It was 99% a lie even at its peak.

Yeah that would make sense except the overuse of tabs is at least a decade old phenomenon.

Eh just curious about the session info (what all that entails I’m not 100% on). I just know in Firefox tabs retain session info which keeps you logged in typically for sites where that’s a thing

Neat. Does it somehow save session info along with the link?

Yes and yes, to a degree. I think most people are hoarders on some small scale but at a certain point it’s harmful. But yeah digital hoarding is probably the least harmful type.

I don’t really see anyone admitting the truth: digital hoarding. At a certain number of tabs it becomes nearly impossible to find anything so it’s hard for me to believe people really find the practice as useful as they claim. I probably have 50 tabs open but I use a tab group extension that keeps most hidden (and Firefox doesn’t load the content in inactive tabs after you restart it). Most are essentially bookmarks but I’d be lying if I said even 20% of them end up being useful to keep open.

The question was “why?” Not "can you demonstrate the world’s most extreme case of this thing that baffles me?’

Speaking for yourself it would seem

Yes totally unique to America /s

Streisand effect. 0/10 shitpost.

Why do I feel like people bring these posts up so they can feel better about themselves by downvoting anyone who disagrees? Hm…

Because you enjoy vice signaling, apparently?

What a bizarre take

Piefed.social was too, on my end

Are you insane? Unless you’re looking for serious injury you leave it the fuck alone

Wanting to return it seems hurtful to me. You could probably just use it later, could you not?

This reminds me of a family member doing this once and not getting why it hurt my other relative. They eventually apologized because they realized rejecting a nice gesture is a dick move. Don’t be a dick.

You should focus on what could actually be done versus telling strangers that having 1% faith things might get better makes them a delusional moron who is at fault for “celebrating”. I’m done here.

I think that in their mind, anything short of being incredibly rude is telling everyone not to worry. They’ve kind of told everyone that they only believe in a world of binaries. Either you demand 100% climate crisis aversion despite how impossible that is, or you’re telling everyone not to care about the climate.

If you think a graph that shows a degree of positive change is nothing, there’s nothing you would accept short of avoiding the climate crisis entirely. Which is clearly impossible at this point.

And they get upvoted for spreading gloom, we get downvoted for pushing back against blind negativity whatsoever. I’m having another “I should probably leave Lemmy” day
