Just the idea/concept felt off... someone should have asked why we need a whole game about a side-character that no one asked for

I like having either tags or posts that start with the brackets (eg: [venting]) so you know what the poster expects in terms of responses. Are they looking for help or just venting? Is it a meme or actual discussion around a piece of media? It just sets some clear expectations at the start so the threads can be what’s most helpful or productive / fun

I nuked a 15yr and 14yr old account on reddit. Just one more to go and today is the day.

It’s funny how these social companies get huge and think they are irreplaceable… when all of them started as a replacement for something else.
Once you think you’re too big to fail? That’s when ya trip.

Came here to say this 👆 It's really not hard to get started or use, folks just drag their feet on it for some reason.

Ubisoft Gives Annoyed Star Wars Outlaws PS5 Players Who Paid to Play Early but Lost All Progress a Trinket and Some Loyalty Points No-One Wants
I don't think folks expect to restart when the pre-order perk is 3-days early access... But we live in a world with day one patches on every single game too 🙃

Do you think DuckDuckGo is a good choice for people who are concerned about their privacy?
It's not perfect, but it's way better for privacy than Google and looks a million times better than Bing. Sometimes the middle path is the best you can hope for / ask of others.

What are your thoughts on Beehaw defederating?
Sad to see, but in the end it will hurt them more than the rest of the fediverse.

wefwef is so good it should be an app and not a web app

Without the restrictions of being on App Stores and going through reviews, devs can move so much faster. I feel like two or three times a day it tells me a new version can be grabbed, and it's caught up to and bypassed the alpha/beta apps from Testflight which get updated once a week (if lucky).

YouTube tests blocking videos unless you disable ad blockers
I pay for Premium (bc I watch mostly from the TV using a console or AppleTV) but this sucks. Especially because how annoying and long a bunch of these ads are now.

Xbox’s ‘Exclusive’ Video Game Strategy Leaves Everyone Confused
Worked for Blizzard before all the Xbox layoffs... The confusing actions are mainly because the gaming division is now it's own company within Microsoft and responsible for its budget and making revenue for the first time in XBOX's history. The leadership level all got promotions and new titles, they shared new org charts to everyone, and then the layoffs and closures began almost immediately. It's no longer about making their user base grow but about making money so expect their games everywhere and to see Game Pass lose features and raise prices.

XDefiant is on Borrowed Time as Player Numbers Decline Rapidly
It's a fun game but an ultra competitive market. Either show you're in it for the long haul or most players will never give you a chance.

Adult ADHD Diagnosis - what is the process like?
Before going to a doctor I would look up local/regional ADHD support and advocacy sites to see what they lost for late diagnosis options. A lot of folks will otherwise waste your time or tell you that since you made it this far a DX won't help.
I did this when seeking my ASD+ADHD diagnosis a few years ago as a 35yr old adult and my process was way less time consuming and frustrating because of that help.
