It’s sad because most AAA game studios are just focused on making an on-rails story game or a competitive realistic shooter. Nowadays they’ve added “open-world” to the archetype.

Just imagine the fun games we could have if they devoted time to just creating a fun game like Indie Developers seem to focus on.

I beat CyberPunk 2077 in under 40 hours even doing many open world events and doing ~5 side-quests for every main story quest. I remember getting to the last quest and being like… “That’s it? It’s already over? That was ridiculously short!” and I’ve never touched the game since…

Meanwhile, with 800hours in Terraria and probably 8k+ in Path of Exile over the years.

No, they’re being paid by a European group to develop Lemmy.

Lemmy devs are being paid to develop Lemmy, they literally admit to it.

I get that, there’s a bunch of unethical associations with everything we use. But right now the main developer of Lemmy has his profile setup with Chairman Mao as his background, his Github repo avatar is Che Guevera, and he has an entire repo filled with propaganda copy-pasta. In the past people have also pointed out that lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml resolve to the same IP address although this is no longer the case. Lemmygrad supports the DPRK and transitively one of the most horrific dictatorships in the world, and yet it’s advertised on the “Join-Lemmy” website.

Even if the software itself is apolitical and we can see through the open-source nature of it that it is not going to be abused to further those agendas, there’s no doubt that as that knowledge becomes more commonly known that it could severely impact the whole idea of a Federated Reddit alternative.

I guess the most important thing to consider is that the software, being open-sourced, can easily be forked if this ever becomes a problem.

Honestly I’m casting my support with KBin after hearing about the political affiliations of the main Lemmy dev. It’s worrisome because at this time of volatility, the community is going to be very fragile and stuff like that can really cause a massive problem when the community starts hitting critical mass

I’ve been really wanting to swap to a Wayland WM but I tried several of them and had numerous flickering and black screen issues. You would think nvidia would be catering more to Linux audiences since that’s where a lot of ML dev and training will be done
