That’s a very reasonable point of view, but couldn’t they still achieve this by creating some filter that says “family” within the Disney+ app so that they can still isolate toons and family movies and series?
However, it’s also true that my experience with all these sites is that content is poorly arranged and searchable, so keeping them separate might have simplified this
Isn’t everyone?
I’ve never used Twitter, nor liked it, but in 2010 I had to observe that it was indeed useful when it became one of the primary ways for people to communicate during the Arab Spring.
Since then I kept not being into it, but at least I thought it had some important value I had not seen.
Now it’s all locked up, so it really has become useless (and I haven’t even talked about the rampant disinformation)
RIP Twitter

I can’t believe Micro$oft is still trying to pull this shit after it was fined for this in the European Union.
Hopefully, they’ll fine them again, because this is unacceptable.
No, I don’t use Windows, but people who use it and are less tech savvy should not be jumping through so many hoops to make the switch
Not really, no. I said I informed myself about alternatives to Reddit (as an example) and then dropped it and moved to Lemmy.
I said jumping ship for King may be hard for various possible reasons which I was trying to guess (and don’t pretend to know).
Mastodon is further along than Lemmy is, so I hope Stephen King can move there soon, but it might still take time.
If you have an X account (I never used Twitter/X), you can write King to let him know about Mastodon
Let’s hope it resists!
It’s not easy to jump ship (because of the network effect) and possibly not being tech savvy enough to know where to land.
I jumped ship from Reddit this year after reading some posts about alternatives. I tried Tildes too, which I found interesting, but more of an experiment, than a substitute.
King (and others like him) may not know alternatives exist and can work just as easily.
Also, even if King knew of Mastodon, maybe his fans wouldn’t jump ship too even if he had said he’s moving there
It’s complicated
He was Bankman, now he’s Fried
A lot of people kept trying to tell me Discord was the new Reddit and a new ultimate messenger type software. I tried it a bit and found it lacking on both sides.
Perhaps it will swallow the rest of the world, but I’m happy with Lemmy and other messengers.
I’ll give it another go from time to time
