I said that they won't mess with the GPOs.

I doubt that MS switched anyone's search engine purposefully. But that's more likely than them messing with the GPOs.

Them switching search engine hasn't ever happened to me at least.

What would you bet that it will never happen?

10 EUR that it won't happen in at least 10 years. Longer than that I won't make a bet for anything.

I'd honestly take that. Uh, is there a remind function? If I assume this will be here and I'll have an account in ten years?

Uh, is there a remind function?

Not that I know of.

I'm honestly quite doubtful that Lemmy will be a thing in 10 years or even 5 years. I hope so, but yeah.

A problem with Lemmy is that individual instances are much much more likely to shut down than an entire platform.
