hiding accessibility features behind a pay wall is disgusting, because only people with disabilities have to pay for it. *edit if you’re downvoting, just let me know so I can block all of the ableists running around this community. **edit 2 - c’mon guys, why are you afraid to name yourselves?
nobody’s talking about the bare minimum of federal law dude. this is a discussion about how humans are supposed to treat each other. if the way you walk around life is “well, it’s legal to be an asshole in this situation so I’ll do it” then there’s no point in having this conversation because do not have the time to make you a better person
also your example absolutely wild. the purpose of an elevator is to get you from here to there. the purpose of Spotify is to help you listen to music. people with hearing issues are required to pay extra or do extra work to get the same experience as a perfectly abled person.

Just because someone has more money and can provide a better service doesn’t make them an asshole. The differently abled person could pay to use the other elevator, just like you and me, they just wouldn’t get to use the view, which is what the charge is for. How does this make the persons “experience” different if the only point is to move them? Anything else is an added bonus as you said.

You mean… exactly like how an elevator is to move people up and down and the added view is extra and not needed so both still have the same experience…?
Do you even know what point you’re trying to make here? Because as you’ve agreed, Spotify and elevators both are for one use, and the view, lyrics are an added bonus sometimes. But this doesn’t make someone an asshole for not spending the money on a better elevator. Fucking yeeesh……
lol, just because someone has money they “need” to be a better “person”? No, everyone should be held to the same standards.
It’s you who needs the education if you think segregating “people”to different standards due to their wealth is an even remotely smart idea….
And neither of us should be “teaching” each other, you’re a narcissist if you think that’s what you “need” to be doing in a conversation. Lmfao, this a new one.
if you really, really want, you can go in and edit the lyrics just like subtitles for television shows to say unintelligible dialogue. I’m arguing for an identical experience here, not extra perks that happen to cost the company nothing
I curse when I talk. I was assuming we were all adults here. did somebody block you and hurt your feelings?
Did you forget where you asked people who downvoted you to identify themselves so you could block them?
And despite the lyrics being unintelligible to me, they do exist, and when I went and looked them up (on the occasions Spotify didn’t have them), I said oh yeah, there you go.

Just because a building has a glass elevator with a view doesn’t mean all the other elevators are making an ADA violation……….
Some places have better features, unless ADA mandates something, they’re just doing something better, fuck them eh…?

as I said, I don’t have the time and energy to teach you how to be a better person. continuing capitalism or whatever it is

Holy shit. Do you own a Texaco or something? How much do you pay in taxes, dude?
They can get Spotify but can’t Google lyrics?
so you’re cool with people with disabilities having to do more labor than you to get the same thing? go fuck yourself
I listen to music and I have no idea what the lyricist is saying. I have no disability. Am I entitled to lyrics?
I downvoted one of your other comments so feel free to block instead of replying and cursing me out of something.

I curse too though, all the time.
I can see where the wording was confusing. I wanted down voters to identify themselves, so I could then identify the ableists.
I’m not sure what your point is with the first part. that doesn’t seem to counter anything that we’ve talked about
If I want to get free lyrics for free Spotify, I would have to do the same labor…
Also I downvoted you, so go ahead and plug your ears and block me, like a child.
Oh yes, if you want them.
Sure is nice having working ears, huh.
Sure is nice having free things, huh?
Oh, I see. I didn’t know providing a service you make money from, er, “for free,” means you get to do whatever you want.
Not sure why you think that, but okay.
Why I think companies should be required to uphold certain standards of service? What, have you never left a negative review?
they prolly won’t be the only one lmao
Are Google lyrics timed??
No, so what? Neither are all Spotify lyrics. They don’t even have lyrics for some songs.
Spotify lyrics are synced. You also click any text in the lyrics and it’ll jump to that part of the song.
Like I just said, they are not all synced, and they do not have lyrics for all songs.
Spotify lyrics aren’t synced? Then why the fuck are they charging for them?
