I’m gonna have to downvote you on this.

We ain’t being a baby. Coriander/Cilantro is a genetic thing. You either love it, or you hate it. We can’t help not liking it.

I find it tastes like soap and overpowers everything it’s put into. So if you want to know my experience, cut up a bar of soap and put it into your salad like it’s some sort of weird cheese and try eating it. It’s not a good experience.

Nah the admins killed the instance before the Taliban could at best, kill it, at worse proxy it and gather information.

Seriously gaining control of a domain can allow you to do pretty nefarious things.

Well I always!

No, I mean the Aussie staple seasoning for any chip shop. It’s called “Chicken Salt”

Although MSG is often one of the ingredients in it.

Chicken Salt.

Mind you though, looking at this, I don’t see much of any Chicken Salt. Who asks for chips without chicken Salt? And if he didn’t ask, I thought chicken Salt came standard in every store that wasn’t a hipster main with herbed chips, especially in a country town like robe.

We need your buddy, the Riker maneuver.

Mmmmmm starch

Re: openRCT2: you will need a copy of the original RCT2 in order to play it - it doesn’t include the assets due to copyright. The GOG version’s assets will work for it if you don’t have the disc.

OpenTTD however, has its own custom open replacement assets, so you don’t need the original game.

It’s hard to tell… it doesn’t feel like one, but it remains to be seen.

But I feel like the other alternatives to Reddit and the fediverse are more of a sidequest at this point.

Really depends on the size of the active user base, the quality of moderation and layout of the discord server.

I find while I have a bunch of larger discords that I’m not very active in them. The smaller discords are often where it’s at.

I think smaller instances of a maximum of 1-2000 people are the way to go for the future. Most instance owners are hosting it because they want to and they have a lil extra cash to throw at it, the 500-2000 people instances are usually funded by the likes of a patreon ko.fi or other donation setup.

These instances aren’t big enough that the cost is of an instance isn’t massive and can therefore avoid the likes of Venture capital and Angel investors, and if they start to reach the level where funding is getting a bit short even with donations, they can close new account creation untill the number of donators increases beyond a point

TL;DR: Essentially instances should be welcoming new accounts in waves. So that their growth doesn’t outpace donation income.

Neocities has been around for years now… I have a website there… I do wonder if it’s getting bigger though.

Seems like every old school platform is getting some sort of resurgence these days, and honestly it’s understandable - the collapse of modern social media has created a wave of nostalgia for the good old days of the dot com era.

SimCity 4 openTTD’s openmsx (admittedly I have a soft spot for MIDI in general) DOOM (1993 - again, it’s MIDI) Need for speed underground 1 Tony hawk’s Pro skater (N64) Factorio Minecraft (the C418 era particularly) Terraria (this is just awesome and makes the game so engaging

The list goes on, but these are the ones I can list rn

Honestly, it was only a matter of time before this happened. I’m not surprised at all…

😦😀😦😀😦😀😦😀

Aww man, I was hoping for more struts, gotta keep it together somehow.

From what I heard 20% of the userbase was using 3PA. Not an insignificant amount at all.

No, in fact I think this would make me less active on Instagram than I was before… And I’m not very active on it.

This is because If can use my mastodon account to communicate with Instagram users, then why do I also need an Instagram account?

I on principle don’t delete accounts, I just park them and go inactive.
