I miss power-up racers that weren’t just Mariokart clones, like NASCAR Rumble and that.

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.
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.
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 think it was the right call overall, but I wish they’d started with C++ from the get-go. The game would probably be out by now and they could be working on things like a mobile port while the long-content starved Minecraft community would have something brand-spanking new to check out and explore.
But things happen, I’m just excited to see the fruits of their labor in the future.
Tbh I usually just use it to play games on a bigger screen with a Bluetooth controller when I’m bored, Nintendo Switch style. There are plenty of console-style mobile games + streaming services that can make it a pretty good time killer if I’m the only one in a waiting room or something.
Perhaps block the “RedditMigration” magazine if you’re not interested in seeing it. It’s not like this place was founded out of politeness.
That’s what I’m hoping for. I don’t want a bunch of accounts depending on what device I’m using, I want to have one account on a platform that I like and have good interfaces for using it.
That’s why I left reddit, they removed my ability to do that by killing Boost.
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.”
I didn’t even think, I just used the same as my reddit one.
Which is fine, I have 99 on everything else, being just gk would be weird.
That’s a pleasant compliment lol
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.
