People like to think that they’ve made some far-reaching change with what little actually happened. The painful truth is: they didn’t. There wasn’t a big hit to the userbase, most people on Reddit already hated moderators and didn’t give a shit if they got removed, and overall people caved far too quickly (how many people folded instantly when their internet moderator position was threatened? (I say this as someone who was one of those moderators that flat out quit everything and nuked my account rather than continuing to toil for free for a corporation that hates me)).
The actually important thing that was accomplished by the protesting was platforms like Lemmy getting enough of a userbase boost to become stable - in the future, Lemmy and others may be able to act as viable alternatives to Reddit, because there’s already a community here (however small). Reddit will continue to enshittify, and people will continue to leave in small numbers that may escalate to big numbers if they commit a truly massive fuckup. The more heavy Reddit users (read: more invested, not necessarily more active) are small in number compared to the vast majority who lurk, don’t give a shit about any ongoing meta-drama, and don’t particularly care about any changes to the UI or browsing experience as long as they can still get an endless feed of memes.
Even if it hurts to realize this, it’s important to make sure people get this message beat into their skulls so that we aren’t stuck with a bunch of Redditors (derogatory) with over-inflated egos that think Reddit will bend over backward to appease them, then cave as soon as they receive literally any pushback from the corporation running the site.
Exactly, you get it!
It has the employee keycard for this level of the dungeon
A gelatinous cube rotates through the area every 8 hours to hoover up any leftover char
Smells like fey propaganda to me
You can’t fool me, trickster

I feel like we scare our DM with this sometimes, when he takes a single player into another room to discuss something private and comes back to an in-character discussion over how easy it would be to poison a major NPC
Appears to no longer be free, so I’m gonna take this down for now. If it was an error and it becomes free again, feel free to repost!
the smell of heavily chlorinated water. i used to spend a heck of a lot of time at the pool when i was a kid, and where i live now there aren’t nearly as many pools, so it’s not something encountered often anymore.
behold, the infinite malignity of the stars!
That’s why it’s important to assess the tone the DM is using when they say that.
Do they sound defeated? You’re probably about to derail away from something planned to something that will have to be fully improvised on the spot, reconsider for sanity’s sake
Do they sound excited? You’re probably about to trigger a really cool trap, full steam ahead
A practiced student of Gunjuration, I see
Any PR statement that includes the words "we hear you" can be safely ignored
The only one I have found was !hades@lemmy.zip, but it isn't very active.
I will buy the explanation that the game is too old to continue to support when they stop adding new microtransactions every six months or so
