I can’t help but love when subreddits do this in response to the threat of removing mods if they stay private. I remember there were some that were posting “sexy” pics of John Oliver. iPhone was limited to posting “sexy” pics of Tim Cook. Working with what they have in order to continue their protests. I like it😁
It has malicious compliance written all over it 🙃
This talk of tolerance reminds me of something I read[1]: Tolerance is a peace treaty, not a moral obligation. With this line of thought, the intolerance of intolerance stops being a paradox and makes a whole heck of a lot of sense. Intolerance broke that peace treaty before it even entered into it, IMO.

If people felt they can’t really escape an essential product from a shitty company because of cost, or even convenience, I’d understand.
But this is a video game. Playing video games is my primary hobby. I do it a lot. It’s how I spend quality time with my long-distance partner as well. But it is not essential to my life. We actually have a very viable option of not buying a product from a company helmed by evil, shitty people. It should’ve been more clear-cut.
Ultimately, my disappointment over this runs pretty deep. I will never respect Blizzard as a company. Honestly, I had hoped that MS acquiring them would mean breaking them up and scattering the resources to different departments. The fact that I think MS is the better of the two probably says a lot about my disdain for Blizzard at this point.
Honestly, it’s understandable. Personally, I find it poorly labelled and it’s wedged in between other options of nearly the same size.
Sure!
Go into your Settings, then scroll down until you see this section:
I’ve highlighted the option that you need to change to see your Subscribed communities’ posts. It’s the “Type” setting and you can switch it from “Local” to “Subscribed” there.
Hope that helps!
I don’t think I subbed to anything on those two instances, so I’m not affected at all. I only recently switched to subscribed on the front page too as default so if I missed anything from them, I haven’t noticed. Beehaw have grown large and active enough to make up most of my front page at this point.
I think out of all the federated subs I have, the active an interesting ones to me are coming out of programming.dev. I also sub to a few fediverse related ones, one of which actually posted about Beehaw’s decision to defederate from lemmy.world and sh.itjust.work. There were some takes that miss the point. There were also those who defended Beehaw’s decision too. It was interesting to see the interactions unfold.
The co-op modes are 3 vs 1 and 3 vs AI controlled boss. I only played the vs AI boss, and you all get separate boards until a specific event occurs. Then it merges and everyone gets to put their piece anywhere across the three boards. It only lasts for a little bit, and then the board splits again.
The PvP modes are called:
One thing I found out is that if you want to play against the CPU, you can just load up a local match and add player’s twice on the same controller. The second “adding” will fill the rest with CPUs.
It’s available on both PC and Switch. However, from what I could find out, you need the Switch Online membership to play multiplayer online. But you haven’t mentioned an interest in that so it should fit your requirements really well.
It’s currently 50% off on both Steam and Nintendo eShop
Hope that helps!
I’ll probably take some flak for my answers, but here I go!
Maybe I would’ve loved it if I had got to the game before the fandom madness got to me. But to be fair, it looks like it’s visually designed to tap into that 80’s nostalgia, which would’ve bore me anyway.
I used to enjoy that game (and Destiny). Played it way more than I’d like to admit. But as my anxiety got worse, the more I abhorred the way they force you into matchmaking for PvE content, then give you all kinds of reasons why you have to do those PvE content where you’re forced to play with random players. Then there’s the changes Bungie had made that made the game more and more hostile to me on a mechanics level. Lately, it also feels like they’re treating Destiny 2 as a money-printing machine.
Because Blizzard. I had a whole rant but I don’t want to make anyone uncomfortable. I simply will not give Blizzard any money moving forward.
My thoughts on this is pretty much voiced by some of the others.
For instance, there was a tool that could be used to repost things from a reddit user page. I’ve warned (and the dev have added the warning to the repo itself) that the tool can cause one to be banned. Now the only way I can see that working without inciting a ban is if the tool was triggered by a command, and only took one link at a time. Assuming the mods already gave permission. Something like the wiki bot I’ve seen over on reddit that posted the overview of a wiki link. However, I would rather be able to trigger it with a
!wiki
or something to that effect.The only exception I would take with this is with an automod that reminds users to include specific things in their posts…but I’m also meh about this. If people post without reading the sidebar, they’re probably not going to bother coming back and reading a comment. This issue would be better solved through other means (a reminder of the community rules in the New Post page, after choosing a community).
The bots 100% need to have the bot tag on. No bots impersonating as people, please.
That’s my 2¢ for now.
