    Who are you people glazing this functionality? The term doom scrolling came about, in large part, because of infinite scrolling. I have never, in nearly two decades of smart phones…

    This is a false equivalence. I don't use a product _because_ it's got an endless scroll. I use a product and then they add that "feature" without giving me an option. I would, and …

    Glad I'm not the only one who thought this story sounded completely fabricated. It reads like a Flock ad.

    This should go without saying, but the person you're replying to obviously wants you to prove instances of scientists receiving grant money because they know someone or are part of…

    Turn off your watch history. It stops all shorts except from your subscriptions. If they remove this, I will surely be done with YouTube. I was so desperate to disable shorts and r…

    I'm curious why it seems so many on this site still have Facebook accounts. I'd deleted mine before and it didn't stick, but I deleted it again earlier this year and haven't one si…

    The person you responded to didn't say anything about harm to themselves. They said there's nothing stopping them from donating even though they're aware of the PFAS contamination …

    I'm curious if there's been any evidence Novamin actually repairs enamel or "repairs" in some other way. IIRC, it's not allowed in the states because it's not economical to prove t…

    Shhh! Don't let Google know about this trick. I've gotten stuck in approximately 0 doom scroll loops since disabling view history and I'd like to keep it that way.

    B&W mode is great until you're trying look at photos or watch videos. I wish there was a setting in the operating system to remove color from UI elements and not videos or images. …

    YouTube is like 10% of Alphabets profits and there are thousands of creators relying on it for a living. Anecdotal but the creators I follow all talk about YouTube giving them a mu…

    I rather disagree and think this discourse is both beneficial and necessary. This comment really feels dubious and is the exact definition of the Noble Lie.

    "hipsters", "Apple fanboys" and "normie" - I'm convinced this was trained on Reddit posts from 2015

    I suspect it might be complicated by the fact that most of their content isn't owned by them but leased(?) from record labels, artists, podcasters, etc? But I agree it seems like t…

    Their complete lack of interesting custom games is what killed it for me. Halo, for me, was about forge and messing around in fun game modes people came up with. Releasing Halo wit…

    This is a privileged opinion, no? Not everyone has the resources or means to leave the place they live.

    Coming from a smaller town ( Most people in America are born and live in metro areas and I wonder if the same kind of mentality is taught to those people?

    MKBHD recently shared the same sentiment in a video. He feels, anecdotally, that 5G is worse than LTE. I feel the same way and recently switched my preferred network to LTE. You mi…
