Yeah, I’m with you. The entitlement around media (games movies TV) is insane to me.

How she discovered this may be too horrible to contemplate though

Smh of course anons would think women playing with their junk is horrible to contemplate.

“time travel to 1994 and play mtg, save the cards for 25 years then sell!” Great advice for anon :)

They cost about the same as a car for in-ground (a new car, not something lightly used lol). You don’t have to be in six figure income brackets to have one.

People with less than 6figure income aren’t spending as much as a new car on a backyard in ground pool. Where do you think they have the cash for that? What bank is going to loan them the funds? Hilarious you think it’s possible in this economy.

So what changed with Lemmy then? A few months back when I joined the ecosystem many instances including LW were unreachable for many hours a day. Joining up to a new instance didn’t make LW content appear (as they were offline).

The issues today feel largely the same as a user, though less frequent. Am I misunderstanding?

If the instance that hosts those communities goes down or struggles to stay afloat won’t it struggle to federate its content outside its own network?

If I join another instance and lemmy.world is down, it’s not like I can see the communities on lemmy.world.

Joining another instance as a user doesn’t solve the problem that lemmy.world has bad uptime outside of the scope of reducing the load on LW itself

objectively be more secure in terms of data privacy

Please elaborate how email would be objectively more secure if you could block Gmail.

You can already block Gmail today from any other provider by putting a filter on incoming @gmail addresses. How does that make email more secure?

This thread isn’t about kbin though. We don’t need to clutch pearls about other services on fediverse when discussing what happens with Lemmy instances.

What do the context clues suggest?

Do you think they are talking about someone selling a Marxism package?

Your last statement is a weird non sequitur.

How does a game having mtx mean they can’t learn the lessons you think they should? Counter Strike is largely the same game it’s always been and it has skins. Your own example refutes the statement you made.
