You wanna go back to BBS? Cause I'll go back to BBS

A perfect welrod 10/10

Retail stores rarely carry a phone older than two years, as long as they push new phones every year, people will be buying those phones.

OEM's could have like 3 battery types, mass produce these 3 and offer battery replacement for maybe 30 bucks or less? OEM's could have like 3 phone designs and update the internals, making each screen replacement maybe 50 bucks or less? Instead each has unique screen, motherboard, subboard and battery combo. My 10y/o nokia has the same battery as a new one, they cost like 5 bucks each.

Needless to say I love the EU for bringing back user serviceable batteries, that's a great start.

Yeeaah I drew the line at the printscreens, it was a really interesting video with a lot of effort and research put in, unlike this article.

Content and formatting rules are just to keep things on topic. When people mention the bare minimum of moderation, that is literally the bare minimum, and I never said they are struggling with it. They just choose to not remove any inflammatory or borderline content because they want to be that place.

it would be a lot less extreme than 4chan is

I don't really think so, every online fora I've been a part of starts unmoderated, and it works, for years sometimes. But every single time without fail when a platform reaches a critical mass, moderation becomes necessary.

I think putting a digital mask on shows the true nature of people, and moderation is the only way of keeping conversation* civil on the internet.

4chan is what the internet would look like if everything had the bare minimum of moderation. Actually a very interesting case study about the human psyche, and I've had many a interesting conversation on there, especially early internet days.

Is it a shithole? Overall, yes. But the right board at the right time is truly early internet ethos.

"Let's not assume people using this are male"

"This is not a place for politics"

Wh.. wha.. what? Do they not even believe in more than one gender?
