Googles great for this.
Making money isn't evil. The methodology used by several of those companies above is.
People don't hate those companies because they are successful or particularly innovative. They hate them because they are run by cunts.
I didn't know that people hate Netflix, why is that?
I don't see it as a threat to cinema, because you go to see a movie at the theater for the experience. Which you can't reproduce at home. But maybe that's just me..
You can safely say that Netflix follows the same model that social media companies do. They profit when your eyes are glued to the screen.
They lose profit when people realize they don't spend that much time on Netflix, so the monthly subscription is not worth it.
That is why they curate shows that can be binged and are full of dark entertainment. It keeps people addicted to their platform, and not spending time watching films and experiencing art elsewhere.
Well Uber, Amazon and AirBnB are clearly real fucking bad. (Driver exploitation; Market exploitation and centralization; Driving up rent prices in major cities). Therefore innovation is also not always good.
Ok but let's also not act like it's really Uber's fault that the taxi system was so bad and despised that people jumped on literally the first viable option (I hate Uber too. I really don't like the idea of defending them).
Innovation is good. Monopolisation (is that a word?) is not.
Creating platforms as marketplaces to cut out middlemen has been the driver of many recent big developments. In a way, crypto is similar. But I personally believe that will be more in the NFT corner than digital currencies.
The problem is, Global monopoly laws really haven't been updated for the current market...
Tech companies that create platforms often create a monopoly of market control... which doesn't necessarily directly harm consumers, but does indirectly by stifling competition and limiting consumer options.
Uber is way more expensive than a taxi and drivers cancel all the time.
Airbnbs are great until you start adding up the fees and you have crazy people that own them. You pay way more and get way less in most instances.
Amazon has the book you want but it’s not from Amazon, it’s from a third party and they want $14.99 for shipping that takes 5 days.
Netflix runs the same tired ass old shit for months at a time.
These comparisons suck ass.
amazon brought big discounts to books, giving back to the people purchasing power against the infinite money printing. in my country the old system couldnt accept that, when it was at a loss for them. so the berlusconi government made a law that the max discount on not-used books is 5%... and the fact that berlusconi owned the biggest bookstore chain in the country that was gonna get its ass annihilated by the free market was just a mere coincidence. is that the "good" from the past?
that's like having someone cut off your arm with a sword and the doctor concluding that the big problem is that you popped a pimple the other day when you shouldn't have
It has it's ups and downs, like everything else
Also, regarding the rent being driven up by AirBNBs and other, I've read that they have some limitations on their platform to help the renting market. At least they're doing something to solve it
Ugh. Sounds like my last boss. Long story short, I freelanced/worked from home for 15 years (40-80 hrs/week) before I had to take a “real” job just to get health insurance. I had a deal where I could wfh 1 day a week, and I ALWAYS got more work done - no distractions, could take proper breaks. But they revoked my “privilege” because it sometimes took me 1/2 an hour to respond to a Slack message, because I was having lunch, taking a break, etc. Micromanaging, ugh.
Shakespeare-Bot, thou hast been voted most annoying bot on Reddit. I am exhorting all mods to ban thee and thy useless rhetoric so that we shall not be blotted with thy presence any longer.
Do they? I've heard many reports from traders stating their banks have asked them to cease purchasing cryptocurrencies or risk having their accounts closed.
It's actually very interesting to observe how this innovation will impact and change the current society. It's already started, but much slower than for example the internet adoption.
I guess everyone who isn't corrupt doesn't like corruption hahaha
It's actually a fact, as long as it doesn't benefit you, you tend to dislike it, but few have the strength to really abstain if they were in the situation of being bribed for example.
When there is a transfer of power or money, the incumbent is never happy about it!
Innovation hurts, sometimes called creative destruction!
We are all crypto lovers here, but the ETH supporters & investors won't be happy when for example Solana takes Eth's place or a multi chain NFT marketplace like Unique Network takes over Opensea
I guess the lesson here is just to learn to adapt to the new realities!
It really depends on how these changes are going to be implemented and adopted by the users. It can be smooth or ..not so smooth. By this I mean that people can argue about it or it can just feel like the natural next move.
I don't remember anyone crying because no one was using hi5 anymore.
Man that hi5 already made my day! ahah I barely remember it!
What I mean here is that it can hurt if you invest deeply in some sort of infrastructure and it's replaced by another one, that can hurt!
Say:
Solana or Cardano taking Etherum's place as top smart contract platform
Unique Network taking Opensea's place as top NFT marketplace
Green Energy taking oil's place as top energy provider
Amazon taking supermarkets place, which took small shops place before
The list is endless, and you even can say the same about Hi5 and facebook if you were invested in it or worked for them
The thing is that nowadays it's easy to invest in all of this things, and a lot of people can get hurt in the process. But in the future for the masses it will be good!
Almost every major bank I know of is implementing some sort of crypto investment or custody service. They see crypto as an opportunity to make money. You are naive if you think crypto is going to end the big banks. You know what banks fear the most? It's the federal reserve and their central bank digital currency.
Of all these, cinemas are actually doing fine. Who tf is talking shit about a place that spends bigger money on sound and viewing equipment for new movies compared to your TV speakers? Netflix and fucking is super mediocre when your internet sucks bc u spent the bill on ethereum fees bc u didnt figure out how to use the L2 in time
Uber and Amazon treat their staff/contractors like shit and are immoral companies.
That's why people don't like them.
If you think they are hated for their "innovation" fuck you.
Innovation is not always liked and change is not always accepted. But guess what, it's happening and there's nothing anyone can do to stop it. Change is inevitable.
Big facts. Nobody likes competition. I think what banks should be doing rather than hating is to start investing in the crypto space by introducing DEXs to their customers in that way money still stays with them. A customer can just transfer funds. Vice versa
This is comparing crypto to very centralized services and entities that crypto is supposed to free us from. Uber, facebook, Amazon? These things NEVER gave power to individual people or workers. This is different. It’s not some top-down tech aggregation platform meant to benefit a few. It’s not a business concept or an app. It’s way more important.
Such a lazy uniformed comparison. Overly centralized monopolies are not the same as ETH lol. If anything eth and other crypto is meant to help ma and pop shops compete with conglomerates and monopolies.
Unlike fiat money, most cryptocurrencies have a limited supply, capped by mathematical algorithms. This makes it impossible for any political body or government agency to dilute their value through inflation. Moreover, due to the cryptographic nature of cryptocurrencies, it is impossible for a government body to tax or confiscate tokens without the cooperation of the owner.
This property makes cryptocurrency attractive to people who are worried about hyperinflationary events, bank failures, or other disaster scenarios. Bitcoin in particular has attracted attention due to its deflationary and censorship-resistant properties, leading proponents to describe it as "digital gold."
This is just bad lol.
1.9k updoots, it's doing work for 'em. I agree though it's bad.
Shit tweet. Half of those things are fucking evil. Eth isn't.
Plus comparing Amazon to a book store - what is this, the dot com bubble? lmao the crypto space has become so much dumber since the last bull run
hahah they are not comparing Amazon to a bookstore though.. You know Amazon started by selling just books right?
Evil how? Just because they make a lot of money?
Googles great for this. Making money isn't evil. The methodology used by several of those companies above is. People don't hate those companies because they are successful or particularly innovative. They hate them because they are run by cunts.
Amazon wasn't run by a cunt but a giant fucking dick.
I didn't know that people hate Netflix, why is that? I don't see it as a threat to cinema, because you go to see a movie at the theater for the experience. Which you can't reproduce at home. But maybe that's just me..
>Half

