Technical question 1: as an alternative to a full block, is there a way to "soft block", or tag, or whatever, some people, to act as a sort of CW?

Not ideal, but Sync for Lemmy premium (ultra) has a custom tagging/highlighting feature. Not sure about other apps. It's subscription or a large lifetime payment. But there is cloud syncing (and other features).

Damn, I knew none of this. Which is of course the point.

Who's demanding anything? Surely we can discuss it amongst ourselves as a community?

I agree. I haven't noticed anything from lemm.ee in my casual browsing.

'No Way to Prevent This,' Says Only Nation Where This Regularly Happens

But, like all American culture, I fear this is spreading its influence far and wide too.

In nearly 17 years at Valve, Wood helped build and ship the company’s most notable titles, including Left 4 Dead, Left 4 Dead 2, Portal 2, CS:GO and both episodes of Half-Life 2. He was a founding member of the CS:GO project and worked on that series for six years; he was pivotal in crafting Portal 2’s co-op mode, and he created choreography and combat scenes in Half-Life and Left 4 Dead. Level design was one of his specialties.

You have my attention.

“It really is more about cozy exploration,” Wood told Engadget. “The game has aspects of platforming, but it's very light platforming. It's more about exploring vertically, and exploring nooks and crannies. I've done a lot of things throughout my career, but one of the things I spent a lot of time doing was level design in video games, so I have a lot of personal interest in creating spaces that feel fun to explore, to sort of poke around in.”

The comment would be more useful if you linked to the threads you reference in it.

I think so. sh.itjust.works is no where near as big. And the admin there has always been very responsive and transparent whenever I had concerns. The patient gamers community is also very friendly.

I would like to note that sh.itjust.works hasn't had unverified sign ups enabled for a while now. I have an account there too so it really doesn't make much of a difference to me but I would like an updated stance from the admins here. The initial concerns they voiced don't seem as relevant as they once were.

As for lemmy.world, it's the biggest, and issues can arise from that, so that makes more sense to me.

Almost equivalent to $12 USD where I'm at. You could get a pack for $9 when I started.

But still, a beer is like half that.
