I don't think they're selling any data from what I've heard. For now. The owner has a past of selling out.

France and Germany, in joint collaboration, have developed a Google Docs alternative - and its awesome! (Netherlands are currently onboarded) in c/technology@lemmy.world

I wish we did with more open source and local software. My school in Canada has some agreement with Microsoft so we have to use everything from them.
The school mail used for all accounts is hosted by outlook
The databases are all azure
The 2fa app on our phone to boot the school computer has to be Microsoft (even gave me shit because I am root...)
Teams
We had a whole course for a year on how to use word.

It's a public school. Obviously with this most students will move to the USA for higher pay, we are literally subsidizing the USA education.

That was meant to be ironic but it got lost it seems ;-;

What I meant was that, If you see stairs next to the escalator, most people just take the escalator. Same as if a bus is going where you are going to, most just take it without thinking.

I wanted to show that shaming her for taking the bus was ridiculous, just as shaming people taking the escalator instead of the stairs was ridiculous.

Do you take the escalator, or do you walk up the stairs ?

What a weakling you are for choosing the escalator.

Edit :

It seems that the irony got lost : most people just take the escalator for a mere 50 steps, just as most people would just take the bus if it's convenient. So all people in this thread shaming her are quite ridiculous.

As for me, I take the stairs instead of the elevator daily (5th floor) and wouldn't get on the bus because I have strong social anxiety.

It isn't easy to create sockpuppets because in case of a fight like here, Wikipedia decisions are taken by the oldest members. 20 new accounts can't override the decision of a 10 years old account with a lot of contributions.

Wikipedia has its issues, but not this one.

Enshittification Continues: Discord to begin showing advertisements on it's free platform in c/technology@lemmy.world

Discord has a really good reputation and the users are invested, it will take a long time to die even with enshitification. Remember that most people are used to ads and won't care as long as it starts with videogame ads.