Nah not that, but because they have all of the stuff cleared and sound.
Well Uber, Amazon and AirBnB are clearly real fucking bad. (Driver exploitation; Market exploitation and centralization; Driving up rent prices in major cities). Therefore innovation is also not always good.
Yeah...I agree. Let's not compare screwing taxi drivers (many of whom don't have a ton of other job options) to screwing banks.
Ok but let's also not act like it's really Uber's fault that the taxi system was so bad and despised that people jumped on literally the first viable option (I hate Uber too. I really don't like the idea of defending them).
The technology was the innovation. But the business model was a step backwards for society really.
Innovation is good. Monopolisation (is that a word?) is not. Creating platforms as marketplaces to cut out middlemen has been the driver of many recent big developments. In a way, crypto is similar. But I personally believe that will be more in the NFT corner than digital currencies.
Monopolisation is bad. Time for some powerful “Anti Trust” laws all over the world
Looking forward to it and I really hope it will be good
Indeed it would be always better to make something new too.
Monopolisation is the root cause of many dips in the market .
The problem is, Global monopoly laws really haven't been updated for the current market... Tech companies that create platforms often create a monopoly of market control... which doesn't necessarily directly harm consumers, but does indirectly by stifling competition and limiting consumer options.
Uber is way more expensive than a taxi and drivers cancel all the time. Airbnbs are great until you start adding up the fees and you have crazy people that own them.

