Isn’t that just… Bethesda improving?

I mean while he could physically fly away very easily it’s unlikely he would risk losing access to his properties and accounts in the US.

Yep, got 4 GB of history myself. When my wife updated her phone we made a mistake and had to transfer Signal twice, I didn’t even notice that the first transfer wiped her whole history. What a stupid feature it’s like the Signal devs treat us like children. Unfortunately I haven’t found a replacement that is as popular and I’m happy with yet.

Dopamine is a hell of a drug.

Yeah 30 to 60 is a big difference. Past 60 things definitely start looking real samey though.

Yes.

Probably 2 to 5 years. Lemmy kinda just works and is usable right now. To become better than Reddit the experience needs to be seamless.

Most people are probably just doing something completely unrelated. Remember 99% of people aren’t spending a ton of time online.

I won’t lie I only preordered because I wanted the 5 day early play. My excuse though is that I literally have not preordered a game since we still needed to get them from Gamestop and I’ve been waiting for Starfield for like 5 years now.

The sad thing is there’s a right way to do everything they want but this ain’t it. Spez is litterally digging a hole using the bricks he could be building with.

Probably 95% of that is overlapping since one person being subbed to 20 participating subs is counted 20 times, and since some default and massive subs are participating there must be a ton of overlap.

Nah Steve isn’t smart enough for that.

But followers that don’t want to see it could also block those people no?

If the point is to stop harrasment against the OP then it doesn’t matter if other people see those that the OP blocked. Hiding those blocked by the OP from everyone just allows the OP to create an echochamber centered around themself.

I hope it stays this way. It would suck being excluded from unrelated content on Lemmy just because I had a disagreement with someone at some point in the past (depending on how block happy people are of course).

Idk I think I can be in favor of this if it worked like this. I can block you and I won’t see anything you post and you can’t DM me, but you can see and reply to my posts (replys that I don’t see) so that you aren’t excluded from the general discussion that my post brings up.

Ah that’s true, then really what is the problem? Do they want more analytics that they get from official clients? Or is Steve Huffman actually just an idiot?

Eh unless they made the ads indistinguishable from regular posts then 3rd party apps would just filter them out. I guess Reddit could get around that by disallowing it as part of their API TOS but then they would need to make sure the popular 3rd party apps don’t do it and also possibly sue them when they do.

The recent document leaked by Google kinda claims otherwise though. It’s less about quantity now and more about quality.

Considering how much time I hope to get out of Starfield, once that releases I won’t mind the wait.

To be fair the Fermi paradox says we should have evidence of extraterrestrial life already. There are a few possible explanations and one of them being “the government keeps them hidden” isn’t exactly the most unlikely.
