True, but I figure a year gives me time to see how things pan out. You need some time to find out what the community patches will be like.

Such a pathetic state of affairs.

That's not a bug, it's a feature.

Just Tod Howard streamlining your RPG experience so that he can say "it just works".

I have a personal one year embargo on starfield for this exact reason.

Not touching it t until a year after release, waiting to see if it's fucked or not... Bethesda, eh.

I'm entirely against changing the name because I think that the whole conversation about why is fucking asanine.

But...

If we do change it, can we change it to "Politically Correct Master Race" for a laugh? The acronym would still work... :)

Cool, thanks for explaining.

I doubt they'd be bothered too much by impacting the first part though, they've shown to be entirely willing to lose userbase in order to force their app, so retention probably doesn't interest them there if people start using the RSS feed as a 3rd party app.

I think the crux of it would come more down to whether or not they want to deal with the potential SEO hit that could come from getting rid of it.

Should be interesting to watch how they handle it, at any rate.

On a personal note, I'm pretty much done with Reddit after how they've acted recently, but watching them running around in the road, trying to play with the busses is genuinely fascinating.

Wrong, fuck this guy: :)

Interesting, what does Reddit even use an RSS feed for? I'm trying to figure out why they'd even have that still going today and coming up empty.

Clearly an unjustified ban. :p

That's cool and everything, but if it's scraping the site they'll block that shit straight away, they've already said as much and scraper blocking is relatively easy to do these days.

Good luck though.

I can imagine some alpha-cunt Tate-esque grifter selling courses on how to "Just Shout at People" like it's some sort of magic spell that mysteriously makes everything that you want happen.

Selling it like it's the hidden secret sauce to the universe or whatever, rather than just being a dick to everyone.

Would the community even be any worse, I wonder? :)

Aw stop, you're making me all nostalgic. :D

Place was wild before they cleaned it up for business interests, for sure.

Skyrim moment, right there.

 
 
 

Surprising nobody, Reddit Corp threatening a gaming sub of a fanatically anti-corporate video game doesn't go as they'd hoped.

The mod team have basically decided that "Fuck Reddit" is the way forward, and appear to have practically total support of their entire sub for the choice taken.

Presumably, we're about to get a Cyberpunk community on Fediverse soon. :p

 

Right now it's going to be for Lemmy, but the fediverse is still getting a fantastic app.
