That us just incorrect, his plays marked major shifts in the style of writing for the english language, many writers after him adopted his style and the new mechanics he was making in his plays.

Tears of Grace has some videos that just showcase the… brokenness, seems a bit forgiving as a term, of the game.

Eh, it’s just shifting of how written work is relfective our spoken word. It’s pretty rare for me to use a stronger “ah” sound when saying “would have” most of the time defaulting to a softer schwa sound, which sounds almost exactly how how “of” sounds. English has been changing and evolving for centuries. There’s even major epochs like the great vowel shift. Hell if Shakespeare were around today and making the drastic changes to the english language like he did back then he’d be crucified by internet prescriptivists for using English improperly.

If you’d like something a bit more modern, Mark Twain broke english rules all the time in his writings and he’s considered one of, if not, the greatest American writers.

As how Marx outlined Communism as the evolution of Capitalism once it reaches a scale of production that everyone can have their needs met, resulting in a classless, stateless, moneyless society, then yes authoritarian communist is an oxymoron.

From what it looks like to me in testing, in any given instance All is any other instance that communicates with said instance, Local is all communities within an instance, and Subscribed is just the communities within the instance you have explicitly subscribed to.

A collection of tools to navigate the fediverse in general would be nice too A way to discover other instances, see which instances are communicating with each other, that sort of thing. But yeah being able to filter out specific instances would be great there’s a lemmynsfw instance that I’m sure there are plenty of people who don’t want to see that kind of content.

On Reddit, I always had fresh content, which I’m not really seeing here

Eh That comes with time, I’m sure there were people back during the Digg exodus that complained Reddit didn’t have as much content. It’s all user generated stuff, so more users, more content, best we can do is step up ourselves and get the content going.

Once you get a hang of how the fediverse works in general, it’s pretty good so far. Using mostly mobile atm, nice and clean, functional pretty similar experience to reddit. Aside from a few features missing like search, I’d imagine there is plenty of room for moderator tools too, and the occasional error codes, I’m loving it so far. No ads, just content, and while it’s not the firehose that reddit is/was, if this keeps getting popular, I could forsee just as many communities popping up across instances as there are subreddits.

I’m sure with the influx of users from reddit, especially the more technically savvy mods we’re going to see a lot of good tools made for the app and with it being open source, I imagine the devtimes are going to be even quicker than dealing with an ok API.

Going dark fulfills a whole bunch of objectives, filling up with trash is one of them, it’s fewer eyes seeing ads because less content keeping people scrolling, people subbed to subreddits that went dark are getting a stream of messages saying the execs at reddit fucked up and are providing alternatives like discord and Lemmy, and anyone who even dabbled with fediverse relates stuff like mastodon are getting messages and emails capitalizing on the mass Exodus saying hey come to lemmy, we’re like reddit but decentralized.
