It still shows up here: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/6657926

But it isn't visible when viewing the whole thread.

You don't even need to download their client with GOG to download and play their games ....

So GOG doesn't exist?

I posted this comment 14 days ago,

It seems easier to register in infosec.pub than on sh.itjust.works, I just did it and there’s not even a captcha. It might have more to do with the server problems and what it may be doing to other instances. Or it might just be that time of the year again,

There’s a lot of vague accusations, but it’s hard finding evidence, perhaps because of the nature of it.

I'm curious why it's not showing up with the rest of the comments (or my reply to it) but there isn't a modlog removal.

Sun's problem was competing with Linux, which it couldn't. Nobody wants to pay premium for discount proprietary Linux. Sun's Java, however, still exists. Microsoft's browser is far from the norm. There's more alternatives to popular software than ever, whether it be office suites, video editing, 3d modeling, 2d painting, you call it. No, they don't compete with the industry leaders that have both stability and far more features, but they won't die off.

Embrace, extend, and exploit is just something that's being thrown around to see whether it will stick as an argument, and quite frankly, I already see the 3E's from already existing lemmy instances whose entire approach to the lemmyverse is essentially that - not that it makes it more ok, just that it's clear that people have other priorities when they throw the concept aroud.

I'll tell you what, let's compare the average amount of upvotes and downvotes for those who voted yes and those who voted no ...

Nowadays, it's more of a tactic for getting sued out of a couple of million.

Oh, hi dessalines, saw your downvotes, anything you disagree with specifically? Or is upvoting comments that say explain and downvoting comments providing said explanation just your vision of what you wanted lemmy to evolve to? Nice profile pic.

So, the Microsoft method - except that never really killed Linux.

It's really basically number 2 to get you to move to Threads, the exploit part is going to happen on the Threads side, and is basically going to be with ads (which you can block or avoid seeing) or with selling data about the fediverse in one platform (which defederation isn't going to be able to prevent against). But if embrace and extend is your problem, might as well defederate from kbin and mbin ...

Nay, not worse than some instances already in lemmy and exposure is two way, but looking at the results, it seems I’ll have to create an alt on some other instance if I want to participate with the bigger communities of Threads.

It’s funny that shit like this gets automatic defederation and not the way some admins behave, make bullshit up, and leave links up to instances they claim have pedo content instead of reporting it to the competent authorities. Just like Musk, they make Zuckerberg actually look good in the shit comparison. But people only want to see what they want to see, specially when it involves someone who puts on a very different face when they interact with them.

Nay

Several major lemmy instances have admins as bad or worse than what people are accusing Threads of.

What a weird time in gaming, Bethesda trying to copy No Man's Sky with Starfield and Hello Games trying to copy what Bethesda is trying to sell what The Elder Scrolls 6 is supposed to be. Considering what Hello World has already proven themselves capable off, they are definitely going to be throwing some punches.

You, meanwhile, will be forever completely immune to it, it seems. Thank fucking christ there were people with fucking brains and who are actually virtuous instead of just virtue signalling to get the decision pulled back.

Thank fucking god the rest of the world isn't as deluded as the people in this thread: https://techcrunch.com/2023/12/15/twitch-rolls-back-artistic-nudity-sexual-content-policy-ai-nudes/

It's funny how much your interests align with those of pedos, just because you can't click on another f-ing link for content and stream hosts that already exist for porn.

Then we are in agreement. Unfortunately, raising its 13+ year old requirement to adult only is really only up to Twitch.

It shouldn't have to cater to "adults" who find it too hard to just type another link or go under a different brand when they want to wank off.

Oh yeah, you're totally right 🙄 https://help.hbomax.com/cw-en/Answer/Detail/000001260

I did, I just avoided your disingenuous attempt at controlling the narrative by fishing for particular answers and applied it universally. You can answer it yourself from there, big boy.
