There’s a mechanism for seeing who performed the mod action, I just can’t recall how it’s done off the top of my head. I know one of the frequent anti-tankie posters shares which ml mod has deleted posts/comments in their posts.

I’d say the one that hates Mario party, but now that I think about it, I don’t know how Jeff, Jeff, or Jeff feels about it. I only know how Jeff feels about it.

I’ve heard people say good things about Retrotink
- Comment on Why is my Dreamcast displaying tiny with a new HDMI cable? 4 weeks ago:
Looks like it’s outputting at the original Dreamcast resolution. I think you’d need an upscaler if you don’t want to have to rely on the TV’s picture settings. It may also be worth seeing if you can lower the display resolution to 480p on that input.

- Comment on Apex Legends writer gets laid off 24 hours after the character she wrote is revealed, because that's what the games industry in 2025 looks like 5 weeks ago:
Their crunch culture is def bad (they’re going to kill Sakurai one day), but there is quite a few things they do right. They don’t lay people off and their executives take accountability. Iwata took a significant pay cut when the Wii U flopped.