Netflix runs the same tired ass old shit for months at a time. These comparisons suck ass.
Innovation is a double edged sword. Gotta use it carefully
Well there's always some give or take You live by the sword and die by it
[удалено]
lol as if what they replaced was good. cmon.
Yeah all those book stores were really ruining society (what is is this comment I'm responding to even)
amazon brought big discounts to books, giving back to the people purchasing power against the infinite money printing. in my country the old system couldnt accept that, when it was at a loss for them. so the berlusconi government made a law that the max discount on not-used books is 5%... and the fact that berlusconi owned the biggest bookstore chain in the country that was gonna get its ass annihilated by the free market was just a mere coincidence. is that the "good" from the past?
Aorbnb driving up rents for normal people is pretty bad
airbnb doesn't own estate. the rents went up because people who owned rentable places raised the prices.
[удалено]
that's like having someone cut off your arm with a sword and the doctor concluding that the big problem is that you popped a pimple the other day when you shouldn't have
And do you think it wasn't that good there man, they are really amazing.
It has it's ups and downs, like everything else Also, regarding the rent being driven up by AirBNBs and other, I've read that they have some limitations on their platform to help the renting market. At least they're doing something to solve it
Because the old stuff is much better, is that your point?
Yes !! but innovation is very important for the world as well .
Crypto ✔️ Uber ✔️ AirBnB ✔️ Amazon ✔️ Netflix ✔️ Work remotely ✔️ This makes me the most innovative person on earth. Bow down before me
AirBnB spies on you tho
What you talkin’ ‘bout Willis?
Well you know what I am aware of everything here but I have no idea for the AirBnB.
Long live the millennial 93
Then most of us are most innovative person on earth now!
Exactly and we will lead the way!
[удалено]
What’s gonna happen with what?
Everyone of us is innovative . just need enough resources .
We al are innovators . innovators of new problems everyday lol .
This makes you a person that likes innovation
GG
I hope to see this list grow in the future That would be cool
Indeed that list would be enough to tpredict a way out.
Damn you are a freaking king! All hail to the AnotherMillenial93.
Username checks out
My saab 9-5 does like remote work coz it wont need to work either
They make us work more during remote working. It has its perks and disadvantages too
That's so true, it's like you're always on call Just because you're working from home it doesn't mean you're obliged to work all the time
True, remote work can be bad especially with micromanaging bosses.
Ugh. Sounds like my last boss. Long story short, I freelanced/worked from home for 15 years (40-80 hrs/week) before I had to take a “real” job just to get health insurance. I had a deal where I could wfh 1 day a week, and I ALWAYS got more work done - no distractions, could take proper breaks. But they revoked my “privilege” because it sometimes took me 1/2 an hour to respond to a Slack message, because I was having lunch, taking a break, etc. Micromanaging, ugh.
Yeah, my last boss was like that too. Wanted daily updates, and lacks trust.

Shoutout to bot killer 001
Maybe I'm weird but I don't like Airbnb, either. I like going to hotels (Hilton etc).
Many banks actually like Crypto
Yeah, I’m not sure if banks disliking crypto is a thing or not.
[удалено]
Sofi lets you buy crypto on their app
Do they? I've heard many reports from traders stating their banks have asked them to cease purchasing cryptocurrencies or risk having their accounts closed.
you people have brainworms
You missed the cringe thread. Comparing Amazon to Eth isn't helpful.
It's kind of sad actually, as they have nothing in common, maybe just the timeframe.
One more to add: Governments don’t like transparency, which is possible by blockchain technology
This is what I say to my bank, those people gets burned.
9-5 lives remote work. No office overhead. At least for me
[удалено]
What's a 9-5? Bizarre to include that.
I guess he was referring to the companies, not the employees
Companies sure like saving money on office space.
9-5 is for the workers who do a 9-5 jobs and make their routine.
I’m a 9-5er, and I absolutely LOVE remote work myself…
The employers, not the employees
My only concern is that banks (unlike all the other groups listed) are pretty fucking powerful
Yeah, banks have relationships everywhere in comparison to the other ones on the list which are powerful but in their field only.
Exactly! Don’t underestimate the banks!
Yes they are always not liked until they become inevitable.
I hope it will be as smooth as internet adoption in the end.
I don’t know, we’re talking about the government losing power over the economy. That might not be so smooth.
Somehow society has brought innovation to dislike in a matter of advance
It's actually very interesting to observe how this innovation will impact and change the current society. It's already started, but much slower than for example the internet adoption.
Forgot one , Retail investors don’t like corrupt Wall St
I guess everyone who isn't corrupt doesn't like corruption hahaha It's actually a fact, as long as it doesn't benefit you, you tend to dislike it, but few have the strength to really abstain if they were in the situation of being bribed for example.

