Barely a week in and we all get an awesome example of why decentralisation is a good thing

It's a valid point. We can't expect to be free of corporations and also expect people to maintain servers for free. Running a service costs someone somewhere, and running a massive service can't easily work relying on just donations. I'd be happy to pay a small monthly/yearly fee to a nonprofit to guarantee an independent server, rather than to be a product to be traded.

I think it's just that the whole concept of shooting/ gunplay really lends itself to the first person viewpoint. Another example is racing games or flight sims. Plus, aiming/ shooting is a great example of easy to pick up, hard to master skills in both games and real life. So I think it's just a natural use of the technology

I wouldn't trust it for a hot second. If there's one thing people do not miss, it's money. And if they are banks, they'll throw the book at you to get it back. I'd call them and not touch my account until it was sorted.

Good, I almost took an interest in my family last week

Mastodon let's you do exactly this, I think lemme should too

I too have landed on lemmy world. Seems nice here. I've noticed a lot of timing out over on lemmy.ml lately, seems they're getting dogpiled lol

For sure, we've been spoiled by by VC-funded slick polished apps for too long. If we want freedom from coporate control we gotta accept some jank.

Hi. I just got here too. The app is bad and it's a little quiet but it seems to be full of nice folk. It's got that feeling of starting fresh.

I sank so so many hours into OW1 in the first two years... I barely touched OW2. Its a hollowed out, soulless imitation of the original. Fuck what Blizzard has become.

Fuck yes I was hoping formuladank would make the jump. Instasub

Wow it really IS like Twitter!
