I was actually just answering the person's question and continued with a bit of rambling.

After seeing this bullshit, I have an offtopic question: can you block accounts on Lemmy? Pretty sure I never want to read any other line of this guy in my life.

Can you talk more about this here by posting a good quality source?

Their CEO was active on 4chan when they started the company

This one made me giggle. Who are you, the moral internet police?

Glory to Valve for investing in Proton.

Many Muslim leaders have called Islam a religion of peace. For example, the former Grand Imam of Al-Azhar, Ahmed el-Tayeb, has said that "Islam is a religion of peace and tolerance" and that "it is against all forms of violence and terrorism." The current Grand Imam, Ahmed al-Tayyib, has also said that "Islam is a religion of peace and love" and that "it is against all forms of violence and extremism."

Other Muslim leaders who have called Islam a religion of peace include the former King Abdullah II of Jordan, the former President of Indonesia Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, and the former Prime Minister of Malaysia Mahathir Mohamad.

Telegram's official components are open source, with the exception of the server which is closed-sourced and proprietary.

Telegram was launched in 2013 by the brothers Nikolai and Pavel Durov. Previously, the pair founded the Russian social network VK, which they left in 2014, saying it had been taken over by the government. Pavel Durov sold his remaining stake in VK and left Russia after resisting government pressure.

Telegram is registered as a company in the British Virgin Islands and as an LLC in Dubai. It does not disclose where it rents offices or which legal entities it uses to rent them, citing the need to "shelter the team from unnecessary influence" and protect users from governmental data requests. After Pavel Durov left Russia in 2014, he was said to be moving from country to country with a small group of computer programmers consisting of 15 core members. While a former employee of VK claimed that Telegram had employees in Saint Petersburg, Pavel Durov said that the Telegram team made Berlin, Germany, its headquarters in 2014, but failed to obtain German residence permits for everyone on the team and moved to other jurisdictions in early 2015. Since 2017, the company has been based in Dubai.

No vacation days in the first 12 months. Then 2 weeks of vacation per year, three weeks after 5 years of consecutive employment.

Damn, I'm happy to live and work in Europe right now, assuming that these are comparable numbers across the North American job landscape.

"Linus Media Group believes that vacation is a necessary opportunity for people to relax, refresh and recharge." LMAO

The rules on sick leave look quite awful as well.

I have, partially based on scientific data like this. It's okay that you won't.
