I don't wanna be mean to the guy who effectively just lost his job but like, come on bro. Reddit wasn't exactly hiding their negative intentions, outright lies, and lack of respect.

I miss power-up racers that weren't just Mariokart clones, like NASCAR Rumble and that.

Except they have outright removed a bunch. All but two of the r/TIHI mods were purged, as an example.

Literally why

They already have Truth Social and Twitter.

It wasn't broken as hell after like two weeks of development when the critical glitches like save corruption were getting fixed. As someone who didn't overhype the game for a decade and only bought it because I knew everyone else was going to, I had a great time. It was just cool to hate the game up until the anime dropped and everyone suddenly forgot they hated it.

It's not gonna extinguish the fediverse in the same way nobody leaving reddit joined Mastodon as a replacement. They're technically compatible, but these are entirely different styles of sites we're talking about. Lemmy and Kbin are gonna keep on trucking regardless of what happens to the Twitter-likes.

But they're definitely going to try and kill Mastodon/similar through social engineering. Everybody's favorite content creators, organizations, and brands will be on Threads, not Mastodon, and when they lock it down we'll lose access to them and end up needing a Threads account. I don't understand why anyone trusts this company won't try to secure market dominance and then monopolize it. The guy says "we'll just be right back where we are now," but this could easily decrease the Mastodon population by pulling away anyone who doesn't care about federation or open source and just wanted a decent Twitter alternative.

I mean, the answer kinda just has to be something like Call of Duty to make sense. Think about how much evolution that series has gone through over the years, and how many components there are between campaign, multiplayer, Zombies, spec ops, battle royale, and most recently DMZ. It's probably the most variety you'd get from just one franchise.

Votes are public here, as are moderator actions, so we can actually see everything going on, including empty accounts only used to bot upvote stuff. In addition, not every platform works the same way. Some have upvotes and downvotes, some only have upvotes, some are wonky like kbin where upvotes don't count toward reputation but boosts do, etc. An upvote isn't just an upvote like it is on reddit. They also can't "enshittify" something that users can self-host their own instances of to interact.

Edit: Also, we're in the early stages right now, reddit has a decade lead.

Kinda already is. Everyone over here is so much more polite than on reddit, which implies reddit has lost a chunk of the community that doesn't suck.

If anything, the real laughing is all of the stuff we've been doing to fuck with reddit anyway. Destroying subs, burning posts and comments, deleting accounts.

Leaving.

Sriracha is sweeter and has more garlic flavor.

Just to clarify, which sriracha is this? That sounds pretty good and if it's the growers' one I'd like to pick up a bottle.

I wouldn't be so hopeful, Twitch has pretty much remained unbeaten and the only "ad block" solution I've found still gives a 30 second interruption of the stream, it just doesn't show the ad anymore. It's why I don't use the site anymore, even with Twitch Turbo as an option these days.

In essence, yes. These blockchain games exist for two reasons:

1. They want "play to earn" gameplay where people are grinding to get items of real value to sell, like a job.
2. They want it on everything, not just Steam where the community market already exists.

Problem is nobody likes or wants NFTs.

I feel as if this is the first real sign that this shit has had an impact. Minecraft isn't a small community by any means, and them ditching the huge subreddit over this is shocking.

I think it was the right call overall, but I wish they'd started with C++ from the get-go. The game would probably be out by now and they could be working on things like a mobile port while the long-content starved Minecraft community would have something brand-spanking new to check out and explore.

But things happen, I'm just excited to see the fruits of their labor in the future.

Tbh I usually just use it to play games on a bigger screen with a Bluetooth controller when I'm bored, Nintendo Switch style. There are plenty of console-style mobile games + streaming services that can make it a pretty good time killer if I'm the only one in a waiting room or something.

Perhaps block the "RedditMigration" magazine if you're not interested in seeing it. It's not like this place was founded out of politeness.

Look at how butthurt everyone in this thread is over a joke name and bringing perceived politics into it where there is none. This was all started by one game reviewer making fun of people who took PC gaming too seriously and then the subreddit name leaning into the joke. That's it, that's the story. If you want to start your own """less nazi""" PC enthusiast community, you can feel perfectly free to do that just the same as you could've on reddit with exactly the same amount of relative success as it would've had back there.

The fact is that the community was always going to be named "pcmasterrace" because that's what it was on reddit. Someone, anyone, was always going to make a community called "pcmasterrace" because that is how all the PCMR reddit refugees would find it. What you're getting mad about is the equivalent to what happens when people get mad over road names and petition to have them renamed. The small fraction of people who petitioned for it to happen feel real proud of themselves, good job, and then everyone else who never cared about why the road was named the way it was and just wanted to be able to get from point A to point B are indifferent at best and annoyed or angry at worst. All most people really want is to find their community and get back to discussing, so a huge chunk are likely to come to any of these instances' version of "pcmasterrace" because it's a simple way to accomplish that.

That's what I'm hoping for. I don't want a bunch of accounts depending on what device I'm using, I want to have one account on a platform that I like and have good interfaces for using it.

That's why I left reddit, they removed my ability to do that by killing Boost.

I mean the funny thing to me is that this guy is just an idiot. This is r/piracy we're talking about, they're pirates. A decentralized and low-key forum like this is exactly where they should want to be, not on one of the world's five biggest websites just posting freely on main.
