My understanding is that nobody actually cares about the data collection, its more of a rebellious move to punish the government for, in their opinion, overreaching.
For the record, I don’t agree with that - its just what I’m seeing.

While I am deeply disappointed by the message, their actions in the industry have still been generally positive over the years and their services remain one of the only reasonable alternatives to google, apple, and microsoft’s cloud services. Outside of the VPN, Their UX still needs work before I can say its ready for the average person - but It’s still good enough for most people here who have some base level of technological literacy.
Though I am now looking for and hoping for an alternative to crop up somewhere.
They told everyone and nobody cared, turns out people care if a YouTube video is made framing the same thing differently. Like yeah, Honey’s practice is bad for the creator industry, but is it bad enough to bring it back to the people who took their money? No, I don’t think so.I think this is more of an example of how easy it is to get the masses angry with a YouTube video than anything. It’s good that more people are going to move away from this information harvesting app, but I really feel like the reaction and hatred is overblown and, at least for the hatred towards creators, unwarranted.
The way I see it, people still take money from predatory gambling sites, and if any creator deserves pushback, it’s them.
Some very vocal people on Lemmy just love hating on LTT. I don’t think this topic was worth them making a main channel video on, I think their forum post was good and I believe they even mentioned this functionality of Honey a few times on the WAN show. It wasn’t a secret, and anyone who cared to do in-depth research on a potential sponsor could have found out.
I want what you have so badly, I hate our ISPs
Roll-call for the lurkers! (If u want, no pressure)
Do the sites work if you use an extension that lies to them about what browser you are using?

Nah its 50/50, either you’re a USA English speaker or you’re not
We gotta make that virus, too. Just in case the fish-plant hybrids rebel.
I am disappointed in how long it took me to see the joke, but its a good one! I’m gonna have to go with page 72.
Some of us got your joke, no worries
Check out the dev stories from PalWorld, they bought a LOT of USB drives haha.
They only accept the highest quality content to train AI with
Update the site with mcafees phone number and only have the real one behind a click through you have to read
That’s not what that implies. I’ve seen that argument from religious people describing how atheists must be unruly because they have no incentive to meet a good afterlife.
I can still be clean, look how I want, and be nice to others just because I want to and I like it when others do the same.
I am a poorly trained large language model with legs, nice to meet you.
Thank you for this post. I was just scrolling by and wouldn’t have understood those comments unless I saw your post.
PineTime has been the only watch I’ve liked since my pebble, but it is a downgrade to my overall experience. If I want a good battery life (great, even) I can’t have an always on screen, and I miss the physical buttons for interacting without looking. The vibration motor is solid, though.
I will miss my 28 day long battery when I leave it. Hopefully a new pebble can achieve a similar battery life.
