There can be some crossover though…

You clearly didn’t read my question so I’ll repeat it: This is not an “unpopular opinion” post at all but a post about climate change, yes? I’m not disagreeing with you, I’m just saying you didn’t really make that clear in the original post at all.

A debate about climate change probably should have been posted in a different community since climate change is a fact and not an opinion

From every response I’m seeing here it’s pretty obvious that you’re not interested in anyone’s preference for different types of weather

So you mean your entire post was not about people’s preference for warm or cold weather at all, but about climate change?

You could have made that a lot clearer

People have been living in hot and humid climates since LONG before air conditioning was around. Believe it or not some people just like warmer weather.

It’s the same reason iPhones don’t allow you to use a memory card lol if you’ve used up all of your storage then it’s time to get a new phone!

Now that it’s been brought to my attention I will most certainly have a dream where I’m using my phone lol

I’m in my 40s, that guy is like 75 lol

I don’t pay YouTube shit

I spent a couple of hours trying it out once and couldn’t really get into it. I’m glad your relative is enjoying it though!

I think people hate on it because it just kinda seems like a cash grab that has little to nothing to do with the game Minecraft lol

It may also have to do with the fact that the kids who grew up playing Minecraft when it came out 13 years ago are all jaded adults now?

I can’t really say for sure… I was 30 when Minecraft came out and never really understood it’s appeal in the first place lol I think I’m too old to have an opinion about it 🤷‍♂️

Unless you can give me an exact specific definition of what “intellectually gifted” means in this context then all of this is just meaningless bullshit.

Fold it how? Fold it in half like a piece of paper???

That’s always an option sure, but since EVERY company does this now it means we all just stop watching TV basically. Maybe that would be the best thing after all though lol

You like it now, just wait though. In another year “YouTube Premium” will probably split further into basic and premium plus tiers. Basic will cost exactly the same except you now have to watch “limited” ads again, while Premium Plus will cost twice as much and be basically the same thing you’re paying for now plus some new bullshit feature no one cares about.

This is what YouTube has become. It’s what all the corporate services that like to make you think they care about you do. As long as we all keep shelling out more money for less services they will all just keep pumping us for every dollar they can possibly get.

It’s an unethical strategy called a “loss leader” where these companies offer a service they actually lose money on for a limited time until they get you to the point that you take it for granted. Then they make that same price point terrible and jack up the price for the good service you’ve come to expect.

You forgot this one

Perhaps that would be a better home for that community?

I’d say it’s more like I went to a party where the host invited the entire block but only wants people there wearing funny hats, but didn’t tell anyone they had to wear a funny hat and then called the police to complain that their house is full of people who aren’t wearing funny hats.

I’d take the ban without question if I was acting like an ass on there, but all I did was make a comment that didn’t specifically agree with them that everyone who isn’t vegan is apparently a horrible person who persecutes vegans constantly lol

I appreciate that, but I already blocked the mod and the community. There’s no point in even trying to deal with someone like that for a community I’m not super active in. I honestly can’t imagine that even vegan people will want to stay there much longer if it’s gotten this bad

I’m not vegan but I used to actually enjoy their posts. There were some interesting viewpoints and decent conversations before it turned into this weird little echo chamber lol

It was indeed! The post in question was particularly smarmy and my response was pretty tame in comparison. Why even have a community if you don’t want anyone to have a conversation?
