I wonder if Embracer even had a lot of stakes in this? They sold of Aspyrs parent company (Saber) a few days before release.

Download an APK of an older version and disable auto-updates.
The API still works well so the old client doesn’t have any issues.
- Comment on Six months after the initial reddit surge (graphs) 10 months ago:
I know I can.
But my point is that a lot of users will not stay here if they need to jump through different identical-communities across several instances or other websites to build their content-flow.

Decenteralized systems in all it’s glory, but I think at some point we will need to address or come up with a solution on how we market niche communities.
In reddit it was so simple to find your communities. Let’s say you grew interest in Balisongs, then you just type r/balisong and there you are. This helps discovery immensly.
Doing this on a lemmy instance will only get you to that instance community. Which means you might have like 10 of these already niche communities spread out around different instances.
Personally I’d think a system where an instance can promote or assign another instance community as the “main” one, with some type of backup feature, would help Lemmy grow.
But I also think that opinion is controversial considering the nature of a decentralized system.

If ypu want to be radical, use Kelvin. At least it scaled identical to C so it’s easy to comprehend.

Issue comes up when people start praising Valve as some godline entity in comparison.

I think it’s important to distinct what part of the left.
Most of the left on Lemmy? Probably not.
A lot of liberals who align themselves with the US democrats? There were a lot of support until the famous pedo incident.
- Comment on Will you be willing to pay for using Twitter? 1 year ago:
I mean it had repeatedly lost money for years, I honestly don’t think anything could have said it. I am not at all defending Musk, I just think the platform was doomed with our without him.
- Comment on Will you be willing to pay for using Twitter? 1 year ago:
I think he, accurately, determined that it was a sinking ship. He got as many employees to leave as possible and is now trying to get as much money as possible from the service before it dies.
- Comment on Do you think editing titles of posts a good idea? 1 year ago:
You were never able to.
I meant it as in “Reddit never allowed you to edit titles because…”. Not that they retroactively took a decision to stop you from doing it.
- Comment on Do you think editing titles of posts a good idea? 1 year ago:
Reddit did it because of hijacking and trolling. Imagine having the top post of all time be edited to some really edgy shit, after it had already gotten there?
It remains to be seen if this will be abused in here or not.
