As someone that told you to try MP:H, I think your review is very fair.
My view of the game is of course colored through the lens of nostalgia but I do remember it getting quite repetitive in terms of enemy encounters. So while the variety might not be quite there, the moment to moment gameplay was still phenomenally well executed.

Not really related to political philosophy but Uncle Bob's book on the philosophy of a good programmer also comes to mind: Clean Coder
My guess is that it goes back to when your instance first started following the community or all the way in case of a local community.
While traveling an American also admitted that it was refreshing to get a straight answer to their questions instead of the usual "bs and second guessing". Seems like it must be hard to have a serious conversation in the states.
I live in Munich and it's not crazy here at all. At least by American standards. While people call Munich a big village it does not come with the backwards political attitude of villages and people generally don't openly advertise their political views. The state of Bavaria often likes to protrait itself as first among equals in politics which I think is where the reports of conservatism come from but it's not a problem I think.
Ok the queer subject: there has been a specifically gay subculture in Munich for quite a while and I think there are quite some queer folks in the local chaos computer club chapter as well. The Christopher street day is also celebrated in Munich.
Munich is a beautiful city, I'm sure you will feel quite at home once you got past the (comparatively) frosty German attitude and made some friends :)

OSM is one of the sources for this and apparently the plan is for this dataset to feed back into OSM as well
I know this is the FOSS community but I personally recommend inoreader. It has great usability through its keyboard shortcuts and the ability to pull the full article from the website without clutter (similar to reader add-ons).
If anyone knows a FOSS alternative with similar features, I'd like to know.
