I'm much younger than you think I am

Three or four years at this point, so technically not including some of the ridiculous inflation, but the cost of living in that area has barely increased. Rent is $900 on average there right now, so if you're pulling in 25 an hour you're making plenty to live alone relatively comfortably

Yes. When I lived out there I would've killed for 25 an hour. I was making 7.50 an hour and with a roommate I lived pretty okay. At 25 I could've lived alone and still saved

I was slightly exaggerating sure, but 25 an hour outside of a city is a lot of money.

Define "the US" because 25 an hour is living a life of luxury in much of the US that's not a major city

Stumblinbear , to Lefty Memes in fair share?
@Stumblinbear@pawb.social avatar

Wealth taxes are stupid. That said, nobody needs multiple hundreds of billions of dollars.

The solution is to have regulations and laws in place that prevent them getting this large in the first place. The fact that Amazon and Google own 90% of the internet is absolutely fucked.

Stumblinbear , to Technology in My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use...

Have you even used Lemmy for anything except meme reposts?

Stumblinbear , to Memes in I like the web app more.
@Stumblinbear@pawb.social avatar

No, reddit demanded ludicrously high fees at barely 30 days notice. It gave nobody any time at all to figure out alternative monetization strategies. Many of the third party apps had expressed their willingness to pay, but that was just absurd

Nobody's really hiding the existence of slaves, so I'm not sure what you're trying to say here
