Wow. That's crazy to me. What's the point?

I am surprised at how many artificial tree users there are. Way more than I expected.

I have mostly lived where I could just go get a real one from the woods if I wanted to, so I guess that gives me a bias. If I couldn't have a real tree, I dont think I would want one at all.

I am not much into christmas, but the whole bringing a tree home with a connection to nature makes it worthwhile. Love the smell of a fresh tree too.

Never had issues with needles or bugs so I find that strange as well. I mean sure, the tree drops some needles at the end, but that is what the skirt is for. The few outside of that is just a single day of vacuuming that you would be doing anyways.

Yeah I just occasionally click on communities and browser them without posts in an alphabetical list.

I wouldn't see any of that because I don't subscribe to it.

But I get that use case, block is the new name for filter I suppose.

I was thinking mostly about blocking commenters.

I will never understand the blocking mentality. Never done it. Online since BBS days and it has not been something I even consider doing.

The things I see are fine. People change their minds. I am never forced to engage with anyone thing I don't want to anyways that's what scrolling down is for.

Subscribe to what I like and simply ignore the rest.

Depends on where you live of course. I always find it very disconcernibg linking bank accounts even I countries where it should be ok. The fuck ups are way too many for me. I don't want any of that.

I like the ability to pay, I just don't want to allow them access or even knowledge of my bank account.

ironically that is the last thing i would want to give to a phone company

No, mine is a credit card, not a charge card. They would love for me not to pay it off every month.

Maybe more for the seller, I don't know but the cost to me is... Nothing. Well the benefit to me is about 3% back on anything I buy. No fees. Just another cheap card.

Lol what? It's just another generic credit card.
