@lemmy.worldDo I sense some inner tensions due to frustration with using Microsoft's sorry excuse for an OS?
Well - I thought I'd mention that it could look like that - but of course it really depends on the personality / financial situation of your friends whether that might have influenced them
Is that a tip jar on the table? Even if not, just the association is enough for people to feel like they have to contribute financially for the food. While that isn't an outrageous thought, for people who are tight on their finances, it might be an uncomfortable situation where they'd rather skip on the food than take it and not pay a share.
Gold medal of tautology. At this point, people still using windows voluntarily don't deserve any better. And IT departments having a choice but forcing windows on users deserve to be burned at the stake.
which is basically what we do using ublock origin - and then they inject ads directly into the video stream, and a custom UI wouldn't help.
While I don't disagree with Stallman, how would that solve this problem? This is about a major video hosting platform having market shares and injecting ads into their streams / UI. I do not see - even if every line of youtube's software sources were public - how that would solve the issue that the hosting platform can insert ads anywhere - honestly, as much as I hate ads, I can't even blame youtube for doing something morally questionable - they are providing a service, they are not a public institution obligated to making information accessible.
