I love hearing about unique takes on game mechanics. Someone recently convinced me that limited inventories are kind of abused currently and that unlimited inventory systems would give more player choices.
Having well placed saved points and QOL features is absolutely amazing. I'm not interested in spending 10-15m running back / repeating myself just because the save progression system is rubbish. A lot more developers are more respectful of your time in that regard so it's a great improvement

All of the porn on pornhub now is from verified sources since they forced mindgeek to purge all of their unverified content (to keep them as payment processors)
Nothing wrong with taking money from porn now that they strong armed pornhub into doing what it wanted
Tell her "I'm not interested in hearing your opinion or your attitude" next time she wants to be a rude bitch. At some point you need to have a spine and stand up to these people. These people aren't managers and you don't owe them explanations / justifications
I had an account on lemmy.one and now the instance has been down for a day or two so I made this new account. I also heard other small instances are dead or disappeared....
I'm pretty happy with kbin.social. It's a nice place, with several devs actively looking at making the experience better, it just takes a while being an open source project and all
Since I’ve been on Lemmy, I don’t know what my use is for Mastodon anymore. It’s dead on there anyway. I don’t have anyone to talk to and nobody responds to my posts.
I've found squabbles pretty good for tweet style content. There seems to be a pretty engaged audience who can look at a short sentence or photo and happily engage with a comment
It's shocking. Each update has a dogshit update note such as "improving performance" or "updating stability", none of that explains the reason for the update. So I've got little hope developers will in good faith explain the reasons why they need microphone, call history or location for their apps to run
Since Day One (spez’ fuckup) I have been trying to use and like lemmy but it just doesn’t work right at all. Like as in never did. Communities disappear randomly, posts don’t load, submissions have no comments, you name it. At this point I am considering going back to reddit just like everyone else I know that used to care...
The Kbin enchantment sweet is great. The developer who worked on it is actively in the Matrix chat. We're working on getting a heap of those improvements baked into the platform, but being an open source protect it takes a while to get things through
Yeah the comment toggling, sidebar with your magazines and a few other parts are coming up kbin as native features, it just takes a while to get them tested + pushed out for release. There's a heap of great stuff coming
The overall sentiment about the lack of comments feels pretty fair. One of the best parts of Reddit was the volume. While you don't really need to have 3000 comments on a post to make it feel engaging, having 300 I feel is better than the 5 or 6 I've often seen.
It's still an early platform so I'm hoping with time we get dozens of replies on most posts
Yeah the logout issue is pretty annoying. I've got a feeling it's got to do with the CSRF token that's on all the forms (like the upvote / downvote arrows) that if you sit idle probably don't match when you submit. Probably something we need to have a hard look into to fix up
Was really keen on tildes for a moment when we were going through the exodus stage with Reddit. I wasn't keen on the closed invite system.
I get they want to keep their own community and that's fine, but it's a shame they wanted to limit their growth in a time when people were looking for alternatives
It looks like they have their own "vibe" and rigorously enforce it in their own community. That's fine, it's their service after all. Feels a bit strange to turn away potential new users when people are looking for viable alternatives
San Francisco has opened a complaint and launched an investigation of a giant “X” sign that cropped up Friday on top of the downtown headquarters of the social media platform formerly known as Twitter
If you long press on the home screen and select "wallpapers and style" you should get this UI where you can select themed icons. From memory it's an Android 13 specific option.
