys!”

“It’s I LOVE willys”

It’s owned by Canva, so I’d be willing to bet their next release will we some kind of web version - in that case there would be no need to port it.

This translates to fewer Patreon subscribers which means less opportunity and funding to create high quality videos

If there’s an algorithm to game, and money to be made, I don’t see how that’s any different to self promotion. Boil it down and all that’s happening is you are performing an action, so that more people see you, in the hopes that some of them will give you money.

The lack of an algorithm is a feature, I don’t want content I havent explicitly asked for to be shown.

I doubt there’s any such thing as backups, nothing on there is permanent that’s why so many archive sites exist.

Sorry but, 4chan account? There’s no such thing as that.

Not denying that Muskrat did this, but there’s no such thing as an account on that site.

Yep and even better than that; most if not all residential ISPs use Carrier-grade NAT so one IP (which changes), now represents hundreds if not tens of thousands of their customers.

At the very best, you could maybe narrow an IP to a very vague geographical area like several suburbs, or a specific town maybe.

Call me a child, but peas are gross. The rest looks fantastic though.

Self promotion is a form of advertising, doubly so if it’s done for the purpose of attracting revenue via some means. People can opt into it if they want via subscribing/following but it’s still advertising.

So yes most “authentic” content is just people advertising themselves. I would prefer not to see that unless I have opted into it.

That’s still an ad, you want money for a product you’re offering. The only difference is in your case there’s an extra step between impression and conversion.

I’d prefer for my social media to not be full of ads for “content”.

“How would you have felt yesterday if you hadn’t eaten breakfast or lunch?”

It should be text only, purely factual, and very limited.

“We are blah, selling blah for $x, at $location”

My grandpa used to tell ugly people (and me) that “You’ve got a head like a half sucked mango” - he was right on the money I think.

You feel wrong, unfortunately.

Australian here; I much prefer living away from cities. I like having a big house on a big block with lots of nature and as few other people around me as possible.

The catch is while the housing and land is wayyyy cheaper, other stuff is more expensive and inconvenient. The biggest thing people don’t consider is trades people; you’ll have plumbers, sparkies etc just refuse to even come out when they find out you’re more than half an hour away from civilisation, and if they do come out they charge for the travel.
