The big test for users is going to be once the apps shut down. Right now, it’s still very convenient to browse whatever is left on reddit. On July 1st…we’ll see.

I feel like Lovers gets pretty stressful at times if you’re playing 2p. I prefer more chill co-op experiences.

The concept of “tough love” can mean a lot of different things and dismissing it as having “no value” is painting with too broad a stroke.

In this specific instance, it’s helpful because kids need to learn at some point that they can’t always cry to get what they want. This absolutely has value because otherwise they continue that behavior as toddlers (and sometimes even past that if you keep enabling them…).

I dunno if that’s exactly comparable. Yes, you’re technically correct…but then we should expect phones to either be thicker or have smaller battery capacity to compensate. That’s probably a fine trade-off for you (and probably for me), but that’s not universally true.

Gives me Simpsons vibes.

Chalmers: Ah- Aurora Borealis!? At this time of year, at this time of day, in this part of the country, localized entirely within your kitchen!?
Skinner: Yes.
Chalmers: …May I see it?
Skinner: …No.

Sorry… Guess I don’t get notifications when I get a response. Your point is valid for infants, though obviously can’t be sustainable forever. Maybe the cutoff is once your child learns basic communication, but at some point crying for attention shouldn’t be universally rewarded with positive reinforcement as it can encourage negative habits.

That’s awfully close to Baldur’s Gate 3 :(

It’s not related to the migration. The article said the lower valuation is as of May 31, before all the backlash on reddit began.

It might be harder to pull that off without making the phone thicker in the process, but still possible.
