Also, take it from a squid- clams don’t meditate. They’re big gooey messes of anxiety in a shell.
People are like piranahs on Lemmy when it comes to anything ad-adjacent lol. It’s good to be vigilant, but damn, not EVERYTHING is something, lol. Honestly, getting all riled up over an ad someone saw in a subway and was amused by is pretty shellfish of them…
and who’s to say this is actual data, and not just some intern spitting out some idea
Sirs can I please have your attention!
These days we’re outraged almost exclusively by AI. Please proceed to re write your comments, assuming the image was made entirely by a computer and OP is a bot.
Riled up? Are you sure?
Well you couldn’t tell now lol, but when I commented, about 25% of the comments were accusing OP of being a corporate shill or similar “you’re just giving Spotify free advertisement” stuff.
There's nothing in Spotify's ToS that says you can't be a clam and use their service
The classic Air Bud legal defense
“immortalized” is a strong word for an ad that stays up for maximum a month long
Well it will live on for immortality online.
I would not care and I tell you why, I did not understood why the same thing was written twice I had to read the title again in order to pay mor attention and realize what the problem was !!!
You might be dyslexic!
Also that playlist might be yours.
I thought the typo was going to be ‘calm mediation’ at first and just thought it would be lawyer ASMR.
Those 2019 people were just another year away from finding out what an actually crazy year looks like.
2020 enters the chart
Hold my beer
They’re big gooey messes of anxiety in a shell.
OP is saltier than the clams.
Dude, have you ever talked to a clam?
Yes, i am a cunning linguist.
Spotify is making money off that typo.
The world needs more clam meditation.
What if it’s not typo, but actual playlist for meditating clam?
8 million is dramatically underselling how many people live in the metro area - that’s only the city limits.
Are you implying that Spotify used user data to generate these advertisements, rather than just paying the marketing firm that definitely came up with this idea?
Also, way to add an extra layer to the promotion.
Do you think Spotify is paying me or something? For fuck’s sake. I thought it was funny. If you don’t like it, move on.
Obviously a corporate shill. He never outright said he wasn’t being payed.
It’s just a shitpost. Please, let’s all try to remain clam.
I’d rather not have ads in the shit post community
Looks like an anti-Spotify ad to me. Why should Spotify employees read the names of people’s playlists?
Edit: oh, they’re probably public ones. Still, technically profiting off people’s content, which they likely agreed to in ToS.
That seems like something that could be easily taken just from the api, I feel like if it’s data anyone can get for free, they are fine to use it in ads.
Imagine posting free advertisements for $$$$$p000pify on lemmy
Oh yeah, that’s totally what I’m doing by literally pointing out that they’re watching their users in my headline.
I know “they’re spying on you” always entices me to subscribe to a service.
Here’s what I got when I mentioned a popular 24hr American diner chain a month back:
Pretty great. It made me rethink the post actually. Probably 1% of my comments/posts are indistinguishable from advertisements… sometimes I’ll end up self censoring.
For example, did you notice I didn’t mention the diner was Denny’s, who for a limited time is INTRODUCING: THE BERRY WAFFLE SLAM® (Breakfast in a Liège of its own)?
Ah yes poop, haha you got em
Agreed, I hate this
Careful, my comment was removed for jokingly saying OP was a shill for not outright saying Spotify wasn’t paying him.
Sorry, it didn’t look like a joke to me, it looked like a personal attack.
Very polite (especially to Squid) skepticism should be okay. Accounts can get hacked, accounts can get sold, marketers are damn good.
You might appreciate my last comment btw
Now we are talking about their ad.
Clam down there brother
In the immortal words of NOFX clams have feelings too.
isn’t that a picture of a scallop?
Hey pal 👋, listen friendo, when I read your comment, I immediately started touching myself. Hope I can touch you next. Over and out.
Long as its not linked to an individual, no big thing
Petah ?

I don’t know, clam meditation sounds pretty chill
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
You would think so, but they’ve got no chill. They spend all day on Clambook getting worked up about things and clamscrolling.
tigeruppercut@lemmy.zip 2 weeks ago
Sounds like squid propaganda!

Oh yeah turn up the heat and humidity and drink some hot milk, in a robe preferred for ultimate zen

Clams seem pretty happy, at least enough that there's a whole expression about it
