I assume you aren’t the kind of person who ever commented about DIY or code stuff then? If you were, hundreds of people would miss out on solutions to problems. Meanwhile, reddit and spez don’t lose a damn thing, except maybe a few hundredths of a cent here and there. If you’ve ever posted anything useful to reddit, you would be hurting people who are trying to use the Internet to help them in exchange for the idea of “getting at” some random CEO who doesn’t care.

On the other hand, if you never posted anything useful to anyone, carry on.

I will never understand the desire to destroy human knowledge out of spite.

I have a very new Thinkpad (X1 extreme Gen 5) and it has been a lot of trouble. Started out with a bad battery which I had to get support to change out. A few months later one of the fans jammed, and instead of being replaceable like on older models, it was welded to the Mainboard, meaning that the entire board needed to be replaced, CPU GPU and all. A few months later, my performance took a huge hit, and I needed to get the Mainboard replaced yet again. The customer support was really great, but they definitely don’t build them like they used to.

Maybe something with the lemmy v18 update? I hear it’s changed some backend stuff pretty seriously and it may take a day for it to get sorted out.
