Your reasons are why i generally still use Reddit (i didnt feel butthurt losing access to most 3rd party apps as im mainly desktop user - however i do frequent Tildes more than Lemmy) - most of the communities i use never left reddit (dont see intention to either) and there isnt comparable equivalents on Lemmy (not on Tildes either but i prefer the more indepth discussions there)

Couple of things. What are White Noise Podcasts?. Spotify only started to offer Podcasts (got annoyed them pushing them in the recent UIs) a while back didnt they?. Imagine many people who use podcasts for any length of time actually use another service or app (in my case Podcast addict and now Antennapod). I used to use Spotify premium for music only. Thanks for all the recommendations further down for alternatives but how many offer mainstream music/download purchase etc?

That's the issue i find with recommending Bandcamp unless people are looking for small bands or indie artists (its also great for game soundtrack albums etc).

Is 70% correct?. I thought Thailand and Vietnam were just as big of producers? (we get more rice from thailand/vietnam/cambodia/+ grow our own locally here in australia). I never buy basmati.....

Well, if they are forced to bring back removable batteries which may be seem the case in a few years (unless they befuddle the EU authorities), they might have to bring back X if they remove it as well...
