    I’m nearly at 7 with my employer and I’ve found the situation to be quite good and I see no sign yet to jump ship. There’s still good gigs out there.

    I’m sure the person you are responding to had good reason to stick around 20 years. It’s possible only recently did the math not work out for them.




  • For me it was when his videos turned into advertisements blatant for paying the bills. He moved to CA, lost the passion for yt (which I don’t blame him, life happens) but then the videos he would make were soulless adverts in his vlog style.

    He seems to be “back” now doing videos with passion and vigor. I hope he’s having fun again


  • Surprised you don’t take this sort of detail up to your skip level. Corporations are not entirely blind to issues in all cases. Actually, I bet you have raised these concerns. For all the folks nodding along, talk to your boss’ boss!! You owe it to yourself to try


  • This will just push websites to change the orders and names of their query params (maybe regularly).

    I don’t think one can safely omit all query params from all sites and expect a decent experience across all websites.

    You are fighting a good fight, I salute you, but query params (the part of the url where the identifiers are included) are a valid and core part of Internet addresses. Trying to strip them away universally will only work for so long.

    I think that’s why you haven’t found a tool that meets all your needs yet, because many sites have legitimate uses for those params that don’t include tracking. You’ll probably need tools designed specifically for Amazon and other specific websites/services.


  • Not so sure that the bankrupted blockbuster is a great example of how a business should be run.

    Blockbuster failed for a few reasons chiefly that they didn’t adapt to the internet fast enough. However their rental model did not bring in the revenues.

    Whereas the competition, Netflix, did offer similar services (rented movies) for a flat subscription. Yes, Netflix also offered it via mail, however the Netflix model has (nearly) always been a flat subscription for its movies.

    Arguably, using evidence we’ve seen in real life, the subscription model is preferred by consumers and businesses alike. (Note: I don’t like them and have strived to cancel most of the subscriptions services I use)

    People in the real world like to rub their parts together and don’t concern themselves with these labels.

    Yes these labels are meaningful and can help you define who you are and what you want but don’t let them get in the way of finding someone who wants to consensually rub parts. It’s really just an Internet thing and niche sex culture.

    Why are you acting like these people here replying are your direct abusers? We don’t even know you and you are accusing us of trying to murder you.

    Do you not see how insane these words you are saying are?

    I’m sorry your life has been hard and seemingly full of abuse, but we are not those abusers.
