“Make your own games!”

“Okay!”

“No! Not like that!”

What if I visit the community/magazine without posting? How do they know?

I’m a game dev, so I’ll have to at least keep around either a Windows VM or a dual boot system, since Windows is still very popular.

Later on: the employee who does extra work will make the employee who does the bare minimum getting fired, but he doesn’t get a wage increase. He will however complain about “lazy” people like immigrants, the disabled, etc. instead.

These employers they won’t hire

ACAB means the police is upholding unjust systems and laws, isn’t that cops as individuals are bad. Of course a large percent of them are domestic abusers and racist, but that’s an entirely different issue.

I have already done my part on my Mastodon account.

My main concern is the awful moderation of Meta’s services. Bullying, celebration of loss of rights and violence committed towards of protected minorities; and outright misinformation are allowed. All while the very same people duped the moderation AI to flag any criticism of said hate speech as the real hate speech because false reportings. Facebook, instagram, etc. are notorious for letting big far-right accounts get away with hate speech and defamation, and I don’t really think it’ll be different on Threads for very long.

EDIT: In the meanwhile, I remembered screenshots of showing this exact moderation problem already happening on Threads, but to a way lesser degree, than on Facebook so far. Maybe this will make them getting booted from even the instances that didn’t originally plan to defederate them.

1. I already had issues with Reddit long before the API drama, due to spam, etc. However when the API drama dropped, I almost 100% switched to kbin, save for the rare occasion I found some useful info on Reddit, with the occasional tumbling into some other interesting threads.
2. I post more often to Mastodon, slowly leaving Twitter too, I just need to convince my fellow authors to do so, to give me even less reason to use it. I however decided to limit posting updates of my game engine to Twitter, and instead use the main account now dedicated for it ( @PixelPerfectEngine )
3. I haven’t heard of Matrix, I’ll look up it. I don’t have any major gripes with Discord so far.
4. Peertube is fine and dandy, however it’s even less adapted than other Fediverse platforms, all while YouTube would be mostly fine IF IT DIDN’T ACTIVELY TRIED TO SABOTAGE MY FIREFOX! I EVEN PAY FOR PREMIUM AND MEMBERSHIPS!

I don’t really use any other save for following a bunch of Misskey accounts with my Mastodon. However, I was thinking on creating a federated game launcher/gaming-focused social network similar to Steam. Some parts of it would use ActivityPub (especially public stuff like achievements), others XMPP or something similar. Issues are the question of a copy protection system, and an anti-cheat system. Banning pirated copies of the game from official networks is probably easy even with open source tools, and likely not so controversial. Anything more than that would require more complicated setups, such as a lot of proprietary stuff, not to mention are very controversial, especially with gamers. Anti-cheat systems are also a though issue, likely being the responsibility of the developer, and also there’ a lot of controversy with them with kernel-level anti-cheat systems.

If you thought that was bad, then wait until you see what they did to Kanna…

A lot of creators are thinking like that unfortunately. A lot of leftist YouTubers instead are banking on BlueSky rather than the Fediverse, to the point they sometimes hold giveaways for BlueSky invites, which wouldn’t be a bad thing, if they did mention Mastodon, etc.

No, it’s mostly a different thing.

VTuber means Virtual YouTuber. However, some VTubers are like that. The best among them are like Suris, who makes commentary videos on politics, religion, etc. And then there’s those, who just watch a selection of YouTube, TikTok, etc. videos for funzies, with VShojo (a VTuber talent agency) being a bit infamous for that.

If you knew how big of an overlap between Zionism and Antisemitism there is…

“The answer to the Jewish question is Israel” - wrote a Hungarian far-right blog around 2008-2009. It was an unpopular opinion back then, as Jobbik was a literal Islamophile party, because killing LGBT people and death penalty to robbers, but nowadays it’s a popular sentiment among fascist pretending to be “moderates” by calling themselves “conservatives”. Even Jobbik isn’t that radical anymore, especially compared to both Fidesz (which stole their racist and homophobic ideas, but watered them down) and Mi Hazánk (formed by ex-Jobbik members, has suspicious ties to Fidesz).

Any more modern game suggestion for such purpose?

It’s one thing if you accidentally spilled info on personal stuff you didn’t want to reveal, and it’s another that you pretend you don’t have the terminal horniness to try to please the haters (which you can’t the moment someone leaks a private stream), and to lie to both yourself and the fans (many of which actually liked that fact about you).

Yeah, pretty much.

Cannot really tell you it since it was in private streams (especially not on a public forum), and she’s pretty infamous for changing narrative around herself, then going full denial regarding the past. Some of which is granted since she did things in the past that are under NDA, others were just trying to please the bullies (which she got more thanks to relatively nonexistent moderation), at the cost of her own sanity.

A creator I follow: “Twitter is becoming worse and worse by the day!”

Me: “Come to Mastodon!”

ACIF: “No, that is full of techbros, and which instance do I even choose?”

(At least it’s not as bad as a former favorite VTuber, who after early criticisms of the Twitter takeover and Elon’s personality, decided to “grow up” and like the “person who’s saving the world” (Musk is now a climate change denialist, and I think he’s just a deregulation promise away from announcing the petrol engine Teslas.))
