  • That’s fair about the staying power, but I prefer playing Multiplayer so the PS2 and 1 never hit the same (I did play them a lot as well though - I had the OG Gran Turismo, Tenchu: Stealth Assassins, Duke Nukem: Time to Kill, Metal Gear Solid and a bunch of others for PS1, and I had NFS: Underground 2, Gran Turismo: A-Spec, Medal of Honor: Frontline and a bunch of others for PS2 as well). I do respect how well they did, but I really enjoy multiplayer (and the PS2 multiplayer didn’t do it for me)



  • I just want to say I completely agree with you. If we want to withstand the companies at the helm of the Internet right now, we have to make it impossible for them to extinguish us. I think that’s what we’ve essentially done with ActivityPub, and frankly I don’t see any way they can try to take us down by normal means.

    I mean, what are they gonna do? Pull the VERY loyal people from kbin.social or Lemmy.world into Threads? Or the people from Mastodon?

    It’s safe to say the people who have been here 5 months (or even more!) are not really keen on using Facebook 2.0, and we aren’t really the demographic they’re targeting. We also aren’t exactly the biggest demographic, with the Fediverse being a couple million people afaik.

    I think if anything we have the most to GAIN from federation. People will know about our little public ad-free corner of the Internet. It’s downright silly to throw up pitchforks just because “Meta bad” because - at the end of the day - HOW will they destroy the Fediverse?
