Steam@lemmy.ml•Valve's reported profit-per-head from Steam commissions is out there, and at $3.5 million per employee it makes Apple and Facebook look like a lemonade stand
88·1 year agoWhat do you mean? It’s not like the App Store is all that devs get from Apple. Apple has an app dev kit and loads of APIs into the phone that they maintain.

137·1 year agoI also use Steam, but they were one of the OGs at taking a 30% cut from digital software sales. Apple always gets shit for this, but not Valve.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Venmo overdrafted my bank rather than use the balance in my accountEnglish
2·1 year agoYeah it’s a sneaky marketing term. In the worst cases, they’ll charge you a fee and let your balance go negative. I personally would rather my account reject a payment if I don’t have the funds rather than letting it go through and charging me for it.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Germany urges Apple and Google to remove DeepSeek from app stores over EU privacy concerns
71·1 year agoOkay, then tell them that. I’m just saying urging is stupid. Lawmakers can make laws.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Germany urges Apple and Google to remove DeepSeek from app stores over EU privacy concerns
102·1 year agoThey can pretty easily just pass a law banning it and Apple and Google will remove it from the German app store
I think liberal values like free speech, secularism, and tolerance might actually require defending from forces that abuse those values to destroy them. If this is the way to do it, then I think it’s becoming increasingly necessary. The fact of the matter is a lot of people are impressionable according to what they read and see. Society simply cannot function when there are malicious actors intentionally trying to spread divisive hate and misinformation. Make Facebook liable for hosting the kind of shit that led to January 6th.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are your approaches to donating?
71·1 year agoI give to politicians I really believe in. Occasionally, I give to nonprofits I support. My biggest gripe about giving is getting put on some stupid mailing list, where they send you junk mail. If I could give without telling them my identity, I would be more likely.

2·1 year agoI’m read only on a privacy front end for Reddit and write and read for Lemmy. I figure I can help grow this place by contributing while staying tuned in to things on Reddit. I do hope this place grows, but it seems to have plateau’d.
