Yeah coming to lemmy and finding out about the so called communist reminded me more of those in favor of the small ruling elite like the pigs from Animal Farm was surprising. Not realizing they are the ones being sent to the glue factory while the pigs lounge around enjoying the lavish life in this so called communist workers paradise.

Reminded me nothing of socialists or at least what I think of socialism with it reminding me of more the monarchy. They seem more like nationalists who coopted socialism/communism to white wash what they actually support and overlooking the elite ruling class that they are not a part of.

Much like the fascists in Western countries who deny they are fascists and are for democracy while supporting ideas of coups for life time dictators that hold their views. Very similar groups.

Indies I think helped younger gamers and old gamers become less impressed by graphics compared to the past. Gamers expect more and there's many indies and old games people haven't played.

Same news all the time.

I love coop and it is great to see more coop titles. Greatly prefer them to pvp.

How is that even measured when you see big budget games with DRM flop and games without DRM get crazy sales. Do consumers who pirate but are willing to pay full price for a game even that significant?

I'm saying they are using it like a rss in the fact that they are mainly there just to follow and be fed content. It's where they go if they want direct content submissions from blank famous person.

You seem more fixated on arguing semantics.

Regular people likely care more about being able to follow who they follow than ads, which they are more likely to put up with even for basic browsing. Last bit was just how I use it.

Not with squawker for Twitter. Displays only people you follow and in chronological order. There's no recommendations or ads.

I think because when it comes to Instagram or Twitter type social media more people probably use it only to follow accounts and have no interest in being involved in it. So closer to treating it like a rss reader than something like lemmy or reddit. And conversation feed sucks in general.

I use squawker for Twitter. Can't comment, like, sub, or whatever and account follows are just local feeds like Stealth for Reddit or NewPipe or Freetube. And that's all I need from it.

Aside from wiki drama seems like a bunch of nothing with good reviews from Steam and it seeming to not have any drama people would be aware of if it wasn't for the article. Without it people wouldn't know about the wiki stuff with how quickly it was dealt with.

Not seeing any drama on /r/silenthill too.

Well I can't do anything because it's EU only. I did do the France thing in the beginning which any person could do, but this is a situation for those outside of the EU only being able to watch.

When I used it the launcher would constantly forget my login. And then for older games like Splinter Cell it asked for a login everytime I launched the game. It was ridiculous.
