gw2updates@botsin.space is available as an unofficial fedi alternative for critical game news if you’re looking for something to follow.

I would recommend replacing the Silver-Fed with Mystic Salvage Kits if you have stones to spare. It’s less gold per salvage :)

It’s slow going for now. I’m just glad we have a reddit-like place to go in case reddit collapses further.

Do dailies on red BL if you hate running into people. Or just learn how to fight. I chose the latter as a PvE player and it’s been a lot more fun.

Thanks for helping the fediverse, CosmicSploogeDrizzle.

Hopefully it’s actual gameplay and not RP that makes it long. I much prefer faster fractals, but I’ll take what I can get.

As much as I’d like that to happen, this part of the fediverse is definitely not ready for a mass migration of users. For now, it’s only longtime users and early adopters. The average user probably wouldn’t be okay with downtime, and the average moderator would be woefully underequipped to manage the community.

Having to redo a meaningless trash pull to reset your title eligibility feels bad.

Having to stand there doing nothing while waiting for mechanics to resolve feels bad.

Not being able to use my dodge to mitigate damage feels bad.

Seeing my friends gear and learn builds they don’t actually want to play just to pull a reasonable numbers feels bad.

This encounter feels like it was designed for a different MMO. I think it would make a great mythic+ boss.

All of them can and should co-exist. The whole point of federated social media is that there’s no centralized power. More on that here: https://kbin.social/m/guildwars2/p/437854/Hi-folks-I-m-adding-a-new-rule-under-Allowed-Content

Thank you for posting these by the way; it’s important that folks are aware of other instances.

The beauty of federated social media is that it doesn’t matter which one “wins”. Once bugs are sorted out, Kbin can see Lemmy’s content and Lemmy can see Kbin’s.

Everything here is connected, so it ultimately won’t matter which platform or server you choose. Obviously there are levers for admins to defederate (or, refuse to communicate with) from servers who host illegal content or enable spammers. This is generally a last resort though; most admins believe strongly in keeping everything connected.
