I like Paradox Interactive and how they work with fans and mod content. They are saying early access isn’t happening until next year. So it probably not going to be v 1.0 until 2027 at least. This could have a lot of potential, but its going to take a while.

Here is my take - They are adding a new metric called “Engaged Views”, this is the same metric that a “View” was previously, something like - the person stayed after 30 seconds so they are “engaged”. Then they are going to sell ads based on the now inflated view number and use the “Engaged view” metric against creators so they can cut the amount they are paying for monetization.

I can still see it while not logged in but I assume it is only a matter of time. https://old.lemmy.world/ ftw

I mustache them a question.

oh hell, and its gran to you, youngster.

Oh yes, the bot spam coming from non logged in users is a serious problem, totally get it.

Love that they don’t allow comments on blog posts, because they know its just going to be a bunch of ppl saying fuck spez

I joined reddit during the great digg migration almost a decade ago a hell of a lot longer than that ago. Joined Lemmy a few years ago but it wasn’t quite scratching that itch.

Finally made the switch to https://old.lemmy.world/ (and changed my default sort to be “new comments”) while I am at work and I got to say - its working, I feel like I am going back to old reddit when I take my breaks and it was really just the habit and familiarity of the layout that kept me going back there.

This 100%. Everything you write on any of these chats, anything you write in email, anything you exchange digitally can be monitored if it is not end to end encrypted. People are way too ignorant about it. Just because you can’t search your chat history up on Google doesn’t mean you aren’t being tracked, recorded and monitored.

The comic for the women’s bathroom is two girls in stalls waiting for the other one to leave so she can shit.

Lol, I remember using this to fix Win 8 before they added the start menu button back. I might have to set it up again.

I had to install Win 11 on my work computer and it is still total dogshit. One example - The search from the Start menu never works so you have to pin every app to start or go through the whole app list to find the one you want. Its been like this for a year at least. Things, like my speakers, just randomly stop working and I have to restart to get them to work again.
