All the best; I did something like this before, although not on purpose, eating light and low fiber. When I finally pooped my poop had layers. Please don't make a habit out of it.

With nice stiff sleeves, I cut the deck into manageable sizes, then push the bottom corner of one stack into the middle of another stack until they're riffled with each other.

I do that until every stack is paired with another, then cut the stacks and mash them into an unpaired stack.

Keep doing this until all the stacks have cards from every other original stack in them, then get somebody else to stack the stacks in whatever order they want.

Sometimes I also just leave the deck in multiple stacks (as you mentioned, Ark Nova's deck is huge, TM as well, and with sleeves can be impossible to stack high) and let people take the top card from either stack. Obviously if the top card of the deck can be manipulated then you need a rule for what happens in that case.

defeats the entire purpose of the fediverse.

I dunno, this seems like really backward thinking to me.

It only "defeats" the point of the fediverse if the point of the fediverse is to be replacement-Reddit. The fediverse is unique from other such platforms in that it has the ability for instances to defederate. If anything, being able to defederate is the point of the Fediverse. If a bigger instance starts to cannibalise a smaller instance's communities and cultures, they only have a defense at all because of federalisation.

While I moved over to the fediverse on the principle of it all, I've never used an app myself. Only old.reddit on both PC and mobile. Just got too used to it before any app came up.

Yes, but if OP is thinking of deleting to snub Reddit, then it makes sense that they don't want the useful information to exist there.

In all honesty, that sounds like a win-win for everyone involved, especially given that server load is apparently a big problem for now. More spin offs that federate content is good for everyone, and it's interesting to see how this evolves.

You're not banned from looking at anything. Just go to their instance, abide by their signup rules and don't do the shit they defederated to avoid.

I think you're describihg "Rogue-lites", which are games where you can maintain some permanent progression even after you lose. "Rogue-likes", which are games that are like the game Rogue, are games where when you lose you just go back to the start with no progression at all, so you need to complete the game altogether.

The permanent progression rewards are meant to be a kind of crutch, which is where the "lite" comes from.

Why I'm making this distinction is that the original rogue-likes don't expect you to fail at all - or rather, they do, but there's no expectation of needing to fail to progress.
