As a CS dude who uses Linux and is around way too many people who seem like they genuinely are in need of some therapy on a daily basis, this entirely checks out, tbh.

I'm now mildly worried for my own mental state

Quite. That's why I used to use Pro, however. And ultra as a regular subscription is... a bit out of my price range. I've heard that there's an ad free only tier priced lower, but I couldn't find it in the app, so... shrug

I'll probably come back to it eventually after post-launch flux ends and such, but we'll see.

Yeah, same boat here. Was a longtime Sync Pro user back on reddit, and saw LJ as a dev worth supporting, but I'm not entirely on board with the changes on the privacy end. Maybe if that stuff changes I'll go back.

Up until the API debacle, that was my solution too. Now even that doesn't work. It's so bizarrely hard to look something up on the internet now.

Very much this. The atmosphere here doesn't feel any different than it did back on reddit, for better or worse. I feel like there was a time when reddit was less pessimistic, but there's been at least a little of that vibe for a long time.

Well, that will set a lovely precedent for other "free" democracies... the people are angry at you? Just take their voice! What could go wrong...

Is Passport ID really sufficient? Might be better to just ask for a verified picture of the entire passport, gotta make sure they are who they say they are!

... well, that's going to be incredibly confusing.
