And my axe!

That’s Lemmy in a nutshell. Guillotine and Luigi memes are constantly repeated because they know that no one’s actually going to act on that stuff, but any time anyone suggests a practical means to weaken the oligopoly people come out of the woodwork to shut it down.

It is all around us. Even now, in this very room. You can see it when you look out your window or when you turn on your television. You can feel it when you go to work; when you go to church; when you pay your taxes.

And yet it gets repeated (and upvoted) in every thread.

Mastodons have been extinct for millennia and don’t come up in conversation often. Lemmy and Peertube aren’t words at all. Loops is a pretty common word, though, so it needs something extra if you want people to know what you’re talking about.

“The UI is bad” is the stock attack on any open-source project. Doesn’t matter how good the UI actually is, or how bad the corporate version is, “bad UI” is such a nebulous criticism that you can apply it to anything.

Just Google it.

Hopefully Sublinks, PieFed or Mbin will be ready soon so that we can ditch Lemmy entirely.

I’ve got my own SMTP server set up on a VPS and I can send to GMail addresses just fine. Am I part of the “cabal”?

Let’s just hope that we get 20 back from the Kaiser before we hit that number.

Bring back Yahoo!

It is from the 2000s. Its first release was in 2005.

I guess Bungie just really likes being owned by a huge corporation. First Microsoft, then Activision, now Sony.

Yeah. I’d put a tonne of time into Skyrim before I realized it was crap. The game was very good at convincing you that maybe the next quest-chain would be better, or maybe it would be better with a different character build. Spoiler: It wasn’t.

Just go to the main page and scroll down a bit. The giveaway’s there.

They probably saw one post that wasn’t fawning praise for Nintendo and it broke them.

Or like The Witcher: Enhanced Edition. This is always how CDPR worked.

I’m not sure if Lemmy, Kbin or Tiles will be the successors.

That’s kind of a moot point, since as long as they can federate with each other it doesn’t matter what software an individual instance runs.

The Shadowrun games from Harebrained Schemes are some of the best RPGs I’ve ever played, and they all have native Linux versions. Daggerfall’s my favourite, but all three are good.
