    It never is. It’s the same everywhere too.

    I once read on the Internet if you’re dependant on income you are poor. I think that is a perfect definition, because it removes the rivalry between all, well, slaves.

    By money count I am possibly rich in direct comparison to you. Yet here I am, requiring income for my family and me to survive alone, additionally being bound by long term costs.

    So it’s basically the same for all of us (albeit with different numbers and different conditions) except for a handful who can do what they want.

    If you’re interested in details in my case hit me up by pm.

    Yes, you need to run the service somewhere. But anyone can do so (Foss).

    With discord my experience is limited but I currently understand it’s a service model so you’re dependant on a company, which can pull the same sh*t teamspeak did at any time.

    Not needing any technical knowledge just means someone else is running it, possibly being able to lock you in. And in the case of discord, you already are locked in and have to accept whatever they think up.

    At some point, monetization will take over.

    It seems many don’t remember why there was a ts2 mass extinction. It was because of the horrendous ts3 licensing.

    Why the masses went to yet another closed system like discord I’ll never understand while being very satisfied with mumble/murmur.






  • I would say a lot of people in Germany are feeling left out/alone with their problems.

    It’s been like this for at least 10, if not 20 or more years.

    Most stuff is lobby and economy driven and we’re getting nowhere.

    In came the afd offering easy solutions and appealing to the public (never mind their program stating completely otherwise) so I guess it gave people the feeling of someone doing something and caring for them.

    And if not, pissing off the rest of the politicians.

    At least the latter is working.

    I do not support or condone this behaviour but it is not that hard to read.

    And instead of approaching the real current issues (inflation, money issues, buerocracy, environment) directly most parties even try to move further right, to get the afd voters back, which is the worst they could do.
