I was actually about to sign up when I saw it. Glad people started suggesting this instead.

And what would have been really sad about this is that I would bet a sizable portion of the peoplepwho donated are people who could use that help. But they got conned. Again.

I hate to say it, but they have been talking about the sequel for years. At this point even if it comes out, it’s probably gonna be so far removed from the original I don’t know if I even want it at this point.

Legend of Dragoon. One of my favorite turn based RPGs.

Not only is it interesting, and not only is it something they could have left for later

But why would someone be upset at a quick 10 second mental break from work? Take a second to breath. Let out some stress. You didn’t send them a novel and require them to read it then and there and throw all of their work off. It was just a quick little micro break.

I think my only issue is for some of the super niche topics, there might not be enough of a community. Like I looked at emulation, and right now there’s one main emulation magazine… and it’s mostly dead. To add to that, I didn’t frequent the main emulation subreddit, but was on r/EmulationOnAndroid. So I’m not so sure I will have that here.

But there’s other ways to keep up with what’s going on, like YouTubers and the occasional jump onto Discord. So even if that community doesn’t come over to lemmy and kbin, I’ll be fine. I’d still rather have this.

Same. One of my friend’s dad played all the old school DnD games and what not. I remember going over one day and seeing him play that, and when I asked him he was showing me a bunch of things with the open world and the characters. As soon as I was able to get it, I did, and I put in so much time into that game.

Same. I’m perfectly happy with my current phone. Especially when the changes to knew phones tends to be less and less now, and its mostly just adding more power which I currently dont need. I plan to get the battery changed in probably another year to stretch out its use. But it’s gonna cost me money to get it done. So with my next phone I might as well just pay to get it shipped instead of having to take it to someone.

I definitely feel like people are looking at things through research tinted glasses. I would be lying if I said I didn’t think about that stuff.

But at the same time I just got my associates degree while working full time. I didn’t have to go to classes because it was all online. I didn’t need to go spend hours at the library. I was able to type up my papers.

If the majority of people don’t want things like social media, they can always stop. They can find a basic phone. “But they need it for work.” Sounds to me like work is only easier then. I’d rather have easier work.

Edit: I will say though, sometimes I do actually miss some things. Like I wouldn’t mind renting a movie every now and then if I could afford it. It made getting a movie more special. But even then, the convenience of streaming is also hard to beat.

And then they get angry when we tell them we don’t want them there. Like I’m all for women having a safe space, but that doesn’t mean ruining ours.
