Great games feel fewer and farther between after this long. Yes, you get a Witcher 3, or Baldur’s Gate, or Zelda sometimes. But really, and it sounds fucked up to frame it this way, they’re merely excellent. And I’ve played a lot of excellent games, so unless one is on a tier never before experienced by anyone on Earth, eventually things feel less special for some reason. It’s fair to say that some games are innovative, but they are very few. The best we usually get is stuff we’ve seen before, just insanely well polished/tweaked on ocassion. Ultimately, there’s not a lot new if that makes sense. It’s sort of a been there done that vibe, and it’s probably just a sign you’ve played too much good shit. Like an addict that has hit the same pipe too many times lol.

Honestly just seems like a tee up so the government can “persuade” these people to kill themselves. It’s a bold strategy, Cotton.

Could be a dry run for when life gets so bad in the next few years that people just look for the exit.

Has to be breaking a rule by this point

The design is still horrendous. I was hoping for a total do over.

It has been predicted for years that the Internet would split and I’m all for it at this point.

Trouble completely avoiding it? Yes. I exclusively treat it as a search engine / knowledge resource now though, which I think is reasonable since it’s a part of the Internet.

However, I contribute absolutely nothing to it and am now always signed out. Over time this would lead to it becoming an archive while decentralized platforms become the real meeting ground where new knowledge is accumulated. It’s a long-term play. There’s so much information on Reddit that it would be foolish to completely write it off - this is going to take a really long time, but anyone here knows that.

It took years to build Reddit to its glory and it will take years here - at least there are some awesome apps already and it feels like there is a good head start this time. We should not call out people for using Reddit for information, but we should encourage people to contribute to a more sustainable, community run alternative.

Ya, this guy is toast. He just told the world he thinks his product sucks - the sane know he’s wrong at least.
