True, there will be a lot of self-selection here. So maybe my theory is unfounded

The sucky answer is if lemmy gets popular it’ll just be Reddit without the ban lists

If you give up waiting for the parent comment to respond and begin testing soap, let us know the results.

Exactly, they made a big stink that they were going to start testing them and making them live, but we heard absolutely nothing saying that any tests were successful. That sounds like it would have been good propaganda if it actually was possible.

Dogma was awesome too. Not every movie has to be the best movie ever to hold a place in your heart, this reads really cynical

I teach my kids about the cults of personality that exist in the world, and they’re not allowed to watch any videos with a face in the corner.

This is what I see suggested every time this meme is reposted, so I guess that’s the right answer

It’s just an opinion post, i phased it as such.

I don’t even think his nukes work anymore tbh. They had some sort of arming/testing last year and we heard literally nothing from it. No test runs no trials no success stories.

Oh! I thought it was saying that the Angels were what we need to be scared of

Or maybe the biblically accurate angels all have really good eye spots as well that we just assumed were eyes and they are trying to scare off something even worse.

Many games launch with improper implementations, causing problems. Is not denuvos fault but it is one more thing to go wrong

Resources used for implementing denuvo and funds for ongoing support take away from the game development itself creating the possibility of less of a game. Denuvo is a subscription, so companies have to keep paying for it. Now they have to charge more for DLC to recover those costs. In both situations, the gamers suffer more than the companies.

DRM in general means you can’t own that thing. Steam is easily cracked if steam went out of business but firaxis or denuvo? If they go under without patching the game then it’s dead forever.

I don’t know if anyone has done a study on denuvos effect on game sales, but there have been many studies on piracy itself that show not only does piracy not steal sales, it helps promote good games through word of mouth and the demo->purchase pipeline where users want online features after trying the game. Bad games don’t get any boost but i think civ7 is safe there.

The most recent Futurama series ending was 10/10.

They brought it back again but whatever that show is goated

On mbin you’ll still see them, just in a separate section. And that’s only my perspective too, communities you join might dislike my methods entirely.

Only for streaming and I’m just brainstorming, I don’t actually know how it would work. I’m just thinking about what mbin needs to be truly next generation rather than just a Reddit replacement

Reddit didn’t replace anything directly, it innovated. And whatever comes after will have to innovate as well

From a moderator perspective it seems essential to have a microblogging section, because otherwise people make entire posts for simple questions or personal achievements. That plagues Reddit, drags down the whole site.

I still think it’s missing something though, streaming video service support. Mbin’s idea of combining known socials works great in that respect. Text and image, but needs video support. P2P maybe, no storage needed.
