The way Legendaries were being treated was definitly a mining canary.
SPOOSER
I absolutely love VVVVVV and its soundtrack. I still haven't decided if it's stockholme syndrome or not though, that game was tough as hell.
The only way that I think scraping bots are helpful would be for purely archivale purposes. I wish someone would create an Instance that scrapes old Reddit posts and information and posts that information solely on that instance. Scraping new content and posting it here to Lemmy is not even using Lemmy, we've just gone back to Reddit at that point.
I don't think this is a highly controversial opinion. Most people would agree that most of the old systems were better. However, the fanbase has pretty much given in on the comparative quality of the games as a whole. The way legendaries are handled is a symptom of the greater flaws of the lack of soul in the new games.
I did that and it confused the hell out of me, half of my instances communities were empty all of a sudden
Seems like it, only old posts dont dissapear into the void, they stick around forever.
Your typo calling Elon melon is the cherry on top of this discussion
That was my main reason for posting this question, to see if I'm alone in this site with just a bunch of bots posting. All these responses have given me hope!
The amount of responses in this post have been extremely reassuring. I honestly just felt like I was using the site alone with a bunch of bots lol
I appreciate the sorting suggestion! I'll try that. I understand that Lemmy isn't as big as Reddit, but I swear there are more people than my feed is leading me to believe.
Thanks, I'll keep trying to do my part to grow my favorite communities on Lemmy.
Your ~~rant~~ post is ill-placed, because I'm trying to do that. I've already posted and commented multiple posts in communities I enjoy trying to garner attention and content. But i'm also a busy person who's trying to live with a family, children, and a budding carreer. I understand I need to be a part of the community and I am doing more now than I ever have on Reddit.
EDIT: I also wanted to add that this post is not about me complaining about a lack of content, it was a misunderstanding of the sorting algorithm. After posting this, I got lots of very helpful advice to help me use Lemmy's sorting better and my enjoyment of Lemmy has improved immensly to the point of where my experience on Lemmy is no longer lame.
EDIT 2: I must have misread your post because it was not condesending, but more motivating. I appreciate the sentiment and redact the condesending part, but stand by the rest of what I've said. I deleted the entire second paragraph because I was defensive and wrong in its entirety. I appreciate the sentiment while affirming I am trying to contribute more while my life is still very busy. I apologize for getting defensive.
