I've been working on writing my own forum in C# lately. Meant to look like some places I went on back in 2009-ish

So it's your opinion that corporations were not greedy before 2020?

Is it truly your belief that corporations were not greedy over the last 15 years, but somehow got really greedy at the same time that there were major supply chain shocks across the planet? Or is it more likely that "corporate greed" is a more enticing answer to a complex economic problem?

If the price increases were purely inflation then it would stand to reason that profits wouldn’t have gone up so much

During inflation, the value of EVERYTHING goes up. Companies pull in more money because money is not worth as much as it was

It's just inflation. Corporate greed is a poor excuse for price increases

I was perfectly happy with streaming services for a couple years when there were only like 2 good ones. I stopped torrenting for a long time and now I'm back to torrenting again

Tbh it seems like there are no good alternatives to protonmail. You just have to host your own
