Learned the term recently and really enjoy it, subscription fatigue is the feeling we all have had now where we are just over how everything is subscription based.

Which one was the last straw or most annoying/frustrating to you?

I admit, last time I tried something different years ago, it wasn't that good, but thought I'd give it another go. I'd bought a lifetime pass way back, so had nothing to lose by trying.

The kids are coping fine - the apps for something different are all pretty rock-solid now - macOS, iOS, Android, Chromecast GTV. Plus I'm on a decent fibre internet connection, so even full high quality things work just fine when they're not at home. Honestly, there's not a lot of difference, except my catalogue of things is better than any single service.

Plus I take requests. :D Actually, I allow automated processing of requests, within certain limits.

How do you process the automated requests? That’s my dream for my little slice of things.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

There's an *arr app that oversees requests.

Arrr! I be hearin' tales of the five hearties of the Dutchman, sonarr, radarr, lidarr, prowlarr, and the most feared scallywag of 'em all: overseer!

Lemmy is banning sea faring communities.

Edit: lemmy.world to be specific

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

lemmy.world is, not others

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

You mean lemmy.world? Nowhere else bans it to my knowledge. Pretty sure Lemmy itself doesn't and can't ban anything.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

Lol - why do you care? If you know, you know. Right?
