Stop Using Superapps

STOP USING SUPERAPPS • THE INTERNET WAS SUPPOSED TO BE "OWNED" BY ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS • YEARS OF JAVASCRIPT yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND FOR A "SMART" WEB BROWSER • Wanted an app that could do anything for a laugh anyway?: It's called a "HEX EDITOR" • "Yes please X me fifty currency. Please get an X to the bar" —Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what talentless rich white boys whose mothers call off bouts of fisticuffs with their competitors have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the narcissistic supply & engagement we feed them (This is a REAL APP, purchased by REAL Emerald Mine heirs): X x.com ??? ??????? ???????????? "Hello I would like to 🟩 a meal please" THEY HAVE PLAYED US FOR ABSOLUTE FOOLS

The meme attacks superapps and the wealthy tech culture behind them, presenting absurd examples of supposedly useful software and mocking the idea that every service should be combined into one platform. It shows logos associated with X and a Tesla-like car, followed by a censored-looking food-ordering sentence, implying that users have been manipulated into treating powerful companies as essential everyday utilities. The punchline is the exaggerated claim that these companies have “played us for absolute fools.”
