Which Futurama line(s) do you find yourself quoting for no raisin?
Everyone saying "Good news everyone" but the real Dr gem is
"Oh my, yes"
And the variation
"Oh my, no"
I use them weekly

it's honest work
Anything else of note so far? How big is the "Fuck spez" section relative to the whole canvas?
Also how long until admins "fix" it, I wonder...

Sad to see Reddit go

I'd love more time to ease into the transition and let Lemmy grow more naturally. So if they did that 180 I'd probably still visit Lemmy first each day, then switch to Reddit once I ran out of new posts.
Hopefully after a few months all my favorite things from reddit would get ported over

Jeroba is great and open source (and free)! Rather than "better Lemmy apps" why not just improve the one that already exists?

Google is getting a lot worse because of the Reddit blackouts
I hit this today. Was playing God of War and couldn't find out how to get back to a certain collectible. Couldn't find any resources that had my problem exceot reddit posts that were now private. I was pulling my hair out in frustration knowing the answer was so close
Archive.org had the questions archived, but before there were answers

Injunction blocking Florida law targeting drag shows applies to all venues, judge says
I just don't get why they've made drag shows and the trans community their new "policy" agenda. Why would you even care about whether a child sees a man (or woman) in drag?
This is why I struggle to empathize with the modern conservative movement. I just don't get it. They don't use logic or reason, they just attack whatever gives them the ick and I wish I could understand being so sure of something that all evidence points to as being incorrect.

I hate battle royale games
Reply in thread
In my mind, it's because the game developers are catering to the "short attention span" gamers, which I think is a pretty large chunk. They want to get to "playing" fast and want that instant gratification.
In Apex Legends, there are hotspots where half the lobby drops, and you either are the one team out of four or five that comes out alive, or you die pretty immediately and have to queue up for the next game. It's just a different style of playing, which I don't fully understand.
But then again, I also don't want to drop in the middle of nowhere and loot for 20 minutes. I want moderate-paced action; an initial fight with one or two teams, then slowly rotate around the map picking intelligent fights where we can.

Comfort games?
No one has said it yet, but I find Raft to be incredibly relaxing. Especially if you just ignore objectives and just sit there collecting debris. It can be so tranquil and a ton of fun

what would Reddit need to do to get you to go back
Reply in thread
I would agree, but would also accept at the very least not going public. Going public ruins companies in the long-term. Short term they have a bunch more capital to make improvements, but it eventually always spirals down until they are just money printers for the investors and don't care about anything

I was blissfully unaware how old it was until you said something, so you're not alone there
And to be honest, I kind of like this popup. It tells me (1) to avoid this website and (2) what extensions I can download that will cause trackers the most disruption!

Is Jeroba official? I thought it was third-party

Reddit (and Boost, the app I used before) offered several different layout styles that you could pick from (e.g. cards, list). Are those the types of layouts you're referring to? Those could be added, I expect, and the more the merrier
Or do you mean more specific layout details like where the voting buttons are?

I'm not a comic book reader, but from what I've heard the characters never dying permanently is a common theme, so at least there's a precedent

Yeah, currently I too frequently end up viewing communities from outside the context of my login, it's a pain that I hope gets remediated soon
