3 months old account, could you possibly be…
a reddit transplant?
No matter how far we move the goal posts, I’m still going to base what I enjoy on what I enjoy, and not on what corporations are doing or not doing. I find it a bit sad that people would let what entity controls something to dictate their enjoyment of it.

Your account is 2 months older than mine. What’s your point?

Well I (along with a majority of users on Lemmy) left reddit because the shitty decisions being made on top.
I just think it’s a funny coincidence from someone implying that companies not caring about their clientele isn’t an issue.

Who implied it wasn’t a problem? Certainly not I.

I enjoyed Reddit, but then they started doing things I didn’t agree with, so I left.
I used to want a Tesla, but I’d rather not support someone like Elon Musk, so I won’t get one.
I used to love songs by a certain band, and then the lead singer turned out to be a pedophile, so I stopped listening to the music because it was no longer enjoyable.
Sometimes you’ve got to vote with your wallet, or your attention, or whatever affects the relevant party. Companies definitely affect you, and I don’t think it’s wrong to make decisions based on things other than just enjoyment.

I ultimately agree here that you should vote with your wallet. I never said nor suggested that one should make decisions solely on what they enjoy.
The top level comment was about how people are “taking sides” and that is ridiculous because the companies don’t care for people. My original point was that someone might have a personal interest in the matter or an informed legal opinion, and might take a side based on these things.
