When you sign a contract with a client that asks you to do something, you either do it in the ways described by the contract, or you don’t and don’t get paid. You have no say in how you should work.

Find the rules unfair? Don’t apply to CCS then.

You don’t have to say anything more. You’re in the wrong. You lied, you didn’t fulfilf your promises. That’s it.

I feel like I prefer the voice I hear in my head than the voice I hear when I record myself :(

The voices in my head 👀

🤗 hugs!

I read “left” as his other daughter being dead 👀

That’s just one of the dumbest reasons to sue Apple…

I was specifically talking about China never being badly pictured

I’m not specifically saying you’re making a post and collectively jumping on a train to shit on us. It could also be that some users just search for political posts close to their beliefs or posts about their instance and only interact with those

It still feels Iike the only time you pop on threads, it goes wrong, and you are always seen in the same type of threads

Ah yes, when you don’t have any arguments, use sarcasm and irony to make your opponent look like a fool. Classic.

Sure, but there’s a difference between agreeing with the general idea and defending everything a country does. Nuance is important.

If what we consider an authoritarian country isn’t considered authoritarian by communists, then there you have an additional problem

For sure, the core of hexbear and lemmygrad isn’t brigading, but it happened enough so that people are fed up of it

I guess you didn’t read what I wrote

You can read my comment history. I’m sure you can check that I’m not only talking about politics and not always defending one side

It might be. But it’s also because you guys are very vocal and support extremism/authoritarian governments

https://jlai.lu/comment/13530572 (For your first question)

Some isolated users are very vocal when there’s a discussion about their instances. Happened in a discussion about defederation of hexbear in my instance. Wasn’t there but it lead to both instances being defederated from us

I’m not going to start the whole thread again. Here is the reason we say this: https://jlai.lu/comment/13508125

(Sry I only have a link to my instance)

When you go out of your instance, it’s to argue about political opinions

Not as simple as that

Their users are often overly entitled by this, spread hate, engage in brigading and censor people when they don’t agree with them.

It is mandatory to mention that while I said the above, there is probably a good portion of them who aren’t like that. They’re just the silent majority.

I did not meant fully degoogled androids! Sorry for the confusion. But most people running custom ROMs add Google play support/emulation because most apps use it.

As for microG, since I’m coming from GrapheneOS, I don’t know much about it. Might be a better solution

Cool 😎

iOS has a nice default set of privacy respecting apps. iOS isn’t perfect but it’s as close as you can get to having a usable phone while having some sort of privacy.

Android always sends requests to Google. A de-googled phone with no Play Services is too limiting.

The illusion of choice

A lot of “normal” dating apps are also owned by the same companies
