You can’t just write an essay like that and not tell us what terms you used for your searches

And that’s why I’m forever AMD

I can see why they vilify it. Drugs straight deteriorate some societies to the point it’s irrecoverable for centuries (see China and opium). Sucks about the loss of human life over it either way.

For some people that’s just how dating works out

You missed the point but that’s ok

Yeah I will never not dislike Ubisoft games on principle

Gooooood

This comment section is why I have linux communities blocked. Seethe.

By that logic we better disable images altogether because someone might link an image of the Eiffel Tower at night since that's illegal and the instance owners might have to pay legal bills hurr durr

Fucking retarded. Why wasn’t there a community census in this at least?

Still wondering if it’s Covid

Wondering if it’s Covid

That community fails to understand Musk operates in “any publicity is good publicity” nowadays so it ironically helps him. Blocking that community was the best thing I did and recommend everyone do.

What negative connotations does old have? Seems like a waste of dev time for nothing

That lasted a whole one day and it was enough to understand why those memes died in the first place

Elden Ring + Doom Eternal

I can’t wait to drive with a 20 dollar Logitech gaming controller instead

It’s more safe than closed source because it’s open for all to view and edit. Of course if nobody looks at it then it’s as good as being closed.

(Just my personal observation)

Basically during the subreddit lockdowns most of the users there didn't and still don't give a fuck about the api changes, which is understandable. The NBA finals were going on at the time, and while that contributed towards their disdain towards shutting the sub down, I personally think even if it was off-season they still would have the same attitude. But none of that actually makes them poor users.

The issue primarily is that the whole fiasco revealed a lot of their true colors. Most of the posters are willing to bootlick and grovel as long as they get what they want; which is a place to shitpost/discuss the NBA. They do not care how trash the official app is and generally think the people complaining are crying nerds that need to touch grass. It's fair to not care about people complaining about using unofficial apps, but not understanding how the api changes eventually affects them and their precious sub is sad to see. Even worse was when some of them went out of their way to disseminate misleading information everywhere.

You know how Reddit started degrading as more and more """normal""" people started piling in? That's them basically. They never came to the site early on to grow it, only near its twilight years to inevitably cause its downfall. This place right now is awesome, but once you get a userbase that's comparable to youtube comments, it gets bad.
