Reddit can take all their fake and inflated as fuck engagement numbers and shove it up their arse, for all I care.
Play on r/place, don’t play on r/place, doesn’t matter. Lemmy is big enough that it is its own thing now. People that want something different will come. As much as it would be nice to have essentially a crowd-run ad campaign for Lemmy, I respect anyone committing to not visiting Reddit again for any reason.
The best way for lemmy to grow is slow and steady, eating reddit’s lunch over the next few months to years. It won’t happen overnight, and we don’t want it to.
Your username growing into this sentiment is exactly how I feel. I was super pissed a couple weeks ago, now it’s just meh, not my pile of shit to deal with anymore.
They expected everyone to be so mad at Spez that they ran to the subreddit to show their displeasure, thus making it seem like Reddit engagement is doing just great so it looks real nice for the IPO. You guys really need to just stop paying attention to Reddit at all.
People should really use his actual name, “Steve Huffman”. Being called an asshole by his username is just reinforcing his username and thus Reddit. Use his name so that when he goes to his rich-guy places to hang out with fellow rich guys who don’t use Reddit, they ask him why everybody is saying he’s an asshole.
I put the icon for one of the Lemmy apps (don’t recall which I went with actually, tried all I could find and chose a fave) on my phones quick bar, and then edited the icon and replaced it with the bacon icon :)
It’s the same icon I’ve had for a decade, in the same place it’s always been, it just opens a different app now.
If anything is gonna convince people who are pissed at reddit to finally jump ship, I figure insulting them and general asshattery from the alternative is definitely gonna do it. I mean, being a dick about things has never, in the history of ever, backfired.
I’d be curious to know your experience with that game. Me and some friends have been playing it and the grind is just insane, to the point that I can’t really enjoy it because progress feels so glacial. Whenever people speak positively about it I feel like I must be missing something.
I picked Driller initially and stuck with it. Progression felt good. Once I got a promotion I tried out other classes, and slowly made them to promotion level. I think the main thing you’re missing though is that DRG isn’t really meant to be a game based around progression. Unlocking new weapons and overclocks helps, sure, but most of DRG’s progression to me is learning how to manage your resources effectively and mastering how to take down different kinds of bugs. Also, make sure you’re doing assignments! Otherwise, you’re not actually progressing beyond leveling up, and so progress will feel glacial.
I won’t link it because it’s a reddit link. But there’s damning footage of large pixel circles of white or random colors spreading at the same instant, in a way that wouldn’t be possible by regular users. And these pixels don’t have an attached username, it’s like the canvas has been totally reset. Bots would show a new username.
