People keep giving Bethesda a pass for their nonsense, so they keep acting like clowns. Simple as.
Whatever you want to call the genre that Vampire Survivors popularized, Brotato is one of the best of them. The concept is inherently stupid, and they lean all the way into it. It's also only $5.
I enjoyed them all, but Asylum was my favorite by far. It struck a perfect balance between being a tight, contained experience, while giving you a great set of tools to deal with things as you saw fit. It was claustrophobic in a great way, and you felt like an apex predator when you figured out how to work within the constraints.
The rest of them feel excessive in comparison, both being too open and giving you too many tools to work with. I never felt like I could get into a "flow state" with them like I could with Asylum.
This feels like a gross overreaction to the situation. Sure, I don't love the fact that TD has a tiny presence here, but I fail to see how that should be cause to defed a large instance. Especially when that community just popped up recently, only came to anyone's attention in the last day or so, and (to my knowledge) hasn't caused any real trouble other than the Agora mod vote thread getting a bit spicy.
I'm sure it's something we'll need to address internally, but it's just one item on that list. And for now, it seems like a low priority item.
If you want some really wild old storage tech, a normal VHS cassette could hold 3-5gb of data. But we didn't have any use for that much storage at the time, and CDs were taking over by the time we did, so nobody bought the VHS storage hardware.
I'll probably try it eventually, but I don't have high hopes since Edmund isn't involved. SMBF was awful, and this looks like a similar mess.
So far, we have a captcha on account creation now and it seems to be working (from what I've seen, anyway)
It'll be a tough balancing act though. Relatively frictionless sign-up has been great for us, and anything that deals with bots will also affect that. Whatever else we may end up doing will need to be carefully considered.
I do the opposite of taking care of mine, and they're still going strong after 20ish years. Corcoran boots are damn near indestructible. They've only been semi-retired because I've moved other boots that are nearly as tough, but much more comfortable. Specifically Red Wings for normal wear, and Ariat cowboy boots for actual work.
I don't even really think about it, I just comment if I have something to say. At worst, nobody reads it and I was shouting into the void for a minute.
But the Lemmy userbase isn't massive yet, so those week+ old posts still see more engagement than you'd think.
The first time they referred to that world as the "Apex Universe", I gave up all hope. Even if they do make a Titanfall 3, it won't be what we want.
You can buy some at the grocery store, it says "Moon Cheese" right on the damn bag! They wouldn't just lie about what they're selling

The honest answer is that we're still trying to get The Agora running, and a backlog developed in the process. We are working on it, it's just going to take some time to sort through the old votes. We've been focused on cleaning up the process so we don't have this problem moving forward.
