I just finished it yesterday. Verdict? Super fun, gameplay is great, looks beautiful, has a retro vibe. The story... is okay.

"It’s communist propaganda to point out the vast inequality that continues to worsen."

No you’re right, everything is just peachy.

Will that be before or after Jared brings peace to the Middle East?

"It's good that Saudi Arabia is causing our media to censor itself because we invaded Iraq."

If that's not the point you're conveying, then whatever point it is that you're feebly TRYING to convey is falling flat on its face.

You're right! We SHOULD get rid of all health and sanitation laws. Why even try?

If you have any specific hobbies / fandoms / communities you're interested in, you could see if there are instances specific to those interests you could migrate your account to. The local feed and local hashtags are sometimes way more interesting if you're on an instance you jive with.

rather than push back.

Elon Musk owns Twitter. Every single time a person tweets some kind of "push back," it's just more activity on the platform that Elon Musk owns.

Question for you: Would you say all the pushback has been working? Because it seems like every comment out of Elon Musk's mouth is worse.

I have (had?) plenty of friends on Twitter who loudly proudly boycotted the Harry Potter game due to JKR's comments about trans people.

But they’ve stayed on Twitter despite its horrible owner and how he runs things.

I’m willing to give a pass to creators who make a living off their online audience. If the audience went off Twitter, so would they.

Everyone else, though? I don’t ever care to hear about what they're boycotting again if they can’t pull themselves off Twitter.

People are also not allowed to say the word "cisgender” over there

Do you know what the format of the data they send is? Would be interesting to write a script to allow someone to recreate their content somewhere else if they were so inclined.

The Board and Investors want a big IPO - that is their goal. Charging developers for API access was one tactic to help clean up the books in service of the big IPO.

But in pursuing the API pricing so aggressively, Spez has put Reddit in a negative light in the press. He's driven users to other platforms. And he has continued to poke and prod at the userbase to the ultimate harm of Reddit. The value that would have been gained from charging API access pales in comparison to the value that has been lost over the last couple weeks.

The money people want their money, and Spez has reduced the amount of money they will be receiving.
