Yes, it’s only on the Play Date, which is a $200 console aimed at kids. The gimmick is you can download a bunch of exclusive games for free, but its still a very low power console with one gimmick (the crank) which costs as much as a switch lite.

I haven't been able to create a community using the create community page. Is it bugged, or do we have to request the community to be made somewhere?...
Good to know. I've been going nuts trying to make a community on and off for like a week and it just won't go through when I press the button, I get stuck watching the spinning circle. I tried a couple different devices/browsers too. Hopefully it clears up on its own.
I just want to append that a "rampantly fascist troll farm" would be something like The Stormfront, which hosts literal neo-nazis, or possibly 4chan's /pol/ forum, where Jewish conspiracies are blamed for all the world's ills and... only maybe 1/2 to 2/3 of the users are saying that ironically. These are real websites with real people, and if you are used to Reddit as your main social media, I would urge you to take a look just once and get an example of what actual hate speech looks like. That is, illegal in the UK, or could be used as evidence to increase the sentence in conjunction with a guilty verdict for violent crime in the US. Trumptard/trans-skeptic is no the same as rampantly fascist.
I only ask to reserve the use of the word for two reasons. One, the real thing is out there and we shouldn't forget it. Two, accusing someone of attempting a fascist takeover of the government which would end democracy... is a pretty good excuse to take over the government and end democracy. It's the same sort of thing as saying someone's words are "violent" towards you in an attempt to justify (real) violence towards them.
Nay BUT if they're really annoying about it, then spamming rules could apply.
I don't think it really serves open discussion to say "this is a banned topic". I think you could reasonably make a rule that repeatedly begging admins for action/features in general is a no-no though.
I'm also very against deferederation. Not unless we are having problems with serious illegal content on some instance, or like ACTUAL straight up neo nazis. I have no respect for people who say stuff like "exploding heads is clearly a FASCIST server" and then post a meme about Biden being bad as proof lmao.
Is this supposed to be for admin reports only, or mod reports? I'd be nervous about community outsiders doing moderation. If its admin only then theres less wiggle room with rules and it is potentially more appeal-able. I still think the potential for crappy calls is pretty high.
My primary argument is that they post hateful content and covid conspiracies and it is irresponsible to platform this by including it in our federation. Secondly we already got rid of lemmygrad. Thirdly, there's little to be lost in the defederation given the type of stuff being posted over there. Do as thou wilt...
When I hit "Create" I'll get the "Loading" swirl and that's it. As if the site isn't responding. Is this happening for anyone else, and how do I remedy?
I have a better success rate on desktop than on mobile. I have had a lot of posts actually fail to go through, the spinning circle is not merely a UI bug.
Crazy to think that this stuff can potentially end up tied to your identity and used for advertising, or even (in theory) other purposes like credit worthiness or a job suitability assessment....
Yeah. I'm not necessarily asking how to do this for myself, but if this would be in-demand as a new feature, because I think i see some problems it could solve. I don't want to return to Reddit's system where the front page is heavily curated by admins but i think this could be less of a culture shock for some people.
Wew, I'm glad we didn't lose our chance at another good game out of this. I just hope they've retained their key staff. Sometimes when we see a disaster like this come out of EG Bioware, I think its because the name is the only thing left of the original game dev company.
Is anyone else having trouble posting? I've had a lot of times when posts/comments fail to go through ("post" button stays as a spinning circle). Sometimes I can get it after a couple times, but I've been stubbornly trying to reply to one comment in c/games all day with no success, despite posting a thread there and making some other posts.
Could just play the OG version too. PC version needs a couple tweaks to run well, but it will cost you peanuts. Whether it's a better or worse experience than the remake is arguable.
