I don’t wanna be mean to the guy who effectively just lost his job but like, come on bro. Reddit wasn’t exactly hiding their negative intentions, outright lies, and lack of respect.

Except they have outright removed a bunch. All but two of the r/TIHI mods were purged, as an example.

It wasn’t broken as hell after like two weeks of development when the critical glitches like save corruption were getting fixed. As someone who didn’t overhype the game for a decade and only bought it because I knew everyone else was going to, I had a great time. It was just cool to hate the game up until the anime dropped and everyone suddenly forgot they hated it.

It’s not gonna extinguish the fediverse in the same way nobody leaving reddit joined Mastodon as a replacement. They’re technically compatible, but these are entirely different styles of sites we’re talking about. Lemmy and Kbin are gonna keep on trucking regardless of what happens to the Twitter-likes.

But they’re definitely going to try and kill Mastodon/similar through social engineering. Everybody’s favorite content creators, organizations, and brands will be on Threads, not Mastodon, and when they lock it down we’ll lose access to them and end up needing a Threads account. I don’t understand why anyone trusts this company won’t try to secure market dominance and then monopolize it. The guy says “we’ll just be right back where we are now,” but this could easily decrease the Mastodon population by pulling away anyone who doesn’t care about federation or open source and just wanted a decent Twitter alternative.

Boost is still up at the moment but Boost for Lemmy is already up for pre-registration, so I don’t think it’s a hard cutoff or anything.

You don’t have to make excuses for an independent company that willingly took on a project and was in no way coerced into it.

I mean, the answer kinda just has to be something like Call of Duty to make sense. Think about how much evolution that series has gone through over the years, and how many components there are between campaign, multiplayer, Zombies, spec ops, battle royale, and most recently DMZ. It’s probably the most variety you’d get from just one franchise.

Votes are public here, as are moderator actions, so we can actually see everything going on, including empty accounts only used to bot upvote stuff. In addition, not every platform works the same way. Some have upvotes and downvotes, some only have upvotes, some are wonky like kbin where upvotes don’t count toward reputation but boosts do, etc. An upvote isn’t just an upvote like it is on reddit. They also can’t “enshittify” something that users can self-host their own instances of to interact.

Edit: Also, we’re in the early stages right now, reddit has a decade lead.

The only things Annapurna has made up until now have been exclusivity deals. This is their first game that’s actually theirs.

If anything, the real laughing is all of the stuff we’ve been doing to fuck with reddit anyway. Destroying subs, burning posts and comments, deleting accounts.

Leaving.

I wouldn’t be so hopeful, Twitch has pretty much remained unbeaten and the only “ad block” solution I’ve found still gives a 30 second interruption of the stream, it just doesn’t show the ad anymore. It’s why I don’t use the site anymore, even with Twitch Turbo as an option these days.

In essence, yes. These blockchain games exist for two reasons:

1. They want “play to earn” gameplay where people are grinding to get items of real value to sell, like a job.
2. They want it on everything, not just Steam where the community market already exists.

Problem is nobody likes or wants NFTs.

I feel as if this is the first real sign that this shit has had an impact. Minecraft isn’t a small community by any means, and them ditching the huge subreddit over this is shocking.

There are several pages in this thread so these might’ve been mentioned already, but

Mirror’s Edge, the original.

Tomb Raider (2013) and up

If you enjoy the Ubisoft formula, Far Cry 6

Saints Row 2 and up

Mass Effect franchise before Andromeda

Gonna wait a bit because I wanna make sure there aren’t any crazy unforeseen side effects on humans, but this is a tremendous step forward for several environmental and ecological problems and I’m ready for a minimal-kill future.

Do Heelys count as wheeled devices? They’re shoes.

I mean the funny thing to me is that this guy is just an idiot. This is r/piracy we’re talking about, they’re pirates. A decentralized and low-key forum like this is exactly where they should want to be, not on one of the world’s five biggest websites just posting freely on main.

See, it’s all this stuff that really makes the

Such slander doesn’t deserve any response

statement feel very Steve Huffman to me. It very clearly does deserve a response because the problem doesn’t end with just saying “nope lol that’s not us” and people like me have to go digging through all this bullshit just to figure out the facts: they believe anti-China news and similar is U.S./media propaganda and will moderate opposing viewpoints with “Orientalism” bans and similar. That’s not a hard statement to type, and if this viewpoint is in good faith then I struggle to see why they refuse to just say that and consistently resort to “if you don’t like our moderation policy feel free to join/start a different instance!” without ever actually clarifying the moderation policy. Even lemmygrad pretty much says outright “if you like capitalism, fuck off.”
