This is an interesting idea. A few potential issues come to mind:

• In this system, each community needs moderators from each instance it is on. A small instance run by one person would face a challenge finding people to moderate potentially hundreds of communities.
• You mention that a user who doesn’t like their instance’s moderation can use a different instance, but this isn’t easy. There’s no account migration at the moment. This is more of an issue with the lack of that functionality, since there are many other reasons people would want to switch instances.
• If this was implemented, presumably it would require merging all existing communities that share names. There may be some big differences in the culture and content of these instances which could cause problems. You’ll find different content in the “memes” communities on lemmy.world, slrpnk.net, and hexbear.net.

I read that as “water flavored powder”, and was going to say that sounds terrible.

Yea is pronounced the same as yay.

Pizza Polizia

FYI it should be “yea or nay”.

It’s hard to beat Obra Dinn, but The Witness is another of my favorite puzzle games.

Edit: “hard to beat” meaning it’s a good game, not that it’s difficult (although it is in fact pretty difficult).

This comment is more effort than the person you’re responding to was going to put into the game.

It’s fun to fire up every now and then and check out what’s new. I mostly play indie games, deckbuilders, etc., so I don’t care about graphics so much.

I will say they did monetization right - free to play with absolutely no pay to win elements.

From the article - “which is twice the failure rate for non-AI technology-related startups.”

I hadn’t heard that Best Coast song. I love When I’m With You by them, but this one has a very different vibe. Good stuff!

So much for that “thieves don’t read” meme.

They mostly fall under the categories of Hexbear, Moe, and Linux.

Beat me to it lol

I liked the one where he drank a whole bottle of soy sauce and tried to fly Bubs’ concession stand.

Tolkien was known to be a big Donnie Darko fan.

I’m pretty neutral towards them. I use Gmail, Drive, and Google News.

Is it as good as the first one?

All Star by Smash Mouth, obviously.

A couple that I like:

• 80 Days - it’s not free but I think it’s worth it. It’s a sort of steampunk version of Around the World in 80 Days where you have to plan your routes, and buy and sell things in different cities to make money. The main gameplay is sort of choose-your-own-adventure events that happen during travel and in different cities.

• Card Thief - I just started playing this recently. It does technically have a microtransaction but it’s more like, they let you play for free if you don’t mind waiting for chests to unlock, or you can buy the game to bypass this. The main gameplay is sneaking through dungeons represented by a 3x3 grid of cards randomly drawn from the deck; collecting treasures and avoiding getting caught.
