I self-host GitBucket, and honestly your reasoning behind giving up arguably the best version control application, just because of one hosting site, is downright ludicrous.

The thread stated frontends, though 🤔

Working fine for me on Revanced

Nah, they are average human beings

That's insulting? Quite civil words, compared to the words the community he is describing, use in that thread.

I'm not seeing the "insulting users of the community" point you stated OP, could you clarify? I did see one snarky response to a dude calling him an asshole, and I also saw posts stating he shouldn't be a mod, and generally very hostile responsens. Those in mind, I think his output was quite civil even though I disagree with his reasoning and opinion to large degree.

This feels like a witchhunt to me, and I for one don't think a volunteer moderators job should be in question if he has a hot take on something. He's just keeping the spam etc. clean, he's allowed to have differing opinions on subjects, as long as there is no misuse of his mod powers.

I 100% agree, just without the scummy PR-driven administrators, but a more community driven vibe to it. Just like Reddit in the olden days. (my account was 13 years old and once the API went, so did I).

Now if there are instances who don't want Lemmy to grow from what it is now, then by all means the admins are well within their rights to defederate their own community.

As for me personally, I gladly await when my default browsing sort is something else than Everything @ top day.

I should post more.

I did not mean that in a hostile way. I asked because you kept replying to my comments, but disregarding their content while telling me to stop talking.

Based on the vote ratio, other people got the point just fine and didn't feel like they needed to tell me to be silent or scroll back up.

Sorry if it felt hostile.

Since Microsoft's parity issues, I decided to buy Divinity Original Sin 2 to support Larian. I like the stand they made (as opposed to how CDPR did with Cyberpunk), and figured they deserve the cash.

While the graphics could be better, and that it's at times difficult to focus on such a dialogue heavy game, I noticed that I've already spent 20 hours with it and have barely escaped what could be called the tutorial area (fort joy).

I love it. I'm playing 4 custom characters, all necromancers, two melee oriented, two ranged, and it's a total crap fest of a party, but I'm making it work real well.

Are you really not comprehending what I said? To re-iterate: the cost-to-returns ratio to spend man hours for certain features is not feasible because of how much time would need to be spent. This, at worst means some titles will simply not have feature X, and at average means the "worst first" development method means some games will just be worse, than they could have been, if it were merely X, PS5 and PC to consider.

I think we agree that MS bungled their approach and overestimated that cloud powered gaming would take off. But the reality of it is that S has become a thing that holds down game development, and like with BG3, gives sony pseudo exclusivity on consoles. It's also likely what caused 343 to never ship couch-coop on Halo. It worked to some extent, but simply wasn't worth the hours to finish for S.

Sooner or later MS has to tackle the issue somehow, and if I had to guess, they'll rather push for a 0.5 gen jump instead of just screwing with people who bought S.

It's easier to say a game is "newest gen optimized" than to backtrack on their promise.

If you are talking about something completely different, then no worries, carry on. This was merely my 2 cents on the topic.

Could clean up the clickbait a bit I suppose. 💁‍♂️
