Reddit does get super echo chamber-y in some places, though. Check out any thread in /r/worldnews lately and all the comments. They’re all of the same opinion. At least on Lemmy I see disagreement. I see as many complaints about tankies on Lemmy as I do tankies themselves, for example. The only one I’ve seen in this thread has all their comments in the negative.
I agree and have noticed the same things. I don’t think Lemmy is big enough to attract the state sponsors yet like Reddit is but it will probably be susceptible to the same issues when it is.
So like the relays or whatever that Mastadon has but topic and community focused?
Right? I know Sam Altman sucks but I don’t know if he was fired for more profit or less, or what exactly is going on. I’m not sure how to react to these articles besides surprise and bemusement.
It’s hilarious for all the “democracy” the US loves to “export”, it actually has a pretty terrible democracy. Wildly popular policies have no way to make their way to the government unless a rich person or corporation also lobbies for it.
Well that post didn’t age well lol. Poor Nick.
How long has Gamurs owned The Escapists? I thought it was getting suspicious lately how many different things they were trying to get money so quickly.
They were putting more sponsor segments in ZP videos at different points and Nick would respond in the comments when people complained, trying to find a good place to put them. Then they started letting Yahtzee curse more and offering the uncensored version on their subscription service. And these changes were quickly one right after the other. I should’ve known something like this was coming, but I’m still sad about it. I hate capitalism so much. Why does these corporations have to ruin all my favorite things?
If you considered nothing that's happened since the beginning, maybe, but a lot has happened since then, including a massacre the other day where peaceful musical festival attendees and civilians in their homes were murdered, raped, and kidnapped.
While I agree that Israel is not the good guy here, it's a bit more nuanced than just that now. Hamas has done lots of atrocities and now it's more of an Everyone Sucks Here situation. Murder and rape of civilians are not okay (and yes, even the murders Israel has done, although I do find the rape and the targets escalates this latest atrocity into something more viscerally horrible).
Not to mention Hamas is also pretty far-right, also desires genocide, they just don't have the power to do it.
Yay! More Lemmies! Now post and comment. You're already doing well on that, though lol.
Okay maybe not that one. That would be sad, though. Hope they don’t.
Nice! You should’ve pointed everyone to lemmy.world and had them make an account right there lol. (Or lemmy.ml, beehaw.org, sh.itjust.works, lemme.ee, or any of the popular instances).
There weren’t really famines in the USSR after the beginning, when they fucked up collectivization and then went through a long and brutal war for their people. Same thing with China. They messed up some stuff a lot but they were also basically the first two countries trying a new thing.
But capitalist countries have gone through famines as well, even more so because there have been more of them, and when they were in the same pre-industrial and early industrial periods of their development as well. UK controlled India went through its own famine due to human causes, there was the Great Dust Bowl in the US, basically half of Africa and everything that has gone on there, etc.
Is there a way to link it to make it easier to access from Kbin?
Maybe it’s @ sign instead of the “!”? Try this one and let’s see: @tabletop@beehaw.org
Otherwise maybe someone else will come in and say if it’s possible lol.
!boardgames@feddit.de / @boardgames@feddit.de is also pretty popular.
I’ve never really seen a landlord who does all those things, unless they also live in the property and wanted roommates to help with the mortgage.
I know it’s become a meme, but because capitalism. I’m surprised gamers more gamers aren’t against it because it only ever makes our favorite hobby so much worse.
That’s unfortunate considering they’re the biggest instance.
It’s already been hurting them a lot it sounds like. I don’t think Baldur’s Gate is the first game to not release on Xbox because they couldn’t achieve system parity with the S. If they’ve really softened on it, then that’s a good idea. Better late than never.
Odd. Are they down again maybe? At least there’s other backup communities for a lot of their topics lol.
I’d also recommend !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl. They seem to find some pretty good communities.
