They do need to fix the damn controllers, but even if they didn’t drift the sticker are so tiny and it’s not a comfortable controller at all.

I just use then when I need them (for Switch sports, for exemple) but everything else is 8bitdo controllers and the pro controller, which are so much better.

We hope Eve didn’t fall for this.

They said the BOTW formula is the template for the series for now on, I’m afraid. And I hated it. I didn’t even buy TOTK. But a 2D Zelda can be in the cards for an off team, this has higher chances than a tradicional 3D Zelda for sure.

On a episode of The Talk Show, Christian said Lemmy and Kbin are too young and uncertain for him to invest this kind of work and dedication at this time. :~

He would’ve probably have to limit access for lifetime users because it would come out of his pocket every month :(.

Knowing the way Christian is, he would probably do some perk to lifetime users for us to not feel so bad, but we would have to pay monthly too.

There’s a notice on Apollo saying that June 30th is the last working day of the app. No sure about the time, but maybe 23:59:59 x)

No trying to be explicitly contrarian, but the EEE strategy (embrace, extend, extinguish) is well known by this point and it always ended up with the open standard not being used anymore and falling into irrelevance (as it happened to XMPP after google and Facebook embraced).

I do think it is a design failure, but it’s one that is necessary for it to be open: anyone can enter the space and build features on top of it. So they bring a lot of people, with features exclusive to them and then lots of people migrate because the experience feels broken if you can’t “florp” a post from someone else. It’s the nature of open source vs closed platform that enables the strategy to exist.

It may not happen this time, and I surely hope you’re right, but it would be a shame for the monopoly to win one more time when we had the chance do to something about it but we didn’t. Bringing more people do the fediverse sounds like a dream, but I’m not holding my breath expecting everything will work for the best. There’s a reason they’re doing this, it’s not because they need more users, they already have all of them.
