Unfortunately, the time has come for me to leave Lemmy. Time will show where we all end up. I'll see you in the future... maybe sooner than you think?

Edit: Follow up post is here. Don't worry. You're not getting rid of me that easy. I'm just switching to piefed.world

Is this merely switching from Lemmy to something else, or are you leaving the fediverse completely?

If it’s the latter, then I wish you the very best of luck. I don’t know you very well, but I remember you having had some personal issues in the past. Hopefully those aren’t coming back and you’ve just decided to simply move on. Regardless, your memes and shitposting will be missed.

Good luck to you! Or, as a wise man once wrote, “So long, and thanks for all the fish!”

Oh, any specific reason you're switching software?

[–] BombOmOm@lemmy.world 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

But will it continue to be your last post in the future? Or is it simply your last post at this moment?

LMAO

I'm unfortunately stuck here until Boost implements PieFed support

They only offer Premium LITE now, which feels extremely ironic after rejecting it all these years. It's like: "So, you declined my offer for years but have you considered... a WORSE OFFER, human?"

[–] whaleross@lemmy.world 9 points 3 months ago

YouTube keeps showing me offers to give me two months premium for free, but when I click it they offer only one.

I'm pretty sure this is illegal in the EU but I can't be bothered so I stick with the ad blocker and reset the cookies every once in a while.

I'm sorry to see you go. If you change your mind, we'll be here to welcome you back with open arms. Be safe.

Are you getting harassed again or taking a break, cuz life?

I'd be more than willing to throw them a couple of euros each month. But paying like 14 per month for something I get for free now is just too much.

[–] BackgrndNoize@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They've been making money off my private data for years, I ain't paying for shit now

That's been my feeling all along. $5-10 per month I can justify, but I really can't justify $23/mo to cover both my and my wife's accounts, especially given that they reportedly still sometimes show ads to premium subscribers. And honestly when they were getting really pushy about subscribing a year or two ago I refused because I don't give in to pushiness like that by tech companies

[–] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I’ve been on YouTube Premium since it was YouTube Red, and I’ve never seen an ad when I’m logged in.

I justify it because YouTube Music is included, so I can get music streaming without paying for a similar service from Spotify or Apple or Amazon or whomever, and also get ad-free YouTube on all my devices and whatnot.

I continue to download all videos and watch them locally to skip out on ads. Some channels bake them right in the video, but a few quick mouse clicks jump me over that garbage. When downloads stop working, I will find something else to pass the time.

I humbly reserve the right to give you a hug, if you'd consent, for all you did for us. Also I would like your permission to kick you in the balls for this "announcement". If your biology doesn't allow for that, don't worry, I've got a magic spell that can give you balls just long enough for me to kick them.

Just kidding, love you <3

Cast seal buttcrack.

I thought federated meant people see your posts no matter where you log in. But if going to piefed means you're "leaving" lemmy, kthxbye I guess. I don't see the need for an announcement.

Any chance they'll become fully interoperable? I mean, besides the standard fediverse account stuff. Ideally, being able to scroll my All feed on piefed and seeing Lemmy posts in there. I just don't want to go back to a ghost town like the Lemmy of 2 years ago.

Also, thanks for all the posts! You and Picard were the backbone of this place in the bad old days.

EDIT: I just noticed a piefed post in my feed. The future is now!

EDIT EDIT: It was a piefed user, I'm dumb.

[–] Stamets@lemmy.world 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

They fully work together. You can see piefed posts on lemmy and vice versa! From my understanding anyway. Just go to lemmy.world/c/support@piefed.world or something and you should be able to see posts with no issue.
