Ask Lemmy

Steam. Apparently I'm supposed to be angry they are a locked down monopoly but compared to practically EVERY OTHER GAMING COMPANY IN THE WORLD they are frickin' saints.

Reddit. They were irritating, so I left, but I couldn't care less if someone posts content here from teddit or(apparently gods forbid) mentions reddit.

I do not care about whatever happens with that company any more than I care about Apple or McDonald's or any other company with shitty products I don't engage with.

Trans people: I don't care which sportball team you play on or what bathroom you use, just wash your hands when you're done.

Whatever is in your pants is none of my business unless you're trying to make it my business (in which case, I'm flattered, but in a monogamous relationship, sorry).

Star Trek vs Star Wars. I like both.

It's more that the internet demands that I'm constantly outraged, but I want to spend the majority of my time being chill and happy. I can get my dander up for most things the internet wants me to be mad about, I just... don't.

Firefox purity testing. Oh no they ran an ad or made a post on a mainstream platform or developed a widget. Look at the state of the world this is such a non issue and compared to the other browsers out there they are fighting the good fight unequivocally.

Usually anything to do with celebrity drama. While it's not that common on Lemmy, the rest of the pop internet seems infatuated with what actor/musician threw shade or dissed some other, or which diva is being treated SO unfairly...

Cultural appropriation.

So... You're offended. People are living out of their cars now. I'm more worried about that.

Taylor Swift. Like, I get that billionaires are a problem, and her carbon footprint is huge. On the list of problematic billionaires, I feel like she really doesn't do that much problematic shit compared to the others.

Musk is a Nazi that gutted the US govt, Ellison has a laundry list of major issues, bezos is killing small businesses and bought a news company to whitewash himself, gates was involved with Epstein and did some shady shit to grow Microsoft, the waltons single handedly massacred thousands (millions?) of small businesses with anticompetitive practices.

I really don't think that Swift rises remotely close to the same level of degeneracy and existential threat that these guys do, yet the only other billionaire I see getting criticised as much as her is Musk.

Sony discontinuing physical media.

I haven't bought a physical game for any platform in I don't even know how many years and I doubt I ever will again.

The moral failings of celebrities and creators who've been dead for decades.

Save your outrage for things that are happening now, that you still have a chance to change.

I love Tolkien. I don't like what Amazon did with Rings of Power, but I just didn't watch it, simple as that. That's how the free market works. People make a sucky product. You don't buy the sucky product, they stop making the sucky product. And if they don't stop making the sucky product, you make your own hopefully less sucky product. I don't have the energy to complain about it online.

Pineapple on pizza. I don't even like it that much but holy shit, shut the fuck up about it. You must have zero personality if you think it bring it up

Stop killing games. I'm not saying it's a bad or wrong stance, just that there are so many other way more important things taking up all my fucks that I'm all out of fucks for that one.

It's rare for me to be outraged by anything. I'm capable of not liking things while not being emotionally captured by them.

Almost any single thing about movies or shows. I don't consume either and literally could not care less about any of it. Double whammy with superhero stuff.

What a CEO or founder of a company does off the clock. Brave, Mozilla, Mullvad, Proton, GrapheneOS - I just don't care. If I picked a product off of the CEO not being a dick, I wouldnt have any products or services to use.

Pizza tastes great. Pineapples taste great. The math solves itself.

"Shitlibs"

Weird fuckin' american paradigm. I've simultaneously been called a shitlib, a tankie, a communist and a capitalist. Piss.

The trend is dying out but, I never understood the labubu hate. It seems like the people who hate them dont even hate the worst aspect of labubus; blind box gambling. I just couldnt seem to find the rational of visceral reaction to a doll.

Sony not making physical discs.

You people think Sony anything was worth buying in the first place?

Most things. The internet is a rage factory these past few years. I got enough real things to be upset about.
