A cool guide software alternative
Calling Figma free is like calling complimentary bread sticks a full dinner.
Penpot would be a better alternative. I never used it but it's gaining momentum.

Trump is 'hanging himself' with his own rope as campaign spirals out of control: analyst
We keep getting these reports yet the race is still 50/50. He might still win. I feel like he can call Kamala the n word and it still wouldn't affect his chances.

YouTube is slowing down for users with ad blockers in new wave
Reply in thread
I'd happily pay for premium as I use YouTube religiously. But it's Google so fuck them, they already process my information in order to show me ads and profit off of my data. I think that's payment enough, so I'll just find any free way possible to watch YouTube without ads.

The wild successes of Helldivers 2 and Baldur's Gate 3 send a clear message: Let devs cook
Reply in thread
Exactly. Ubisoft is the perfect example of this. Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Splinter Cell, Ghost Recon, R6. They used to take risks and try to push gaming forward with amazing ideas and design that made my kid brain explode.
Now those IPs are dead or extremely stale. And it's because releasing an AC with microtransactions makes them more money than making an offline single player Splinter Cell. Or releasing a skin for 20 euros for R6 siege makes them a huge profit for the time invested in creating it.
God I wish we'd get a new single player Splinter Cell. Some of my best memories I have as a kid are playing the original Splinter Cell. Even if we do, it'll be riddled with microtransactions and will fail to capture the magic of the original games.

Child Rapist Steven Van De Velde Cries After Being Booed at Paris Olympics
Reply in thread
Or you know, not have sex with 12 year old girls. That usually does the trick.
Fuck this asshole. I don't think his life should be over, but he shouldn't be representing his country anywhere. Shame on the Netherlands too for sending this rapist to the Olympics.

The final nail in Reddit's coffin dropped today:
Relay also stopped working for me today, so here I am for good now, at least on mobile.
I hope reddit sinks to the bottom because of their greed.

It's time to admit Lemmy has won the "the biggest reddit alternative" award, why it's time for all of us to consider supporting it (here's why) + reopening r/LemmyMigration

And, everyones total misunderstanding of the fediverse. Yea, no wonder it's all tech people here, dumbass
That seems like a lemmy problem. It's not their fault they aren't techy, it's Lemmy's fault for completely disregarding them.

What game did you last finish? What did you think of it?
Alan Wake 2. What a masterpiece, especially THAT sequence. I absolutely loved this game.
The older I get, the more I start to appreciate studios that take risks and believe in their creative identity. Games like Death Stranding and Alan Wake 2 are perfect examples. They're not everyone's cup of tea, but that's what art is. Someone might hate something that you personally find breathtaking. And vice versa.
I'm also playing Spiderman 2 at the moment, and while it's good and it's very fun, I will not remember this game 1 day after I finish it. Death stranding I finished 3 months ago and I still think about it. I'm extremely excited for DS2 and hopefully Alan Wake 3.

Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League Review Overview
I cannot be the only one intrigued by the story concept of this game. Playing as the villains going after your favourite heroes, seeing everything from their perspective, potentially going through some character development. If it was that, I would've bought it Day 1. It had such potential, but the assholes at Warner Bros wanted to make it into a cash cow.
Such a waste...

100%. I don't have problems with them charging for their API, it's how they went about it. 30 days for such a massive change is outrageous.

Google confirms Gmail is “here to stay” amid speculation over plans to scrap the email service
Reply in thread
I mean this would be insane. Gmail is probably the most used email service in the world, and even though I'm not a Google fanboy, it's also probably the best.
What are people gonna use? Outlook? Fuck that. I only use that piece of trash because of my job.

Yep I have it too. For now it works flawlessly. Hopefully it doesn't take much from Google's userbase and they just leave it alone lol.

Same. It reminds me of the early days of reddit with those small communities. Unless reddit goes back on its changes, more and more people will come here.
We might get some dope 3rd party apps and then we're golden.
