not even that, a lot of stuff on there is effectively just reality TV and just makes me die inside when i see the thumbnails

Same with most only fans content I find on twitter. Holy mother of fake enthusiasm...

Is the huge shift shift from iOS to Android to the fact iPhone users are typically less tech savvy, so places that banned porn hub (like Texas) effectively banned those users, who also weren't savvy enough to use a VPN?

Which doesn't include any of the kids those moronic laws are purported to protect.

I was going to suggest the cost of living crisis has made people adopt more reasonably priced phone options

Vrooom go OSS!

Pornhub wrapped, haha. I do appreciate the stats, though.

The steam deck does seem like a good device for "bedtime" browsing.

More seriously, this data is probably less biased toward tech literate users than most similar surveys that get published here. This is really encouraging

It's a little heavy to hold 1 handed for that long.

That's what you get the kickstand attachment for

The most compelling evidence I've ever seen for the elusive "year of the Linux Desktop".

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Windows' growth is double the absolute percentage of Linux's total even with its growth.

It's essentially the year of "Not Apple."

Remember kids, when you watch porn on Windows, Bill watches with you.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago (2 children)

A better, more factual, reminder is that if you're not using a VPN, your ISP is recording all of that, and potentially selling that information.

This is not fear mongering, like the comment I'm replying to. It's very real.

[–] drosophila@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

They can see what website you go to, and how much data you exchange with it, but not what specific page on that site you're looking at or what specific data you send (for example my ISP can't tell that I'm making this specific comment).

Provided the site is using SSL of course.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 2 points 6 days ago

True, though all they can see is the domains/IPs and the rough traffic flow, nothing specific. And I'm not fearmongering, I'm making a joke. :P

Hypothesis: Pornhub is effected by a lot of the bans in places like Texas. I don't see ChromeOS or Apple users as the kind of folks who know how to find their ways around those bans, but Windows and Linux users are more likely to via VPNs and such.

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

I had the same thought! Lol, on reddit I'd lay ideas like this out and get an ocean of "Reeeeee!" in response to it from Apple fans. But I think it's very true.

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago (5 children)

Affected*. I don't think special effects are involved.
