Relax. It’s a bit slower than Reddit, which I think is a good thing. Some niche communities have less posts but you get more genuine replies. After 2 weeks on here I stopped frequenting Reddit as much as I did. I go there once a week maybe to check on some niche subs and I don’t miss the rest.

E: Also use Summit for Lemmy on Android it works really well!

Why?

You’re completely right, I thought this post was about personalised pricing like different prices depending on location and data about customers. My bad.

All those place are culturally autistic (excluding Spain, where I thought public toilets are free if not widely avialable?) GDP is not the only measure of a place’s worth.

So what when grocery stores do it? You grow your own potatoes too?

I don’t think most people know enough about convenience pricing to be outraged about it.

The whole system of personalised pricing is designed to be unnoticeable to the general public or even make you think you’re paying less.

On a sidenote I don’t like the attitude of other commentators saying it’s just for Starbucks so it doesn’t matter to me, I make my coffee at home. Nothing is stoppin the system of convenience pricing to infect everything that isn’t Starbucks and everyone needs to buy groceries.

E: I misunderstood the OP, I thought he was talking about surveillance pricing/ personalised pricing which is something else entirely. Paying more because you want your drink at 3 in the morning or delivered to you or from a smaller store near you is normal and makes sense to me.
