  • Sad to say, but it’s likely some of this bump they’re getting is TYT listeners/viewers leaving after Cenk and Anna’s latest spar with literally everyone near their orbit (and even losing some contributors). Many -oh so many- disaffected MSNBC viewers turned to non-traditional media after 2016, I cannot imagine how many might be leaving for more actually progressive sources after the recent election… but TYT has fumbled the bag here by both attacking other progressives AND doing shit like Charlie Kirk “debates” and interviews with Tucker Carlson.

    I really hope they turn the ship around, because going after MAGA die hards isn’t the answer. At any rate, Majority Report seems to be doing just fine so there’s that.











  • because I do not trust big tech.

    Dude, same. I mean, I get that’s why many are here, but it’s just gotten so much worse lately.

    Starting to build my first Linux machine to use as my daily driver laptop. Been meaning to get into it all for years, but Microsoft’s constant shenanigans as of late and everyone on Lemmy really pushed me to take the plunge.

    It’ll be a “baby’s first project” of a used Thinkpad running on Mint, but it’s a start to getting out from under these corporate fucks. Every step away is a step to which I’m not planning to return.
