It uses the zip archive feature that they allow you to request and export so at least it doesn’t use a direct connection or API. I think there is also some EU rule or something about requiring it because Dansup was asking about filing a complaint because of the export format being convoluted or something, not sure of the details but hopefully that means there’s some legal weight to the export feature sticking around.
This is about as offensive as calling someone straight.
I also used to cancel often, I would accept 30 day trials and then immediately schedule cancellation for the end (it’s really nice that they actually let you do that instead of making you wait until just before the end). They just kept offering 30 day trials so I kept doing that. Nowadays I use ebay as much as possible first, and accept 30 day trials if offered when I have to resort to Amazon. To help make up for it I always make sure to use the included twitch prime sub on a streamer I like, also surprising that prime trials include a twitch prime sub.
I think you can follow a channel and see videos as posts. Then replying to the post shows up as a federated comment. I haven’t tried it though.
He often does segments on his show aimed at publicly shaming companies or groups of people, has a very good record of spurring on some kind of change, at a minimum raises a lot of awareness, and provides updates in later episodes on changes that happened due to him putting people on blast. He also feuds with and mocks the parent company that owns his show so this seems like something he would be interested in supporting with a good comedy segment making fun of spez. Sadly not sure if it’ll work out due to the writer’s strike but if we were to try to get the support of a public figure, he’s a pretty good option.
What the hell lmao, literally 2 posts down on my feed is the Verge article from today which states:
While the company does “respect the community’s right to protest” and pledges that it won’t force communities to reopen, Reddit also suggests there’s no need for that; more than 80 percent of the top 5,000 communities by daily active users are now open

The more anti-consumer shit they pull, the more of my friends I get to join my Plex server, for marginal cost since more users barely means any more used electricity.
