Is anyone on Lemmy doing okay? I always come to the comments of these posts and see the doom and gloom. I’m a millenniaI. I paid off my student loans. I own a home I can afford. I’m debt free besides my mortgage. I have an emergency fund. I have a 401k that’s on track. I worked hard and made sacrifices to get where I am. I can only assume there are others out there who have done the same.

It is. I bought my house two years ago with a low interest rate and it’s still another four years before I’m paying more money towards my principal than interest.

Well I contribute to the 90% of lurkers. I upvote posts and comments. It ain’t much but it’s honest work.

Omg I’m 35 next month. I’ll be considered middle age. Fuuuuuuck… At least I’ll contribute to the non-binge drinking since I’m sober.

Yeah. Banned due to liability of the admins getting sued by big corp for hosting. It was really fun reading both sides. Some users pissed and threatening to leave the server. Others agreeing with the decision calling the opposing users whiny and asking why did you even join one of the biggest servers then? 10/10 recommend reading the threads.

That was a fun read. Thanks for posting.

I ask Siri to make phones calls and set a timer. I know these companies wanted us to use voice assistants more often but for me it was always faster to pick up my phone and do it myself. This reminds me of last year when articles were circulating about Amazons Alexa costing the company $3bn in the first quarter of 2022.
