Thank you for pointing out this clearly superior word, you expanded my vocabulary!

I get the Mousewitz part but what’s the reference to Dachau about? Duchau read like Duckau as in Donald Duck?

"Hello I'm [generic person 2387362] and I'm the community manager for [generic corporation/tool/product 1892873]! I just started a few weeks ago and I'm so excited to announce that in the interest of [generic engagement and advertising], we've started a discord server! We [positive transitive verb] our community, and want to bring them together so they can share some of the [productivity success stories] they've had or ask the community for support! Remember, while this is an official [generic corporation] channel, by joining this community you agree to [27 pages of legal terms about them owning your messages and data farming you]."

They do, but have you ever seen a party that everyone knows about but no one shows up to? That's Microsoft's non-paid chat service.

It’s normal to just meet people where they are at on all the various platforms. As long as you can pipe everything back to customer data platform increasing scale through multiple social platforms has almost no downside and pretty minimal cost.

Don't they have a chat product?

Many. And Discord is among them.

Seems like I missremembered something.

They would have run it into the ground with mismanagement and a new chat application would become the popular choice within a year, while Microslop's new acquisition fades into obscurity, eventually to be depreciated and shut down my Microslop themselves.

As has happened multiple times already in history.

If it was the only bad thing about Microsoft, it would be pretty great though.

*deprecated

Please edit your post to add Nopilot instead of copilot, its the superior word

I've said this before that if they made it optional and gave us the choice of using it as part of the operating system, then people might use it and might find reasons to like it. But shoving it down our throats is offensive and rapey. I'm not interested in being raped by microslop.

In fact, I am violently opposed to it. If one of the people that are shoving nopilot down our throats was in front of me, I would attack that person, at least verbally, but also possibly physically depending on their response.

I still use windows 10.

Who else would even join except bots?

Microsoft has over 200k employees, and the people (person?) managing the discord are probably at the bottom of the totem pole. I doubt they put more than 5 seconds of thought into this.

They're proud capitalists, so it never bothered them. They aren't proud of their slopware though

I just did that..and it said....''it would seem you are referring to Microsoft'' So all of your hard work was not in vain. It is now self aware

Microsoft locked all the channels in that discord within the last few hours.

Before that, every channel was Microslop nonstop. Apparently even giving them feedback (in the feedback channel) about the product is no longer allowed. Microsoft cannot handle the fact they dish out slop.

And if they keep it up, Macroslop

"oh you want us to stop saying Microslop? how about we remind you about this in 3 days instead :)"

Then we're all in agreement, right?

I'm Germany, we called it Windoof

Which companies always are.

Look into how companies are actually managed. It's almost always an absolute dictatorship under the complete control of the owner and/or CEO, who gets the last word on everything and can fire anyone at will. Sometimes you'll have a board of directors or something acting as a check on the CEO's power and able to replace them if necessary ... but even then, that pretty much never actually happens. Their power is pretty much never actually checked.

Which is why I think "workplace democracy" should be the phrase leftists rally behind. The right has put a lot of work into poisoning and slandering the terms 'socialism' and 'communism', but 'workplace democracy' hasn't been attacked like that. And it sounds very good to workers. If you get to vote on what your country does, why shouldn't you get to vote on what your company does? After all, your company actually has a lot more effect on you and power over you in your day-to-day life. Why should some out-of-touch rich guy (probably a pedophile) get absolute control over the whole thing based on his fucked-up whims and vibes? Instead, we should have workplace democracy, where all employees get a say in how the company is run. (And then, without propagandized workers even realizing that they've done so, they've taken control of the means of production and enacted a form of socialism.)

They essentially ARE. You can also throw in all major broadcasting networks in that bucket as well. Everything is pro Israel and they are all trying to justify their genocide to their dumb fuck base.

Filled by morons and Russian bots?

In Spain there was a time when it was Hasechof and Microchof.

First: it's a brand, not a person. A brand can't be offended, because, as previously stated, it's NOT a person with feelings.

Second: People are just using a name because they are expressing their thoughts about what microslop has become. Doing what they did is basically telling the world they are 5 years old

Third: Look for a certain Streisand woman, name: Barbra.

Fourth: Please, don't be a shill. It's a corpo, you don't need to defend them, even you are on their payroll. They will survive without your defense.

I don't know if I was actively and consistently stealing people's data; shitting out broken software that workers will be forced to use and all but telling people to go fuck themselves when they complain. I'd be expecting a lot more then insults.

It's really not. A corporation is not a person.

A random person also does not have control over aspects of my life via lobbying and contracts I have no influence over. And if such a person existed (say billionaires) then it would absolutely be acceptable to go to their place and insult them. That's called protest.

This isn't people going and insulting innocent little Microsoft who hasn't done anything. Microsoft's behaviour is seen as unacceptable and people are speaking up.
