II definitely was meant to build the mythos and III wasn't as bad as people make it out to be, though I can see why they abandoned the idea.

Four or Six.

Five was a bit of a rehash of Four, but Six tried to introduce a new paradigm that didn't quite carry through.

Thank you.

It's mostly a matter of getting over it in my own head.

I've been watching the original Halloween movies.

I understand why people don't like the later ones, but I still like them, overall.

I recently got booted off of Reddit and I'm hoping participating here on Lemmy will help me get over the need for social media I hadn't realized I had developed.

I was banned, so I cannot.

Does that mean you can get insurance to cover the purchase of a pair of truck nuts?

Seconded.

A lot of people blame this on people losing their social skills during COVID, but I remember people doing it when I was in high school in the mid-2010s.

Does being rich turn people into rapists or do a disproportionate number of rapists get rich?

As someone who only recently joined Lemmy (as a result of getting booted from Reddit) it ultimately comes down to it being bigger.

You can talk regularly about series have been over for a decade. Just about any niche interest has a vibrant community. The reality is the average person doesn't care about it selling our data, putting a fingerprint on our gear one step above spyware, it being overrun with bots, every level of administration being dominated by megalomaniacs. If you just want to look through some stuff you're interested in while you're bored, it serves a purpose that lemmy unfortunately can't at it's size.
