i’m over 40 and am still confounded by this. brand loyalty always struck me as the dumbest possible behavior from people whose only value to the brand is in their wallet. i guess it’s easy to believe the company really truly cares about you when that’s what they pretend to do
There are very few of us, and it’s probably a DNA/brain wiring thing. Kinda like me looking at republican as if they are aliens because they can watch trump and think what he’s saying is good, and totally not like a dictator such as hitler.
right. the party of “individual liberty” and “small government” who also wants the government to mandate what gender you’re allowed to bump uglies with and outlaw porn
You guys are sniffing your own farts so hard you forgot that it sounds stupid when you say a company is pretending when they paid for a 3rd party to verify them with cold hard cash.
Same. But if the product is good I will be loyal until then. Small example, this live music streaming app I have, Nugs, has allowed me to renew yearly at the same promo price as I initially signed up. All they do is add more and more concerts to it.
Sidenote, I don’t think I’ve ever seen that many downvotes on Lemmy lol. I don’t think the comment was that bad.

You’re getting downvoted because you’re conflating contrarianism with critical thinking, and people have already pointed out your mistaken logic.
It has nothing to do with brand loyalty. You’re just falling into the other side of the “herd mentality” coin.
one hilarious thing i’ve learned is that any particular brand’s fanbois hate being called fanbois LOL
Totally. Whenever I find a product I like, I always abandon it as soon as I can.
you do you. but i abandon brands the instant they start enshittification. which they ALWAYS DO.

fanbois have a tendency to get butthurt and talk about “logic” if you poopooh their favorite brand names.
bring on the downvotes. they have a ways to go to catch up to the upvotes on my comment shitting on republicans
