People are shitting on this but have no problem with r/interestingasfuck and r/perfectlycutscreams doing the exact same thing

Some subreddits managed to do it when the topic was very specific and the mods were dedicated. I'm thinking of r/AskHistorians and r/Askphilosophy

Both options are non-ideal. Some mods are on a power trip and public opinion can vary wildly depending on the thread/community

Overwatch 2 basically reminded me that there are single player games that are fully paid for one time and that range from as relaxing--intense as you're in the mood for. Now I'm playing Stardew valley and Slay the spire while I'm watching TV and movies in my downtime

Personally I can't stand the gearing up phase of BR. So boring to have to find weapons every time only to get taken out by some guy more skilled than you

Using Lemmy seems better in a mobile browser than in the app. But maybe that's just me

They're really pulling a No Man's Sky here. I hope the game continues to see development

Depends on whether Reddit deletes NSFW content once they go public

Three platforms is not a lot overall.

We all know what happened to Digg and Tumblr. Imgur just deleted their NSFW content. Youtube has been going downhill for a while now. It feels like we're seeing the natural life-cycle of social media companies before our eyes.

Facebook dies due to privacy concerns and misinformation. Twitter under threat because Elon. Imgur just deleted their NSFW content. Reddit with its API pricing. Twitch executives also getting greedy. Youtube has been going down for years.

It feels like we're seeing the natural life-cycle of social media companies in real time.

This is really fun. Kinda like 21 questions, but infinite questions.

I played Overwatch daily for about 5 years, but Blizzard had to go and fuck that up
