Could you refresh my memory, what was the policy change then that spurred this tweet?

Please link to the content, instead of posting a picture of it.

ESPECIALLY since it's also posted on the fediverse

Let's be real though, the pokemon card game always was awful, we were just too young to play it and evaluate it properly. The games are now shit, the franchise is in the toilet because of obsessing over merchandising.

I'm glad I have other good relics like my heroscape pieces or my pog collection.

Any company can be unprofitable if you have 100x the staff you need working on features that make the site worse or are scams

There are no quote posts. You can paste a link to the other person's post, but it is discouraged because we know where that leads.

"We" don't. Please elaborate.

Using a term associated with tragedy and human right abuses for ‘fun’ is a very interesting take.

Words can be used in multiple contexts. When somebody does well and I say "hey you're killing it" I'm not condoning murder. I don't cry for all car and plane crash victims when my computer game crashes. Life is better when you don't look for the most offensive way to interpret everything.

Maybe do your research before you sign up. I didn’t know what federation was before finding about Lemmy either, yet I already knew the basics when I made an account.

I did. But a ton of people are about to come to reddit from here, and despite how much we want them to, and how reasonable we think it is, most of them won't and don't care to do even 3 minutes of reading to understand how the basics work. This is just how large populations function.

Last thing and a pet peeve of mine: stop calling yourself a refugee.

No fun allowed, got it.

You're taking yourself way too seriously. Let people have their fun name, its not hurting anybody.

Of course the average user doesn't know what federation is, thats a complex topic. Be realistic, live and let live.

No different than when voat went down or when Reddit goes down eventually. The goal is though that by having no big central point of failure it's not as big of a deal. Not like you'd have to get used to a whole new kind of thing, just move to another instance.

What do you mean hypocrisy? This has been the public stated policy of republicans for decades.
