The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with YSK.
All posts must begin with YSK. If you're a Mastodon user, then include YSK after @youshouldknow. This is a community to share tips and tricks that will help you improve your life.
Rule 2- Your post body text must include the reason "Why" YSK:
**In your post's text body, you must include the reason "Why" YSK: It’s helpful for readability, and informs readers about the importance of the content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-YSK posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-YSK posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
If you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

Reddit is going crazy because they are calling him a millionaire. I'm sorry, but making a million dollars over the past decade makes him paid less than a regular developer, and 1 million dollars can't even buy you a crack shack in Canada.
Remember, Canada is the most expensive place to live. We have the most expensive housing and internet/data plans in the entire world.
Think logically. Don't think like childish Redditors.
Wait, Redditors are now bandwagoning on this slander too? I just figured it was a bullshit claim that u/spez made that the rest of the Reddit community saw through and weren't buying.
If there actually is a large number of people actually believing this shit, then my already rock-bottom hope for Reddit has somehow plummeted further.
Every reddit thread about Apollo is filled with hate against Apollo and christian.
The message that's being repeated is that he's made millions of the poor backs of reddit and should be ashamed for taking advantage of the free api. Him asking to decline the refund is a scam/fraud to squeeze the last money he can from his poor users.
I would not be surprised to find out that the posts comes from bot farms or spez himself.
Dude, it's the internet. People are dumb by default around here. (Me very well included.)
Millionaire absolutely doesn't mean what it did 30-40 years ago, too. Billionaire is a bit excessively high and isn't quite comparable to what millionaire used to be, and while of course most people have way less due to how the economy works, having a net worth of 1 million isn't a huge hurdle these days. We need a word for 100-millionaire. I'm sure Selig is not a 100-millionaire.
On the bright side, having Apollo on his resume should make landing a good dev job (assuming he didn't have one already) pretty easy.
He still shouldn't be on the hook for $250k though.
They will still ask him to invert a binary tree, just to be sure he can code

Last I heard Winnipeg was part of Canada, and I'm seeing quite a lot of nice, sizable homes under a million dollars.
Oh, you mean specific cities in Canada? That leads us to this then:
No Canadian city made it into this top ten list.
None made it into this top ten list either.
OK, let's look at internet plans.
Oops. Not only does Canada have nowhere near the most expensive Internet access, it's near the BOTTOM of costs relative to income worldwide!
