Damn. My sympathies, friend. Life dealt you a bad hand and society said “get wrecked” instead of helping you fix it. Hope I didn’t offend. 🫂 🫶

I’m sure you just made a typo, but I am chuckling to myself at the thought that you are walking around being blind specifically because it’s against the law and not because of any biological problems. Like “fuck the police, I’m throwing away my glasses!”

Lemme (heh) know if you ever figure it out – I’m very new here and apart from doing the legwork of finding communities to subscribe to I don’t know what else there is

I think most of this is spot on, but the hearsay was that the subreddits who did participate in the shutdown were threatened with an ultimatum, which while I don’t think is possible to prove either way, hints that it would have happened regardless. Tho I’m usually all-too-ready to don my tinfoil hat when it comes to reddit trying to look appealing to investors; I witnessed a number of hentai/porn subreddits get banned and users actively request to become new mods only to be ignored.

Even if you discount the mods, there’s definitely a certain inertia you see in groups like this (like what’s going on with Discord right now) – people don’t want to leave in part because they’ve got their little in-group and don’t want to have to go through finding or founding a new group elsewhere. I think it’s particularly prevalent with those niche communities that don’t ever really break containment; the community would already be small enough without fracturing to the eight winds. I’m liking Lemmy so far but as I am trying to drum up activity in one of those niche communities (RWBY), it’s kind of disheartening how little relative traffic there is across the place.

I would go for something like debauchery or degeneration, tho the latter has kinda been completely subsumed by horni culture (tho TBH I like the juxtaposition with “generation” as an genAI term)

Also I can’t help but give you a slow clap for that username, my friend ( ಠ_ಠ)ﾉｼ You got me.

Double-posting b/c I don’t think I have the ability to tag you on Lemmy but if you or pelespirit need more CC0 images of animals specifically, check out inaturalist.org. User-submitted wildlife images and you can filter by license including CC0 (public domain) under [more filters]. There are currently 1,892 observations under [Voles, Lemmings, and Muskrats] that are public domain.

You could try 12ft Ladder – looks like the .io site went down but first result when I searched the web was “5 alternatives that work” from a tech-focused website. I personally wouldn’t bother since the OP didn’t actually provide a source other than the WSJ’s homepage.

Ironic since this is a fully SFW server (I like it here, it’s the only place I saw a RWBY community, but yea)

It’s math like this that convinces me that you can contribute more to the ecosystem by paying even a single dollar to a creator’s Patreon (even when Patreon takes 30% off the top) and watching w/ adblock than paying a monthly subscription to YT.

Hot take: visually this looks awful in comparison to the original.

I think you shouldn’t discount the immense amount of cultural pride that many people put in their region’s cuisine – not even just national pride, even, as many groups will look down on each other despite being from the same country and eating the same foods just because they see the other as preparing it “the wrong way”.

Didn’t even know proton had a chatbot, tho offhand I can’t remember if I’ve set up a paid account yet. Been too busy and mentally strained the last couple of years to even keep up with all my emails, I’ve still got >100 unreads (not the important ones).

Also I appreciate the bit of self-awareness in your rant. People have become so dogmatic nowadays there’s not a lot of that going around. Also glad to see someone else pumping DDG.

Tho I myself have just made the jump to Lemmy specifically because old.reddit has become locked to lurkers. I even still have a reddit account (which admittedly I hadn’t really used to do more than vote and search for subreddits since the API changes) but I’ve never wanted to use it on my phone so now the mobile reddit experience for me is completely blocked off. Just kinda feels like invoking old.reddit now after they locked it behind an account is a bit off the mark.

Well, played, my friend, well played.

Seconding this suggestion as I’ve actually played it. The scares are really low-key, too (more on the psychological side) so even my little baby ass was able to get through it alright.

Considering you’re specifically asking for horror games, I would suggest clarifying what you mean by “no nsfw” – because there’s going to be a lot of horror games that don’t contain any nudity/sexual elements that would still qualify as NSFW due to gore, body horror, and other disturbing imagery.

There was one (1) spot that got me seriously stuck in Portal 2, I think about halfway thru? Here’s hoping you can work through it better than I did (I had to look up the solution).
