Yeah, the curse of success. Everyone seems to be hoping for the swift death of Reddit but I dunno. It getting shittier but still existing might be the best outcome.

This seems like a great place to mention that there is a message board front-end for Lemmy that can make it look like an old phpBB forum:

It's this. I love the idea of running an instance and have considered it many times. But modding the thing is no joke. It's real work that needs to be taken seriously.

Yes, the accessories are a major pain in the butt. I've considered buying a magic trackpad but at this point don't want to accumulate another device with a lightning port.

Hello! This is the one community that I was a bit worried about finding an equivalent of outside of reddit. Hopefully more of us migrate over.

This is similar to my situation. It's out of laziness at this point because my two installs just keep working.

Related, having no trackers show up in TrackerControl for it is also very satisfying.

Yep, it's this. Despite how it seemed in the 2010s investor capital is not free money. Investors want it paid back many multiple times over and they'll risk destroying the underlying product if necessary.

Oh dear, I had forgotten about this...

It's funny how obvious this point is and yet it seems to be getting kind of quietly ignored.

I can't imagine walking around in public with something like this Apple headset on, let alone with the insane price tag... which means that people are definitely going to do it.

Yeah, it's an extremely atmospheric game and the music is such a pivotal part of that. The way it all comes together is amazing.
