Fair point, although [email protected] seems to go fairly well, but the fact that it’s a recent game is probably helping.
For some reason I did not find this community before. I will try to contribute there. Thank you!
Amongst others I’m currently playing Baldur’s Gate 3 in coop mode.
I absolutely love it (I’m also a huge fan of Dragon Age Origins, so no surprise here).
I just wish cut scenes wouldn’t just start playing as soon as one of the players walks into them. Especially since the game is so dense with content (we are still relatively at the beginning though, maybe that changes later on).
I know with most dialogs everybody has the option to listen, but often you’re still going to miss the beginning of the conversation. A “wait for other players” button or something like that would be great.
How do other people handle this?
If you sort by “active” there should be posts with more comments. The “hot” sorting is not really representative for how active users on lemmy are, since it favours younger posts over older posts with lots of comments. You can read the details of the reasoning here .
Let’s all make a test, what does this post look like from your instances:
I agree that the downvotes on your posts in the Jerboa community are rather strange. My theory is that people who downvote your more controversial stuff subsequently go through your whole profile and just downvote everything regardless of content.
Strange, when I look at OPs history, I see quite a few in the negative. Maybe it’s because I’m from a different instance?
Thanks for making me aware of c/worldbuilding! It’s nice to see more niche communities growing.
I hope you get better soon!
The official webapp seems to support it, so I guess it’s just not yet implemented.
Jerboa on the other hand doesn’t seem to like it:
I never really understood it myself. But from what I’ve heard from people who are (or rather were) regular Twitter users, they like to follow celebrities or specific journalists (people who have actual interesting things to say). Those people are often not on Mastodon, though.
I think you make a great point. It’s easier to make an echo chamber in Mastodon/Twitter, since you mostly encounter people you already know (or are connected to via someone you know).
Not that echo chambers are impossible on platforms like Lemmy or Reddit, but I feel like the format of Twitter/Mastodon especially encourages it.
This person will never commit a sex crime, will never say a racist remark, never do anything controversial.
But controversy is good, it generates attention. My fear is that the “optimized” artificial celebrity will be exactly that and it will be a whole new level of shitshow. When you think about it, there are already people who maintain “controversial” public personas for that exact reason (not naming any, since I don’t want to give them more attention), so it’s not even that far fetched.
Cool, I hope this gets mass adopted, so that I can replace my RSS reader with my Mastodon account.
