    Just checked it out and so far I don't really mind it. I don't play solitaire that much at all, I admit, but if I'm bored and want to fire up a game, there's no ads on the actual card screen, only the main menu. In any case, with these free Windows 10 upgrades Microsoft has already made us the products...

    When I was very young I ate a sandwich every single school day. Come heat or cold, hail or shine... who am I kidding, it's Aus, so constant warm floppy sandwiches. Getting sick of the repetition, I became bold and skipped lunch in favour of tossing a sandwich or two into the overgrown end of the backyard (why not bin it? Well, that would be sensible, see). I would thus come across them a few weeks later, moldering away. I was also a precocious reader/nerd who really enjoyed the history picture books I came across in the library. So the mold to me looked darkened, almost black, and spotty. Like... like bubonic pustules. Like the Black Death sinisterly spawning in my sandwiches!

    No, seriously, I was pretty freaked out. Even gave me nightmares for a bit. I eventually decided that I had to do the right thing, so I think I disposed of it into a double tied plastic bag while wearing three layers of clothing, rubber gloves (washed down with liquid soap afterwards), and a bandanna tied over most of my face. I soon learnt better afterwards, but for that very brief time of my youth, it was a fearful time...

    Friendliness is an essential part of snapzu's core being and I don't want that to disappear just so one can be free to bully others or make remarks that look down upon race, gender, sexuality or anything else like that.

    I appreciate that there are like-minded people on Snapzu, so that even though Snapzu as a site is permissive of alternate ideologies, as a community Snapzu doesn't have to welcome or tolerate bigotry.

    There's a massive 'freedom of speech' argument going on at Reddit right now. Right now, all these arguments translate to me as 'free speech for bigots', or even 'safe spaces for bigots'. Meanwhile the vulnerable have to self-censor themselves either out of caution or just out of desire to not have to put up with shit, including tolerating and 'educating' racists on the error of their ways.

    In the end, the funny thing to me is that Reddit as a whole, by their actions, are encouraging the bigots to speak their minds and disseminate their ideas, whereas the targets of their vitriol just have to put up and shut up. All in the name of free speech and tolerance on a privately owned website.

    Edit: Sorry for the rant OP. Welcome to the website. :)

    Downton Abbey. Despite all the popular reviews for it, I had been put off watching it because it seemed soapy and anachronistic, and it's all true... but it's still very enjoyable.
