At the very least, all their best officers will get transferred to space force. There isn't really any direct earthly parellel to space warfare and logistics, but naval warfare and logistics is as close as it gets

You're not wrong, but the fact is that photorealistic graphics sells games. Everytime a AAA title releases gameplay footage prior to release, the graphics fidelity is always one of the most talked about things. Hell, there have been a lot of games where the majority of the hype has been around the graphics quality.

I'm not saying this is a good thing, quite the opposite, but the fact is that game studios are primarily interested in building a game that makes money (because that's how capitalism works), and having the best graphics is a proven way to boost sales. The only way it's going to stop is for people to stop basing their game purchasing decisions on graphics and start basing them on gameplay. But for casual gamers, that seems highly unlikely

Has kbin added the ability to follow hashtags yet? That's pretty much the only feature that I need to be able/willing to fully migrate my lemmy/mastadon

One day - social media will break up NSFW tags into actual useful warning tags - so we can mute porn without blocking movie spoilers or troubling news articles and shit like that

Only posts though - not comments. Frankly i find that the posts from problem instances are rarely as bad as their comments

The guy who wrote the lemmy software is the same guy who runs lemmygrad. All of lemmy is “tankie bullshit”. I suggest you go back to reddit to be safe from us.

TIL that open source software is inextricably tied to it's creators political beliefs..

Sorry bud, but despite tankies on this site being really fucking loud and argumentative, you're drastically outnumbered by newer members who have no relation to lemmygrad or other tanky instances.

No fediverse social media site "belongs" to it's creator or their beliefs, that's literally the whole point. If you want a site where it's creators are able to enforce their beliefs on their users, maybe you should go back to traditional social media

Ugh - that's really frustrating especially since they must know this isn't what everyone actually wants. Let us have personal defederation - it would solve the whole defederation controversy in one stroke. There would no longer be any reason for instances to make such huge decisions on behalf of all it's users, and individuals can choose to disengage with toxic communities on their own

Fr, you're only holding yourself back by choosing one setting and sticking to it

Yup, people would be growing beans in their backyard like weed plants, and people would be learning to roast their own shit lol

Both are a spectrum that everyone is on, and pretty much no one is all the way at the "not at all" side of either lol

I mean yeah, if you make it illegal for dumb people to overpay for stupid shit, half the global economy would collapse overnight

I’m just asking, aren’t there better suited communities?

And we're just answering - nope, this one is perfectly well suited - you can always block OP if you really can't stand seeing this post on your timeline

It isn't a meme.

It objectively is - it's a slightly different take on the "The What" meme

Whether you think the meme is funny is a different matter - but I don't see how you could argue it's "not a meme".
