I even paste -inurl:[reddit.com] to the end of my google searches so I don't even accidentally click on a link from Reddit in my searches. lol

Probably right wing populists are the majority there now. Intelligent people abandoned the dumpster fire. Just like Twitter. It's just a far-right cesspool of hate now.

Well I think I pay something like $95 for YouTube TV +Max. Netflix is like 12? I'm on a sweet Spotify+Hulu for 9.99 promo for years, but I think it's going up to $10.99. Disney is like $9. It may seem like a lot, but that's all I spend on entertainment. I don't eat outside the home regularly. I don't go see movies at theaters. I don't buy things like DVDs and stuff.

And to be fair, it's for the household. We're poly so there's a variety of interests. And if you divide that by 5 adults, it's cheap.

I cancelled cable a few years ago and now use YouTube TV. I love it because I can record everything, never run out of DVR space. I can run 5 tvs with different shows on each. I can watch TV anywhere on my phone and laptop. I can stop on one device and pick back up on another. Well over 100 channels now (but I only really watch a handful). Every channel also has an on-demand section. Like TCM has what's live but also a huge library to stream from.

I have Hulu, Netflix, Amazon, Disney, Peacock, Max...but if I had to just use one service, it would be YouTube TV. It follows me, and is not tied to my house. If I go visit another state, it will even switch to the local news wherever I am. It has, by far, the most content in one spot for one price.

Not everyone watches US politics, or Fox News. I live in the US and don't know her. I am sure there are famous faces you don't know because it's not your field of interest. Can you identify famous contemporary painters by face? Physicists? Composers? Game designers? Belittling someone's education because they don't know something you do is pathetic and says a lot more about you than it does the person you were mocking.

Modern billionaires are the manifestation of the rampant consumerism of the masses. Want to do your part against the billionaires? Start with consuming less. Buy less. Move toward minimal.

Since his handle is being taken against his will, he should get to take someone else's handle against their will. Then let it be a chain reaction.

Maybe someone who hasn't see Airplane.

To be fair, no user "owns" their account. Everything about your Twitter account, from the user name to the data you tweet belongs to Twitter. I hesitate to call it a dick move. It's more of an Elon move.

I don't think we should worry about an app we will never use. :)

That's really difficult to do with a karma-like system. People posting in echo-chambers can post misinformation but receive many up votes.

Credibility is subjective. For example, people on one side of a political ideology will not think people on the opposite side are credible. So who can really determine an "attribute of credibility"?

We would have to agree on a standard first and that's just not going to happen.
