So don’t?

Ha! Get rekt, Meta.

… OK, but seriously, what the fuck is it? Marketingspeke is cool (apparently), I get it, but what does it literally do?

I’ve been mildly curious about RDR2. It’s been on sale a couple times, but I still feel… icky about the idea of giving Take2 any money.

Lee-bruh. I don’t really see a problem.

This is on .ml, so I’m sure we’ll see some of it shortly. Or this post disappears out of a window.

I’m seeing a lot of uncited claims. If these are just conjecture or opinion you could be clearer on it. If they’re not, citing sources is probably a good idea.

I think the idea of having instances own communities is fundamentally flawed. Discoverability is one of many ways that fucks things up.

Probably not. But from their POV it’s at least a competitor, albeit an insignificant one, and pushing too hard to “let people know” is… pretty much spam. They’re used to handling spam and have mechanisms in place (fewer now, though. snort.)

yadda yadda didn’t read :)

Kek.

I can virtually guarantee a lot of people here not only can imagine it, but use CLI applications heavily every day.

Was it really? How?

They are heavy-handed but are upfront about that fact, and their reason for it - wanting a safe space, since a lot of people go out of their way to make the rest of the internet as unwelcoming as they can. If that’s not acceptable to you, you’re just not in the target audience. If it’s any sort of threat to the fediverse I am really not seeing how. If they want to be a bubble and deal with the “recruitment” issues that causes on an already miniscule platform, they absolutely can.

Reputation-wise for Lemmy instances and the FV in general, I would think we have significantly larger issues.

Thanks, and you too. :)

Being a jerk is extremely subjective - someone could brand you much worse than that just from a polite disagreement from your side, that they don’t want to deal with. Aside from anything else, this is a highly “techie-y” space with a ton of strongly held opinions and ideals, and misunderstandings when communicating/discussing them happen. A lot. It will keep happening. People will look like asses without necessarily doing so intentionally.

Now, outright trolling, spamming, shitting on discussions with obvious bad faith participation, consistently derailing unrelated threads with one’s hobby horse, obvious flamebaiting and so on… great. Reporting and removing more of that should be a priority everywhere.

Banning politics from any non-political community that can be persuaded to do so also sounds like a great idea on general principle. Politics is poison (particularly what passes for it in the US), and it would be polite to not shove it down the entire fediverse’s throat. Every geographical sub is politics, every news sub is politics, there are dedicated politics and politicalmemes communities, and still it’s fucking everywhere else also. Asklemmy and NoStupidQuestions are full of thinly veiled soapboxing (which leads to a lot of awfully stupid questions). People who want to JAQ off to politics can easily make their own community for that (that way, the rest of us can block it, as intended), or else keeping it in their pants would’ve been kinda polite, idk. Seems odd to insist on posting political stuff everywhere.

Yeah. The pog/-champ emotes were nice somehow, too bad the guy’s a dipshit.

It’s not just a 4chan thing, it’s used innocuously in gaming all the time.

I’m sure it does to you.
