I'm actually really excited for this - I seem to be in a relatively small section of gamers but I absolutely love games like Sonic Mania, Sonic CD, Freedom Planet etc.
This'll probably be a day one purchase for me honestly.
The branding for kbin is perfect for capturing the reddit migrators. The biggest friction point for the Fediverse is choosing an instance. If I want to join Lemmy, googling Lemmy takes me to a landing page with no join button, telling me to go to these other sites. Some of these sites even actively discourage signups, creating...
My only concern is so far I haven't seen quite the same level of activity that I've seen on Lemmy, but I'm optimistic this could change, especially if some existing subreddits decide to start pointing users here...
Although I would like to NSFW content in my timeline, I think its better to have them blurred by default and only visible if I click on it. And any such post from NSFW subreddits should also be blurred by default. Saying this because I noticed a post from a NSFW subreddit in the front-page and it was displayed without any...
As a developer, wholeheartedly agreed that this is the best way to do it.
Only thing I would say is I can imagine there's users who would be happy to say, have spoilers visible everywhere, but not NSFW content. There still needs to be some distinction.
Indeed. I think also people are failing to realise that there's more to this than just MS acquiring Activision / Blizzard in and of itself, but rather, what it says for the industry in general and Microsoft's continued acquisition of other game studios. What happens when all of the major studios are Microsoft-owned?
I’ve been using fediverse stuff (Mastodon and, most recently, Calckey – I’m just going to use “Mastodon” as shorthand here, purists can bite me) for over a year now, a…
Indeed - I think people seem to have this ill-conceived notion that Twitter has to fail for Mastodon to succeed.
From my perspective, both are doing just fine. Mastodon has developed a community with, in my opinion, much higher quality discussion, and well, Twitter can keep being twitter.
That said, what I do think helps here is that Kbin has a much lower barrier to entry. I find it much easier to sign up on here than trying to determine which Mastodon instance to use and I think that helps tremendously.
