Preventing this issue doesn't seem like a userscript issue (though that's definitely a good start).I think the auto report function is severely needed; it's happening everywhere. If the script can automatically block any user whose post it suppresses, it would be awesome.

But I think the issue is that we need to get support top-down on this.

The only way to resolve this situation is to get Ernest to delegate some of the instance moderation and amount. Every other path forward leads to failure.

@Jezebelley3D That's really cool

But they can't get the game they were promised from the game that was released. They were promised a zombie MMO, not a limited extraction shooter.

That's fine and all, but I have one question. Why would you want to want to revisit the biggest video game scam in recent memory?

I'm going to present the opposite opinion to yours here. Kbin represents the best way forward for social media, to me. If we can get a working PeerTube integration after Threads federates, I'm all set. It's what Google Plus was supposed to be, it's why I first (as a user) used TweetDeck back in the day. It puts everything in one place again. I was a LiveJournal user back in the day, which was another place like this - communication & community, but individual places for your thoughts. I tried Tumblr for a while and it was close to an LJ replacement.

Everything since then has fractured and fragmented so we have very aggressive echo chambers, but no private places. This might be able to give that back to the users.

I accept that it can feel like drinking from the firehose at the start. It was to me at first too, but I was aware of Lemmy early on, and I was on two Mastodon instances that didn't cofederate. I knew what I was going in for. I stepped back from Kbin when a known tech issue degraded my experience, and it's been fixed. I think the thing is that Kbin allows you to curate your own experience, rather than be tied into doing one thing or another all the time.

I think when Kbin is ready for prime time and when the major issues are fixed, there might be a need to look at the first-timer experience, maybe even a tutorial. Because it's not a beginner focused interface. It's meant for us who want it all back in one place, and accepted the burden of experience that means.

Isn't that the core premise of things like Elvira, Svengoolie, and MST3K?

Pitchfork being on an alternative social platform just feels right to me. So I say, go for it.

Well, if he doesn't care, then I just might bother the time and effort to pirate it. But then again, a dismissive creator who's working with Markiplier isn't someone I'm really keen on supporting in the first place. I wish him luck, and that he is approximately as successful as I am in financial terms.

Because Threads presents an opportunity to grow the community on ActivityPub services, and because the Fediverse presents the opportunity to extend the community I'm involved in that's on Threads right now. My hope is that if that group respects what the Fediverse offers, they will also start sharing the podcast on PeerTube

My hand is raised.

You know, it would be more environmentally friendly just to plant one tree and decorate it while it's alive, instead of chopping down a living tree and transporting it.

 

One of the LPers I watch has been playing Final Liberation, which reminded me how much I enjoy that game. It's also reminded me how much I liked Epic.

Are there any retroclones or resources for Epic nowadays?

 

I know this is a silly question, especially as I'm currently focused on local-only feeds, but there's just one part of the Fediverse I wish would get more love: PeerTube. While there aren't a lot of people actively looking for alternative video hosts outside the big guys (Twitch, YouTube, Dailymotion, etc.), it would be nice to see wider adoption of PeerTube. I think better integration with other softwares would be helpful in that regard, if for no other reason than just that it brings attention to the services available.

 

Why do fast food places give out so much sauce? I got 4 chicken nuggets and some fries, asked for mayonnaise for the fries, they gave me three packets. Got honey mustard for the nuggets, and they gave me two tubs of it. Are people really using 1.66 oz. of sauce on 4 tiny nuggets?
