Good post, agree with this. I enjoyed playing it a few years ago, don’t let the bastards get you down.

Ashe and Lux ftw.

I don’t understand a lot about this conflict but surely there can be no justification for this. Those poor people

I love this thread, so many people are recommending games to each other. Nice to see.

My answer is games like Skyrim where it’s a sandbox but you can pick up different quests. I know there’s a proper name for them but it escapes me.

I know there’s GTA which is a similar type but I want a more twee fantasy vibe

Thanks for posting, it’s really interesting to see what goes into running something like this.

Chucked a bit into the pot. It’s not a lot but I want to contribute where I can.

That would make a good plotline in Midsomer Murders

That explains why so much of my wishlist is on sale, I did wonder

Cat mode?

I would love one please if you still have some!

Good to hear he’s still at it. Wouldn’t have blamed him if he took a break from everything after the last few months.

Still not had an invite to check out Tildes so not seen it, but wish him well.

I think there’s a time and a place for algorithmic feeds. When it comes to Facebook i personally think it makes sense to have a way of filtering the important things first, based on who you interact with. It’s a social network in the definitive sense; we care about some people more than others depending on where in the network they are. However we’ve seen how things go when Facebook use it with pages/news stories (which is really concerning).

For things like Twitter, I want chronological. It’s a real time platform based on sharing information across a larger audience. Its use in breaking news makes timing important. It’s largely gone to shit now because Musk, but in its heyday anyway.

Ideally there should always be a choice, or at least some transparency around how the algorithms work. That way everyone can choose what works for them based on how they use the platform.

I’d love for us to rejoin but realistically it’s not going to happen for a long time. It took god knows how long for us to leave in the first place, going back (even if there was appetite for it) would take a long time. Particularly because of the damage it’s caused us in terms of relationships with EU countries, can see some leaders making us wait even longer just because (which would be fair tbh). I think it will require a culture shift and we’re not in the right place to do that at the moment.

While people have made some interesting comments on the downsides of megathreads, I’m glad we have a way of containing the Musk stuff. It gets a bit much.

To people who do have concerns though, if you’re tech minded maybe look at contributing to a way of improving the functionality of Lemmy. It’s in our gift to improve this place so if we can do something about it then we should, rather than passively complain when things aren’t how we want them to be.

You know you’re commenting on it now though right?

Two Point Hospital on the PS5. Finding some of the levels harder on console than on PC for some reason, maybe I am expanding too quickly

Great tip, first thing I found was this which is definitely right up my street

This will have an impact on journalists who use Twitter to get tips for reporting. Seen some who were concerned this would happen

That sounds great. I think there should definitely be more educational games for grown ups along this line

I’m atheist but I like hearing people’s views about religion and belief from the other perspective as well. I find it fascinating how people believe in different things, belief has had a huge impact on the world (for better and worse).

I get this when logging in on desktop and when adding a post/upvoting on mobile. Hard to know if your post has gone through and I don’t want to spam

League of Legends. I used to enjoy playing it but could only do so many games before I got sick of the angsty teenagers
