This community usually discusses consumer rights, but nobody is discussing this initiative. Is it maybe cuz Lemmy’s majority ain’t American?
So going on an ads platform to put the icon of a corporation to claim that this is helping? I’m really having hard times to understand the logic.
No, it won‘t. What this does is helping you take action and fight against it, knowing you are not alone. It really gives you moral support when seeing clippy on other youtube videos making you feel there are many of you who do not tolerate the bullshit.
I’m not changing my PFP to a Microsoft product in hopes Microsoft stops fucking people. Slackativism is cringe.
I just move away to freedom respecting tech and talk about it with the people around me.
wait hold on, i know those eyes. was this made by the surreal unix guy?
niiice, i fucking love this guy’s artstyle
Yeah, from this post a week ago.
oh shit
Yeah, but he can’t. That’s the point.
That is a deeply unserious point
I can count the amount of fucks any tech giant gives about Clippy avatars on a snake’s hands.
No I’m American and I just think it’s silly and won’t change anything.
We don’t discuss companies screwing us here but us screwing companies.
I think the clippy movement is cute so yes I’m wearing the mask, just let me know when we’re blowing up parliament.
It is very silly.
The video is monetized, and by having some ppl change their pfp to clippy and then linking to his video - I mean congrats to Mr. Rossmann for the big $$$
I really don’t like him
but nobody is discussing this initiative
Well, go ahead. Discuss it. I don’t know what it is.
Clippy is such a stupid mascot for this “movement”.
Yep, not just there. I don’t know if it’s going to change anything fundamental but I agree with the sentiment and if nothing else, it’s a statement of solidarity with other people who might feel like everybody around them is giving in to the slopshittification.
I don’t know what being American or otherwise has to do with it btw.
Louis sucks ass as a YouTuber. He likes to hear himself rant. That’s literally his only quality.
What, saying popular opinions out loud?!
I don’t like him
I’m from the USA and I have no idea what you’re talking about. What’s the context here, what is adopting a corporate marketing image as my profile picture supposed to accomplish?
No. Deleted my WhatsApp account though.
Je suis charlie
This is the first time I’m hearing about it. Why should I do it?
