I mean sure but you’re using the term “conservative” which is deeply embedded in american rhetoric. You’re basically saying that anyone who isn’t an ardent communist or anarchist should die, which is not exactly what Popper meant either…
Conservative just means opposed to radical change. Sometimes the world gets enshittified. Sometimes a thing you gave for granted changes, and the change hurts because you know what it was like before.

Google was born from In-Q-Tel. they’re literally the CIA. How uninformed is the average internet user to not see that the entire techbro oligopoly is simply the mask dropping? Sometimes I wonder what the koolaid tastes like. To believe that things just happen uncaused, that geopolitics is the weather, and that conspiracies are better explained by emergent behavior. That it’s never malice, just stupidity. That the top 1% is not on the far end of the bell curve, that they’re not merely pretending to be retarded. You know it’s like looking at the top chess players and concluding that it’s not skill (or anal beads), but dumb luck.
In other words the thing I’m mocking (and being downvoted for) is the notion that Google can be split up when it acts as an extension of the government. It’s like asking a person to cut off their own arm. Of course they won’t.
Bruh it’s 10 dollars PER YEAR.
I’ve owned a .com domain for over a decade, ever since BEFORE I actually had a job and was living on allowances, and it still doesn’t register as an expense to me.
The content I host on that domain has been used by 3 different people tops, which is me and a couple of my friends. It’s still worth it.
If I were to build a public-facing service I’d certainly fork over the bare minimum to guarantee that it fucking stays up even if I don’t expect thousands of users. It’s just a matter of doing things properly. Free domains have always been sketchy as fuck, every scam ever was hosted on a .tk domain at some point.
But as it has been stated multiple times already, the only reason they actually went with “.ml” is because they thought it would be funny for the marxist-leninist association. That’s literally it. It’s not about money. Anyone with access to a dev machine has 10 dollars a year to spend or they wouldn’t be shitposting on the internet.
Because it’s a carbon copy of reddit and it replicates all of its problems in miniature. Also because everyone in here is extremely exclusionary and hateful of anyone who isn’t wholesome 100. Also because it’s decentralized but not peer to peer, which means that it’s basically feudalism.
