reimplementing the entire game in a new engine is economically unfeasible

This is equivalent to literally making the game from scratch and changing some art assets is no where near as complex and time-consuming as that would be.

Nah, nearly 90% of mobile users interact with Reddit via the official app (most people use Reddit on mobile devices).

It has graphics and even mouse controls—a whole new game.

The last post is Thelain saying that the forums aren’t very accessible for them and asking if Discord is an option, so I imagine they moved the conversation there.

They can also get that data without doing anything because any data they’d get from federating is already public.

The upcoming season is adding a new “gem” type very similar to Diablo 3 legendary gems that will (presumably) result in more robust endgame builds. They also mentioned a new boss being added, though I’m not sure what level/World Tier it will be at.

No, that’s not how it works at all. All of your public posts are already public anyway, Threads doesn’t need to be involved for literally anyone to go through all of your posts right now.

Short answer is “no.”

Slightly longer answer is: “all of your public posts on Lemmy or Mastodon or any other federated platform are the Public web. So no, it’s not different.”

If nobody writes one up, they’ll almost certainly make an official post on their site covering whatever they go over in the livestream

But the nature of the federated platforms is that they will always be able to have new instance created that can still access the content of the largest, without explicitly needing that community to move over.
