I can't fathom how people have been using the redesign in the first place. Old.reddit was the only way.

Imo stevia is one of the best of the no calorie sweeteners, but since that entire category is absolutely abhorrent that's sort of like being called the fastest snail.

Why is there steak at the steakhouse??

Every single edition of Windows introduces new forms of bloat and new ways for MS to overreach and attempt to play corporate nanny over a user's system; why the fuck would anyone willingly upgrade Windows when they have the chance not to?

I suspect you know this already, but the slow walk and slow crawl moments are actually discreet loading screens. The alternative would be always having normal fast movement but then facing black transition loading screens.

Not that I'm stoked to defend FF7R, which I think is a bad bastardization of one of the greatest games of all time, but the slow loading transitions are arguably one of the things FF7R actually does right.

This. I have nearly 3k hours in Civ6, but as soon as I heard 7 had Denuvo I took it off my wishlist and ignored it instead. Can't believe they're still pulling this insulting bullshit when the indie game landscape is so plentiful currently

And I think this is how people should start thinking of Lemmy communities maybe, or at least as an option for Lemmy communities; to be less like subreddit ls and more like personal pages frankly more akin to Myspace. Part of the appeal of Lemmy, to me at least, is the decentralization and reclamation of some level of ownership. So maybe lemmy is less a place where you go to join c/deathmetal and c/crotchet and c/vintagesmurfpornography, but instead it's a place where you start c/yourusername and declare it your personal shrine to needlepoint, cannibal corpse, and blue cartoon-fuckery.

But I also smoke weed, so I might just be having a moment

I feel grinding is kind of the point of Pokemon games, tbh. Without needing to grind, how long would it take to just steamroll through the story, a few hours at most? Even as is with the difficultly assuming grinding, people are still speed running gen 3 in under 2 hours

I love these polls that report on obvious conclusions that don't require polling.

Like yeah, no shit. The problem is the people holding the reins of power couldn't give two shits what the American public wants or thinks.

I hope that you are incorrect, but fear that you are closer to correct than not, sadly.
