Yeah, could be. Either way, there’s no chance the user was being serious.

Trollbait, it has to be. “no brand tie ins” is genuinely hilarious to me. I’m picturing a videogame reviewer going like: “The game is an artistic and a technical milestone. The gameplay is also the smoothest we’ve seen so far. Unfortunately, the game does not feature a Ronald McDonald skin or even a Slurpee coupon, so we have to give it a 7/10”.

I’m with Track_Shovel on this. No particular political orientation, but I agree on all the issues listed.

I would go with fed-UH-verse. The word Fediverse is a portmanteau of the words federate and universe, right? So if we’re going with the US pronounciation of the words it’s fed-UH-rate and you-NUH-verse, both have the “uh” sound in the middle.

Things get a bit trickier if we’re using the UK pronounciation, though. The word federate is largely the same, but universe gets pronounced you-NEE-verse, so it could go either way.

Linux since Windows XP. Windows Update broke me.

Haha, I’ll take it!

Hard to say. I guess I don’t die?

Thanks for the heads-up, OP. I was planning on building a new PC in a few months and I probably would have chosen Gigabyte as my mobo. I would have been so upset if I saw this after the fact.

What brand should I be looking at instead? ASUS?

And if you use FreeTube, you have Sponsorblock built in! Just remember to enable it in the settings first, it’s off by default.
