For people curious, it was a post about the increase of prices of Disney+ over the last few years.
I was expecting some negative reactions, it’s Disney of course, but the amount of aggressive comments was over the roof.
The thing is, I took the picture from the Internet as a way to demonstrate that indeed, corporate is bad. I personally don’t have any streaming service subscription.
Lemmy is usually quite chill, but guess this community not so much.
See you around.
Surprised it got a lot of backlash. The price increase of streaming service is bullshit while they’re removing sharing password and worse experience for the users.
Though, I saw the same picture on reddit through RSS-Feed. Haven’t checked the comments on that one, I’m curious now though.
Feel free to have a look: old.reddit.com/…/the_price_increase_of_disney_ove…
The few top comments are quite neutral, then it gets into the “CANCEL. YOUR. SUBSCRIPTION.” territory.
So I guess now Lemmy is on par with Reddit? Anyway
K, see ya around
What are you complaining about? Why do you care? Who gives a shit?
How does this relate to the post? The OP deleted the post themselves.
Yup, lemmy is better than reddit as a platform sure, but as a community? Ehhh
Some idiot said it was “almost required”
And a bunch of people piled on him for being ridiculous.
I’m skeptical of your claim
Mate your account is 2 weeks old. You’re not important.
You mentioned a corporation and for whatever reason that brings rage to a lot of people on here. It’s FOSS, donation only, or gtfo. If you develop anything and expect to to be paid you are the devil if if your a lonely sole developer.
Didn’t it start lower? I thought it started at $5 a month.
But yea, I pretty much only subscribe to ones I use regularly. Which is mostly just Crunchyroll. Dr I’m not happy about them taking over Funimation. Now it’s mostly just Crunchyroll and HiDive. Occasionally Disney, Netflix, or Hulu gets an exclusive.

Honestly I’m more disappointed that this isn’t the first time on Lemmy that I’ve seen someone delete a post and then try to make a big scene about how they didn’t like the responses they got and were giving up on a community.
Lemmy has so little content that your complaint post gets to be top of a community for a while, so that’s nice.
You’re not the main character, people are entitled to opinions, and you don’t have to care or take them personally. It’s the internet, there will always be someone who complains even if it’s entirely unwarranted.
