I can’t be the only one thinking that your image looks like a knockoff of “Star Wars: Rogue One”. Same font, same alignment of words… Make the game YOUR game. Don’t rely on familiarity with other brands to draw people in. They’ll be disappointed when it’s NOT a Star Wars game and you also open yourself up to legal issues from Disney, who owns the star wars brand.
I’m not saying protests didn’t have a use. Just that their main use was overshadowed. Peacefully sitting in somewhere didn’t do much. It was the legal things it lead to that did something. Without the legal precedents set, it would have just been brushed back under the rug eventually. You need to incite change, not just annoyance.
Protests actually weren’t MLKs strongest tool, and he himself admits it. Getting arrested for doing something and then challenging it in court now that you have standing was his biggest tool. Most of the protests were just a means to get arrested. It’s revisionist history that says it was the protests specifically that worked because it’s better to emphasize the tactics that didnt work than to point out what actually did and risk a reoccurrence.
How is that any different than reddit with all the r/X, r/TrueX, r/AltX, r/X2 subs? Whether they’re distributed amongst one instance or many, it’s functionally the same. Just like we already aggregate content from numerous sources, the fediverse also aggregates the communities too.
I’m subscribed to many communities/magazines in a variety of instances. And many of those I found through word of mouth on here or just by browsing “Hot”. They weren’t hard to find. I honestly don’t see the problem. It’s supposed to be splintered so no central authority has control. That’s the whole point.
Honestly, good. People shouldn’t be picking based on quantity, but quality.
No worries. In case that came off overly critical, please know I just want you to shine. Not accusing you of anything. Just want your unique self to show through. That’s part of the beauty of an indie project; it’s not the same corporate stuff.
