    Because, running such services costs money. And this is not a charitable organisation. GMail does this for free because they’re making money off of you with ads and by selling your data.

    I really don’t get why this is so difficult to understand. Would you run a cafe offering free coffee?

        Everybody has their reasons and it doesn’t have to make sense to anyone else especially to a random person online like me. But just out of curiosity, what were you doing? If you don’t mind sharing it.

              I don’t want a debate; I’m just telling you you’re wrong, something very close to that and more involved does exist, I personally have executed on it, and you almost certainly wouldn’t understand why I did it.

              So you are wrong, the world is bigger than you think, and the example of what you thought was hyperbole is a thing someone who randomly saw your Lemmy comment had basically done before.

              And that you have a poor grasp of what motivates people.

                Lol. It’s really difficult to take anything you say seriously anymore because you claim to have figured out everything about someone online with just a few sentences, basically classifying you along the lines of a troll. So I hope you succeed in your ventures and wish you a very happy new year.
