Checkers. You start with only one piece type and they go to the trouble to make all those squares and you only use half of 'em.

This is the last ad that had me paying full attention when it first came on. It was ran during the football finals season and they made two cuts, one for NRL and one for AFL. https://youtu.be/gbMeKMkE_mk

If I remember right, there was a spam detector bot or similar which I’m sure was third party and it either went off altogether or the project was suspended after accessing the API was going to come in.

That got stuck in another canal, not the panama one. Maybe Suez?

As someone who has enjoyed much of “Letterkenny”, I feel I should steer you in the direction of “Utopia”.

Pretty good. Using it much more and noticed a pretty good uptick in other posting stuff since I created my account… I’d say I have two feet in the door to a new home. . Edited to clean up as was typing initial response on the go.

Thanks for keeping us updated. FYI i noticed an issue there was an error message saying to check (the matix) and (somewhere else, Lemmy community support?). Both of them pointed to the same URL, but im sure they were meant to point to different places.

Edit. Happed again and I took notes. Both point to lemmy.ml community support

I’m here to give you an eye exam. Just look into this device…

“Tomorrow is when the real shit hits the fan.” I don’t know about that. I think it’ll take a while and there will be several stages. Tomorrow the power users leave, and moderators might either do a lot less or disappear completely.

Then would be a rise in bots (i saw an AITA post i thought might be bot generated as i couldnt possibly think how “OP” could be anything but an asshole) and spammers, people voting might help keep some of that at bay while the users who browse by hot might still get what they want. Then there would likely be migrations of users.

I think people who go to subs like funny and AITA could still be there for a while, but i think the content will degrade and some subs i think have taken permanent hits in viewership. 4 months ago i could think of some where i’d consider advertising a product to a niche, but there’s zero chance i’d be parting with money today.

I think the effects of this will be large and far reaching, but those looking to cash out are still steaming ahead for their IPO payday, and whatever happens from there will be the new owners concern. It’d be different if i thought they wanted to IPO and still hold a large share of the company, but everything im seeing leads me to believe thats not the case.
