As a former RIF user, I agree, but it’s been less stable than other apps lately, so I’ve started to use some other apps (mostly conneci) more

I’ve tended not to directly pay for services, but password share with family where we each pay for a service. So I’ve had Netflix, Hulu, Peacock, and Amazon but only was paying for Netflix (obviously Netflix killed this). I also pay for Spotify, and have the unlimited regal pass (I live a few minutes from our local theater and go pretty often)

So given this, I feel zero remorse for pirating and data hoarding as much media as the internet can give me, as I feel like I’m already paying quite a bit for media.

I don’t know that this will get as huge as reddit was, but the number of comments I’ve seen here has doubled/tripled in the past few weeks, to the point where if Lemmy doesn’t ever grow much more than this, I think this is a sustainable mass of people right now to keep a good network effect going
