Could you elaborate?

Awesome! Love it!
Yeah FOSS fundemental communists, we’re the worst echo chamber.

Just to back you up:

“The most common argument used in defense of mass surveillance is ‘If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear’. Try saying that to women in the US states where abortion has suddenly become illegal. Say it to investigative journalists in authoritarian countries. Saying ‘I have nothing to hide’ means you stop caring about anyone fighting for their freedom. And one day, you might be one of them.”
Yeah a social media platform full of debuggers is gonna complain about that 😅
Well what you’re calling left wing psudoscience is an article by Economic Policy Institute: https://www.epi.org/publication/charting-wage-stagnation/
They explain their methodology and data sources in meticilous detail, even more so in their report on how they do; https://www.epi.org/publication/understanding-the-historic-divergence-between-productivity-and-a-typical-workers-pay-why-it-matters-and-why-its-real/
If that’s not enough here’s some more stuff:
I agree, yes, the gold standard sucks. My intention was not really to perpetuate that in any way.
Everything you said is just chefs kiss.
“(wage suppression + higher profits for capitalism)” = they stole prosperity from us.
Woah, woah, woah. Here I am just spitting poorly thought out ramblings and you come back with coherent argument! :D
So yes, I totally agree. There is no good old days! Workers were treated like shit. Working in modern day WFH, to put it simply, I’m pampered.
I cite this graph more in context of nobody below a certain age being reasonably able to afford a house (or anything really), unless their parents make the down payment.
“oppression under capital has existed for centuries, not decades.”, yes the parallels between today and serfdom are evident, apart from the rather much better living standard (for most of us).
Gold standard sucks, I am just advocating for a new and different system, certainly not an old and worse one!
So I wholeheartedly agree with you.
Yes this is part of it.
What happened is Nixon fucked up fiat and fucked us all:
Nothing.
What was the effect of the reddit migration on reddit; nothing.
Yeah, when someone says private I assume I can self host.
This is great! Is it open source? The only thing I found missing was an about page.
Honestly I thoughr about doing it after suggesting that it might have been a VM. Maybe it was someone like me.
Isn’t this just a screengrab from a win98 VM?
Yes, I’m all in on that!
Ever since joining Lemmy I’ve noticed this awesome trend towards a modernized retro internet. Self/web hosted blogs, sites and apps. Not all that commercial giant bullshit but an oldschool mesh of servers. Activitypub and stuff will be awesome in creating a new subset that is more in line with the original designs for the internet.
