  • My 2 cents is that the reason no one switches is nothing is innovative anymore but we are fairly addicted so its not like we’re going to demand innovation. If there’s was some cool new “swipe right” or “get notified when friends are online” type thing then people would check it out. But all the cool stuff has been innovated already and now switching to a new thing isn’t enticing because its the same stuff we all have just moved around differently. Nobody cares about the backend stuff







  • Websites and services create APIs for programmers to use them. So Spotify has code that let’s you build a program that can use its features. But you need a token they give you after you sign up. The token can be revoked and used to monitor how much of their service you’re using. That way they can restrict if its too much.

    Scraping is raw dogging the web slut you met at the cougar ranch who went home with you because you reminded her of her dog










  • I don’t understand how people do not get blood red angry at advertising more often. Its the root of a lot of our problems with censorship and they flat out just exploit what little free time we all get.

    By the time I get home I got 3 hours to chill. Then these ads take up 1/3 of that selling me shit I never asked for. They indirectly forced every platform I ever enjoyed to become these homogenous boring vanilla time sinks. That’s because they pay one content safe creator and then the rest start to copy them. Now if I want to avoid ads, I have to pay extra fees which fuck it, the content creators circumvent by putting ads directly into the media.

    We should all be more hostile to any encroachment of ads into our lives. Its weird that instead I see people embracing it like it isn’t a cancer. We’ve lost the freedoms we had on thr internet to these ads and nobody seems to care.
