I don’t wanna be mean to the guy who effectively just lost his job but like, come on bro. Reddit wasn’t exactly hiding their negative intentions, outright lies, and lack of respect.

I miss power-up racers that weren’t just Mariokart clones, like NASCAR Rumble and that.

They’ve got color laser printers too, just bought a HL-L3290CDW last week to replace my roommate’s cheap Canon printer that I got tired troubleshooting every time we needed to print something. Absolute monster of a print device: color laser printer+scanner+copier+fax machine and a seamless printing process to boot.

Except they have outright removed a bunch. All but two of the r/TIHI mods were purged, as an example.

Literally why

They already have Truth Social and Twitter.

It wasn’t broken as hell after like two weeks of development when the critical glitches like save corruption were getting fixed. As someone who didn’t overhype the game for a decade and only bought it because I knew everyone else was going to, I had a great time. It was just cool to hate the game up until the anime dropped and everyone suddenly forgot they hated it.

Even if the obvious situation wasn’t just “companies treat us terribly so we don’t care about them,” why would anyone want to work? Am I supposed to desire wasting a third of my life doing labor? Fuck no, I support automation and UBI.

It’s just another dumb boomer insult trying to step on the nerves of people who didn’t grow up huffing leaded gasoline.

It’s not gonna extinguish the fediverse in the same way nobody leaving reddit joined Mastodon as a replacement. They’re technically compatible, but these are entirely different styles of sites we’re talking about. Lemmy and Kbin are gonna keep on trucking regardless of what happens to the Twitter-likes.

But they’re definitely going to try and kill Mastodon/similar through social engineering. Everybody’s favorite content creators, organizations, and brands will be on Threads, not Mastodon, and when they lock it down we’ll lose access to them and end up needing a Threads account. I don’t understand why anyone trusts this company won’t try to secure market dominance and then monopolize it. The guy says “we’ll just be right back where we are now,” but this could easily decrease the Mastodon population by pulling away anyone who doesn’t care about federation or open source and just wanted a decent Twitter alternative.

LEGO games and Minecraft (on Peaceful difficulty) would be pretty good I imagine.

Boost is still up at the moment but Boost for Lemmy is already up for pre-registration, so I don’t think it’s a hard cutoff or anything.
