    Like what else?

  • FTL!!! And yeah, PP is awesome and so unique!

  • Vagante's negative reviews criticize its too-numerous insta-death traps. What would your reply be to that?

    I think you might love Noita!

  • Oh, well, still: good enough!

  • Dang, let me come live with you. I have, uh, beaten Noita, and have grown scallions on my windowsill.

  • Well, I suppose anything can happen but they've stayed consistent since pretty much their inception... Also, Reddit used to be called a content aggregator, not social media, which was coined as such due to its non-anonymous accounts, although these boundaries have reduced over time.

    Anyway, I think we can all agree that we hope Lemmy/FOSS could one day be a major contender in this playing field.

  • Yeah, the current recovery is fake and will collapse soon. It's time for the Greater Depression. Hope you all have your lentils and chickpeas.

    I'm not joking, by the way (sadly).

  • What I learned about Germany most recently is that it's super-mega FOSS-prioritizing, which is awesome!

  • I understand how people are titillated by stories of personal trauma.

    WTF? I don't go there for entertainment but to stay abreast of the latest scam types and procedures so that I or my friends don't become victims. They're getting insanely sophisticated out there, so I'm just as glad as I am to read of people evading scams on there as I am sorrowful for people falling prey to them, while also learning about the right and wrong steps to take.

    This isn't for fun; that's what /r/FreeGameFindings is for, which is also an excellent place in its own way. I am following an equivalent Lemmy community but I'm on both just in case the Reddit one catches any titles that the other doesn't while we wait for Lemmy counterparts to grow.

    So, there, two communities that aren't cesspools. To what subreddits did you go? Here are more: /r/zerowaste, /r/eatcheapandhealthy, /r/personalfinance or even /r/povertyfinance. The "cesspool" stance is subreddit-specific and I bet it's not any one of these. You have to be strict with your subreddit curation and only go to those communities and nothing else (especially never the homepage), and then it's awesome.

    I'm trying to move here not because of subreddit/community issues but beef with the direction that corporate Reddit itself is going—which is fine to ditch due to that, too, but don't imply that all subreddits suck.

  • I am partly an animal, after all.

    What is the other part?

  • I just don't see how that's possible.

    Cue in God. (I'm not encouraging that and am just saying that's what humanity developed over time.)

  • Make every day count

    But that's such horrible pressure.

  • And it's not that short; the island to me seems to be an actual mile wide in circumference. There's lots to do in the one environment.

  • Interesting... So Vivaldi is like Opera 2.0?

  • Why do you have to "get through them" in a specific order, though?

  • Interesting, though you can also just keep pressing Ctrl+Shift+T and it'll eventually restore entire windows in the reverse order of closure, whether tab or window.

  • Then it's your fault for not saying "uh" instead!

  • Sure, this is unfortunately our disinformation landscape now, but regardless, is deception okay (given how it's always intentional by definition)?

    Going back to your original question, I do think people would be annoyed by bots and outed human liars alike; at least, I would be, since the bots are controlled by people anyway.

    As for my Reddit experience, I like /r/scams, among other similarly healthy and truly informative places to be.

  • What kind of question is this? A role-playing person talking to others who don't know they're role-playing is deceitful, so are you saying there's absolutely nothing wrong with deception?

    It's generally expected outside of /r/jokes, /r/twosentencehorror, etc. that the people you're talking to are telling the truth as they know it, or else why talk at all?
