I mean, for one, that’s the only metric you chose to measure games by, so I’m not sure what else you would expect. Should we reply as if you used an entirely unmentioned metric?

Second, I specifically mentioned “many”, not you in particular. That’s not strawmaning, that’s talking about a general trend.

They would still control it more than they did in Netflix, so it’s still upside in their eyes.

I pitty the poor, volunteer admins facing clueless users dealing with downtime. “You said it’d only be an hour! WHAT’S GOING ON!?!?”

Nah. What’s weird is you thinking everyone should follow your strict rules about national segregation online.

If it’s such a problem for you, instead of begging everyone else to fit your narrow world view, go find an instance that works better for you. Or, when you don’t because that’s ridiculous, make your own and block it off from everyone else not following your rules. Then you might be happy.

That was my thought. Impossible to say in just a few months, of course, but here’s hoping it’s legit!

I got the Gulikit KingKong 2 Pro a little while ago for the hall-effect joysticks and am liking it so far. Haven’t used it a bunch with my Deck, but when I did, it worked well. It’s $60, though, so maybe too pricey.

I hate that this meme always implies Trump handed that dude something smart when it was just absolute bullshit.

Everyone has “custom” pronouns. Some just match possible preconceived notions about them.

I find your hyperbolic outrage over nothing “distasteful” and “disrespectful”. Go to another instance if you feel so strongly instead of trying to rile up some sort of revolt against the admins as if that would accomplish anything.

You’re linking your own post about assuming what the admins in .world have done as if it’s definitive proof. After a definitive statement is made one way or the other, then you can start freaking out. Until then, just stop it with the conspiratorial garbage.

You tried, little bot.

Lol, good troll account. Here’s your downvote.

Far Cry 3 was so frustratingly dumb and yet so popular. The gameplay was fine, but everyone was blowing up about the stupid ass sub-villain with his Philosophy 101 ”zingers" in “White, suburban YA saves ‘savages’ from themselves with horrendous war crimes” the game. It was really irritating.

Turns out there’s this: https://fedipact.online/

As others have stated, it’s very little to do with being “prudes” and much more with being tired of horny anonymous posters just being horny. If it were something informative, that’s a whole other thing.

Of either Threads instances or instances that defederate Threads, not that I know of, but I expect it’ll be a thing in short time.

Lemmy doesn’t need to compete. Hell, it can’t compete. It’s an open-source platform developed basically as volunteer work. Meta (and Threads) has millions of dollars and massive teams behind it.

Thankfully, we don’t need Meta. We just need to do what we can to resist. The best we can hope for and what we should aim for is to limit the impact/damage Threads will have on our segment of the Fed. How to do that, I’m not sure exactly, but my first instinct is to block off anything corporate. Any interaction at all is basically just asking monied interests to take over.

Right now? Have a Lemmy account on an instance that defederates anything Threads.

There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.

Fwiw, the devs seem quite open to (even directly requesting) people coding features they want and having them added into the main code in future versions. So if anyone is able and willing to make a working version of that for Lemmy, it could be added quite soon, really.

It’s not a suggestion. It’s what they’re doing right now.
