Really hilarious to use that quote the moment you chose to speak and not see any irony in it. Also I’m a fool for having an opinion? The irony is building.

Ok? And how does that change anything I said? I said it’s a generic name that tells you nothing about the service

Also, saying a platform that describes itself as - “The volunteer-built media solution that puts you in control of your media.” - is not a streaming service, seems like really splitting hairs bud. It’s a free movie website with extra bells and whistles.

My bad for coming on lemmy and not having every one of the 75,000 recommend privacy apps for people to cosplay Edward Snowden while they watch movies. Touch grass.

Two words slapped together that sound vaguely relevant, or some version of "blank"tube. Jellyfin doesn’t even seem vaguely relevant to streaming so it’s probably a worse offender than the others. Like I said, the kind of name a random name generator could turn out and may well have lol.

Might be a great streaming service, I’ve never used it, and I’m not trying to discourage others from doing so. But I guarantee a month from now I’ll have completely forgotten its name.

I don’t have one, it’s just another generic name for a small streaming platform that all blend together. Crunchyroll, Jellyfin, SmartTube, hell there’s even Mubi and Tubi. It’s just the trend of web based companies, whether it’s streaming services or vpns or what have you, it’s like they got it from a 2015 “name my company” website.

Just an observation. But apparently, not unlike yourself, the terminally online took that as a personal attack on their favorite streaming service.

Jellyfin

SmartTube

We’re really running out of names for streaming services aren’t we?

Where I’m from people use it frequently, but never about disabled people. They just mean stupid. In that capacity I agree, it’s literally the same on every level as idiot, moron, imbecile, feeble-minded, dumb, etc.

If someone uses the word to refer to a mentally handicapped or disabled person, we’re gonna fight. If you call attacking Iran retarded, I agree wholeheartedly.

Sorry but the ampersand is really bothering me

That would suggest I don’t spend much time online, the opposite of the insult I used.

That second paragraph makes you sound like a terminally online douche

Misanthropy is for losers

Ya fr I’ve been going to the movies at least 5-6 times a year for 30 years and I can only recall one time that someone was disruptive enough to say something, and an usher dealt with it before I did. I know it does happen, but it’s not nearly as ubiquitous as memes will make it seem.

Also half of Americans live in “food deserts” with limited or no options for fresh, healthy food/groceries. Often their only sources of sustenance are the dollar store and fast food.

I work with a lot of blue collar guys who voted for Trump in 2024. The most common trend I’ve noticed in the last month or so is that they “don’t want to talk politics” the disillusionment is spreading.

You keep telling yourself that.

Jill Stein is a Russian asset or at the very least a shill, and you’re the idiot that fell for it and voted for her.

“Cornel West, he’s one of my favorite candidates. Cornel West and I like her also, Jill Stein, I like her very much. You know why? She takes 100% from them.” - DJT

Stein recorded a video from Red Square, in which she talked about “the need to rein in American exceptionalism” and replace “a U.S. policy based on domination.” Which, she’s not wrong, but she wasn’t saying it for the right reasons (hint hint red square).

And then there’s her position on Ukraine which is straight from the mouth of Putin and Lavrov.

“Russia’s invasion was a provoked response to the bigger, more murderous and illegal game plan of US empire… In 2014 the US backed a coup in Ukraine led by far-right insurrectionists. The installation of the new government was a giant step towards the goal of adding Ukraine to NATO - and putting hostile bases and nuclear-capable missiles right on Russia’s border.” – Jill Stein (Feb. 24, 2022)

Then theres, you know, her having dinner with Putin. In Moscow. For… Reasons?

But ya, blame everyone else instead of taking some personal responsibility for being a fucking moron.
