My opinions

Billionaires and Oligarchs: they should have ZERO political influence, ZERO control over critical resources and ZERO control over critical economic activities. I don't trust a single word that comes out of their mouths — if they say the sky is blue I look to the sky to be sure. There should be 200 Luigi Mangiones for every oligarch who steps out of line.

Donald Trump: Americans indeed descended into madness putting this orange retarded goblinoid creature in charge. The worst news about USA is always the next one, there seems to be no limits to the ammount of damage this fucking bozo can cause to his own country and to the rest of the planet along with Pissrael. It has reached a point that every nation in this world is rethinking their relations with USA.

All of this sick shit feels like a big experiment to try out different flavors of fascist retardation all around the world. It happened in Brazil in 2018 with Jair Bolsonaro and it can happen in any other country. If you hear some populist prick in your country advocating magically easy solutions to complex problems be very careful: perhaps the next nation to have a dumb incendiary clown as a president will be yours.

Smartphones: there are only two options really — Android or iPhone — which makes the state of affairs really shit for everyone who needs to use banking, messaging and government apps, they are all Android or iPhone only. Googled Android is an Orwellian device and iPhone is an expensive Orwellian device, both of them riddled with spyware and junkware. The quality of Android will keep falling like most stuff produced by big tech companies who are enshittifying their own stuff. We need either more companies that ship smartphones with ungoogled Android or with alternative open mobile operating systems.

Internet: internet is morbidly obese! And I'm not talking about complex webapps or single page applications, I'm referring to common blogs and websites with text-based content that are bloated with a truckload of JS scripts that screw up privacy, usability and adds no meaningful value in the process.

Internet also became more bland and centered around commodification of personal data. It used to be a symbol of a new horizon, a tool that would finally free people from mental shackles, a place of knowledge and creativity, but as time passed it became clear that human social problems are too tough and pervasive to be solved by a mere tool.

Technology: every piece of goddamn modern technology we use is now is bloated, clunky, less durable, less fixable and the quality keeps falling despite the wide availability of manufacturing techniques.

Commodification of personal data: the worst monstrosity that has been vomited by corporations in the history of internet. It's bad for privacy, for civil rights, for human progress and for us all.

Dark patterns: just another bullshit vomited by corporations as well. A neologism coined by the UX designer Harry Brignull, dark patterns (also called "deceptive design pattern" according to wikipedia) is a user interface created to trick users into doing things like buying overpriced products, sharing more information than they intend to, installing unwanted third-party software along with the main program etc.

Social media: "Social media constitutes an absolute zero grade of the social." — Han, Byung-Chul. The Expulsion of th Other: Society, Perception and Communication Today (p. 3). Polity Press.

The concept of social media by itself is not the issue, the main problem is what it became in the hands of big tech companies:

Big tech social media is designed to manipulate you, reward political lunacy and ruin your mental health in the name of profit.

Promote your business on social media might not be an option either unless you're willing to abuse clickbaits and work like crazy to please their algorithms. You'll be their hostages, and all the work you put into it can turn into dust if they decide to shutdown or shadowban your page.

Microsoft MicroSLOP: Microslop power lies mostly in vendor lock-in and not in quality. Dependence on their products is considered now a serious threat to sovereignty and even bureaucratic hells like governments are sparing no efforts to cut ties with them.

2026 updates:

Windows: became unusable after the deprecation of Windows 7. It wasn't extraordinary but was sane enough to use. Microslop hasn't added anything important to Windows since version 7, they just put a fancy interface on top of the old version along with a bunch of crapware that consumes a lot of computer resources and requires you to create a Microslop account.

We can safely assume that Windows now is exploitative overbloated trash, it turns your computer into a data mining machine for Microslop, reducing their computer costs by making you "share" some of your PC's valuable parts and power to perform their tasks of interest while also getting your private data to increase their profits.

Some people say that if a digital product or service costs you no money then you are the product. Guess what, you have to pay for legal copies of Windows and still was transformed into a product by Microslop. They put a digital leash on you and you paid for it.

Afer decades using Windows I'm deeply thankful for not having to install this crap on my personal computers anymore.

Update (2025-11-15): just found out that Windows 11 is using Reactive Native for some of it's UI components. Clicking the start button now can spike CPU usage by 30% to 70% on at least one core, depending on the hardware configuration. Thankfully I'm not in the Microslop train for personal computing anymore.

Google: "Don't be evil"...who the hell wants evil things nearby anyway? Any reasonable person wants goodness around, right? RIGHT?! Well, it seems that google realized that the "don't be evil" code of conduct wasn't good for business like their shareholders expected, so they throwed it away and did massive ammounts of corporate turd polishment using algorithms, marketing, and UX design.

Google haven't innovated for a while, and they adopted the same strategy as Microslop: acquire and destroy projects to sideline the competion. They killed so many of it's own projects that someone made a virtual cemetery to keep record of them all (and show you alternative services that you can use in their place).

2025 update: google has lifted a ban on using AI for weapons development and surveillance. How can they square that with "don't be evil" and "democracy values" is beyond me. "Don't be evil" is trully dead now. Who would have guessed?

2026 update: to complete the icing on the googlish fecal cake, they are trying to cope with not being Apple and are about to dismantle Android’s open legacy shoving developer verification over everybody's throat and preparing to lock down Android app distribution in the name of security. See more here and here.

Youtube Youslop: is drowned in ads and AI slop. Stupid algorithms that make channels lose viewers and subscribers, community guidelines that encourages the creation of bland content, video ads that lasts more than 2 fucking minutes, ads on the bottom of the video, ads that blocks the area right under the video in the app, ads that blocks the comments section, if you sneeze in front of youtube it shows you an ad...ads, ads, ADS.

The name should be changed to YouAD, AdTube, Adtopia, AdSlop, YouSlop or some shit like that.

Given the googlish mentality behind it the state of youtube quality isn't that surprising.

Apple: I never wanted to have an iWhatever, I never used an iWhatever, and I never will waste my money on an iWhatever, but the company is some kind of role model because every other company seems to be trying to suck Apple's dick somehow. Google is trying to copy them with plans to lock down Android app distribution in september 2026, Microslop tried to copy their UX and hardware requirements with Windows 11, and the list goes on.

Nintendo: talented but overly litigious company that adamantly defend even the breadcrumbs that fall from their table. They use legal proceedings to shut down anything from fan projects and emulators to YouTube videos.

They don't provide viable means to play old NES/SNES games but sue websites for distributing game ROMs that otherwise would be pretty much dead.

They sued a small grocer in Costa Rica named Super Mario, a store that’s been around with that very same name for over 50 years. Don't believe me? See by yourself.

It's an ugly mix of greed and plain pettiness.

Blizzard: this company was a symbol of inovation and good quality electronic entertainment with games like Diablo, Starcraft, Warcraft and WoW. It pains me to see the state of their stuff now. "Do you guys not have phones?" REALLY?!?!

Steam: I don't hate Steam, but I failed at every atempt of getting used to it, which leaves me out of the main walled garden of gaming. I'm in the wilderness of electronic entertainment I guess.