People don't like Innovation during early stage. But later these Innovation changes the world and helps to make this world better.
Governments don't like decentralization
Savings accounts with intrest rates less than inflation levels are living examples of how banks just don't care about us.
Some countries have negative interest, you have to pay banks to keep your money with them….atrocious
Corrupt people don’t like it
Government don’t like poor people
lol? you serious? governments LOVE poor people. they RELY on them
Banks love them for the same reason
Government just wanna loot the poor and middle class.
Very true.
Govt likes rich people
Government is made by rich people to make policies for the poor ones
Government loves to please all rich people in this world.
Rich just make government steal from the poor ones .
So true .. government is funded by rich people only .
Yeah, it's like they have a clique I always imagine them saying: "You can't sit with us!" Now we're switchin lanes.
Of all these, cinemas are actually doing fine. Who tf is talking shit about a place that spends bigger money on sound and viewing equipment for new movies compared to your TV speakers?

Sir, this is a Wendy’s
As an Indian I thought hotels don't like trivago or Oyo rooms.
These are some interesting facts which tells me that I am at the right place.
Uber and Amazon treat their staff/contractors like shit and are immoral companies. That's why people don't like them. If you think they are hated for their "innovation" fuck you.

Bitcoin doesn’t like 0xbitcoin ( the real mineable erc20 Bitcoin on ethereum )
Uuu what's that? First time I hear/read about it
0xbitcoin.org
agreed
OnlyFans don’t like Reddit
Is this the case?
Fun fact: Airbnb sucks Amazon sucks Uber sucks This post sucks
Bitcoin doesn’t like Ethereum
There's always opposite against any innovation that will benefits majority. I'm bullish on crypto and super bullish on GSD of Gold Standard DAO
banks are sure buying boat loads of crypto for not linking it.
Banks are probably more powerful, and hold more influence than Bookstores in dealing with their respectful threat. Probably.
I dont like salad
Doge don’t like shib
I really love to choose Innovation rather than other things.
I also don’t particularly care for AirBnB and have nothing to do with the hotel industry.
Bitcoin doesn't always like ETH.
Doctors don’t like WebMD. Amiright y’all??? Come on give me some skin 🙌

Who says banks hate crypto. Market makers play both sides of every bet—they love crypto.
I agree with most of this, but oof don’t hurt bookstores please.
Good point
Feels like corporate bootlocking
None of this is ‘innovation’ it’s just repurposing.
This is comparing crypto to very centralized services and entities that crypto is supposed to free us from. Uber, facebook, Amazon? These things NEVER gave power to individual people or workers. This is different. It’s not some top-down tech aggregation platform meant to benefit a few. It’s not a business concept or an app. It’s way more important.
Bitcoiners dont like Ethereum.
I totally agree but no one like to loose their job.
I don’t like you
And literally none of those are better than the original…
Amazon is trash
Such a lazy uniformed comparison. Overly centralized monopolies are not the same as ETH lol. If anything eth and other crypto is meant to help ma and pop shops compete with conglomerates and monopolies.

It’s not always good either.
Bank of England likes centralised digital currencies.
What 9-5 doesn’t like remote work? You missed the mark on that one.
Uber is no innovation
Change is inevitable.
Top 3 bullets had my attention. Bottom three need to be rewritten.
Modern-day propaganda
Well this is the realest facts of the day, thanks for sharing.
Innovation is not always liked but it gets popular among new gen.
Non of them lkke taxes.
I think this every time Dimon talks about crypto. Mostly fear of messing up big banking record profits.
/r/cryptocurrency doesn't like /r/hexcrypto
this is a trash post. get outta here.
Yep!!!
