Capitalism destroys the best.

Some of Twitter's best content creators have given up on it. That combined with blue tick prioritisation and lack of moderation has seen it turn into a cesspit. I don't see why that doesn't happen on Reddit. Sure the people who go to discuss player trades in international sport and doom scroll dank memes will stick around, but a lot of the quality content could evaporate.

Care to give an example of something of yours that was censored? I've been on Reddit for almost a decade and only seen nasty ad hominin attacks and hateful speech censored. Seen plenty of right wing misinformation be downvoted into oblivion, but never censored.

That’s without use. Talk time is a little over 3Hrs. I was interested until I read that.

yep, was just abstract earlier

Interesting premise. Pity I can't read the article.

"I don’t think my app is deceiving Google Play Store". I feel like there's more to this story.

I use it for three different storefronts. Maybe I'm an exception, but I've never had an issue with it.

Why is Telegram getting so much better traction over open source alternatives such as Wire?

The designer suggests it was done for aesthetic reasons. More importantly it held my interest a lot longer than a typical map might have, and thus I now know more about Ancient Roman roads!

From Wikipedia: "A straw man is a common form of argument and is an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not advanced by that opponent."

I'm probably what you would describe as 'pro-death'. But I would never have made any of the arguments you listed.

I could just as easily frame your positions to suit my argument.

For example; 'More people make more progress faster.' (India has not made as large a contribution to modern technology as the USA)

This is a bit of a straw man technique. You've framed the argument to suit your counterpoint.

6kg for an ebike frame is not lightweight at all. Downhill mountain bike frame with traditional aluminium tubing weigh less and have to handle much greater forces.

It's presented as a really black and white argument. Marketing and a focus sales are not mutually exclusive at all.

The author cites examples from Stripe and Pinterest, which are actually just anecdotes around usability testing, not recruitment of users.

I would argue focusing on sales puts you at risk of narrowing your scope and broader appeal.
