    Yeah I thought timing was interesting since I haven't been online in about a week when the other thing was posted and came back to this post. Btw it looks like SSSuper and Prime Super are the only ones on the list that seemed to actually be ethical.

    With the cost of living crises combined with the housing shortage I think everyone saw this coming. Some people have full time jobs and live in tents because they cannot get a house. Anyone who is surprised by the baby shortage is most likely rich and never had to experience what the rest of the population goes through.

    Same not only is corporate media filled with ads, there is no quality control. I installed an adblocker in june but it is good to have a place where I don't need to use it in the first place.

    I would rather a slow news day than a bunch of bad stuff happening tbh.

    “What the duck?!,” one person wrote, while another was convinced it was not a duck, but a dachshund poking out from behind the cape." Yeah I can see that.

    I just joined after already being on kbin social and lemmy world. It is nice to have an aussie instance. Also prefer the UI design here. (Edit I did not realise Lemmy updated.)
