    The thing that is immediately solvable is to go meet people on proprietary platforms.

    We are communicating on Lemmy… it seems possible to meet people off proprietary platforms.

    Which they are avoiding for ethical reasons. It is not possible to be perfectly ethical and happy.

    This feels a bit like telling a vegetarian to go eat a steak.

        I use paper bags because it seems like the best solution currently. Recycling paper is relatively easy and something that some people do in high school or middle school. Besides recycling them they are also biodegradable, they completely break down and don’t harm the environment. You can’t recycle plastic bags due to the type of plastic it is so they are directly a waste product that’s non-biodegradable and photodegrade over 1,000 years.

        Why did you choose paper bags over plastic bags? Was that decision influenced by… no… it can’t be: ethics?!

        Even the Lemmy software isn’t made by ethical people in my book.

        “Your book” is riddled with inconsistencies and assumptions about me. Methinks you are simply here to argue.
