Exactly all of this.

Agreed. In essence, the cost of doing business is ensuring your supply chain is lawful and morally sound. This lack of respect for humanity as a practice runs rampant because capitalism calls for nothing less than infinite growth and ever increasing profit.

I drove one of these recently as a rental, and told my partner that they were tracking our every move to send to our insurance company. Didn’t believe me, so thank you for this article!

The UI is certainly attractive on Jerboa, and I imagine will improve with time. I’m using mainly on an android phone. I second another comment on enjoying the “real conversations” bit, as this feels much more human, and not a platform abused by bots, marketing, and astroturfing (and also greedy, grifting CEOs). I do have an issue with Jerboa not maintaining my sign in status every time, and the feed not loading every time I open the app, but it’s small potatoes. I’m looking forward to the evolution of Lemmy!

I chose this platform after I realized I accidentally signed up for an Italian one instead, lol! Glad to bee here!
