The only game I've played that actually has 100+ hours of quality content is Persona 5.

Every other single player game trying to give me more than ~30 hours of stuff to do ended up being a chore.

I think part of it is that there is an ideal time commitment for story driven games and it is between 5 and 30 hours. It's similar for movies, where the ideal range is 90 t o150 minutes. There can be exceptions, made by particularly skilled people, but just because I enjoy the 4-hour cut of Return of the King does not mean I want the next Marvel or DC movie to be that long.

Not to defend the scumbag or this scammy “web3” nonsense, but working for studios not part of the AMPTP during a strike does not necessarily make someone a scab. If the studio in question has their own contract with SAG then it’s 100% kosher.

This is why a lot of “indie” productions from studios like A24 are going forward while the rest of Hollywood is stuck doing nothing.

Assuming you can find one that actually does what you want

Memmy is an iOS app so no Google needed.

The whole reason for this big migration is Reddit taking away mod tools. If you think Lemmy isn’t going to support things like this then you are in for a bit of a surprise.

I don’t like having cavities.

I don’t want to lose most of my teeth and have to wear dentures in my 60s.

The cleaning I get every 6 months is able to remove crap that regular brushing and flossing doesn’t.

It was because lemmy.world was experiencing explosive growth and did not have a good mechanism in place to limit spam and troll accounts. This combined with Lemmy's still infant moderating tools made it difficult for Beehaw to contend with the influx of lemmy.world users who were harassing beehaw users.

A mutual decision was made between both beehaw and lemmy.world to temporarily defederate while the moderation tools are worked on. They fully intend to re-federate once these tools are in place, as both instances have a fairly similar attitude towards harassment and hate speech.

There was no disagreement between the admins of beehaw and lemmy.world

99% of my play is docked and I don’t like that half the cost of my console went into making it portable rather than faster.

Reddit:- You Google Reddit and your first result is Reddit.com. You click the link and are presented with the front page. You from scroll from a few hours and end up signing up and staying.

I don't think this is the path most people take to becoming new Reddit users.

I think most people end up using new social media sites because they get linked to content already on a given site that they like. This could be from friends sharing links, or through Google results from the site.

If 94% of traffic from a given source is malicious, and I don't have a good way of differentiating the 6% that is good, I might just end up blocking 100% to keep my site stable.

Just another example of bad actors making it so we can't have nice things.

When you make a community whose key promise is providing a safe space for marginalized groups, is it not your duty to actually make good on that promise?

To Beehaw, following through on that is more important than growing as fast as possible. People who want growth at all costs shouldn't use Beehaw.
