That’s kinda funny for me as a former pony fan because that exact bit got turned into a super-popular animation that at least cemented itself in the brains of all my friends.

Thanks, I’ll look into that.

(・_・;)

FWIW, I joined that instance because it had the only RWBY community I could find.

(Also love the FLCL avatar)

Yeah, I’m new (also driven from Reddit after the recent changes) and within like a week I signed up for three different servers, and I’ll probably sign up for more if I can figure out how to navigate servers well enough to find what I’m looking for.

It’s actually rather nice to have separate accounts for different use cases and not mix, say, a memery and general discussion account with an art account.

This is reminding me so hard of an old webcomic I read like a decade ago about this witch girl who fell off her world and discovered hers was one of many flat, triangular worlds in the cosmos but I cannot for the life of me find it.

I may be old, but I’m always reminded of a particular line from The Golden Girls, said by Rose Nylund:

“That’s why the bear and the field mouse can live together in harmony… Of course, they can’t mate or the field mouse would explode.”

Thanks, that makes a lot of sense. In general I don’t use social media the way a lot of other people do and was worried that having a pic show up even those 2-3 times in a row would get on people’s nerves and end up not drawing them to the community.

I was worried about seeming spammy if I was cross-posting immediately.

Legitimately thanks for that. That had stood out to me as “one of these things is not like the others” but my mind only went to sex workers, I did not think at all about men who bought prostitutes.

Why is that your question?

Kinda hate to show my whole ass on this topic, but I lived through this exact thing 5 or 6 years ago when AI Dungeon accused its entire userbase of being pedophiles.

I couldn’t even read past the third sentence and that was the first thing that popped into my head.

I thank you for your contribution to my collection ʚ♡⃛ɞ(ू•ᴗ•ू❁)

I tried to make a resolution this year to not buy any new games when I have all these demos, ROMs (and ROM hacks!), fan games, and otherwise free games so it’s nice getting a recommendation like this.

If anyone here is into puzzle platformer games I strongly recommend Toki Tori 2+. I think it’s come out for just about everything at this point. It’s somewhat billed as a metroidvania but that’s only because of the platformer aspect of it and the large map you have to explore – there’s no combat and the only gates to progression are your own knowledge of the gameplay. You start with your only two abilities and slowly you are introduced to puzzles which give you insight into how those abilities interact with the environment and creatures, until by the end you realize you had ten times the number of options from the beginning as you thought you had.

There’s also an abstract puzzle game I recommend called Hook (here it is on Steam to be sure). It was originally a mobile game, I think. It’s not long, and it’s not difficult, but it’s zen and I personally loved the way it introduced and iterated on concepts.

• catgirl booba

Sorry if this comes off as creepy but I feel the need to ask due to my own disappointing searches lately: do you mean this in like “100% serious the devs let you sex up a catgirl” kinda way, or just a “we have catgirls, everybody loves catgirls” kinda way?

Also, I’m curious how much Morrowind differs from the ones before and after. Because I remember playing many hours of a friend’s Oblivion and ending up souring on the open world enough that I legitimately never want to play Skyrim despite it being the most popular one, and I have Daggerfell and Arena on my GOG account but have never touched, either (I think those may have come free on the account?).

Personally, I recommend Snes9x as an emulator (I also play on linux, Ubuntu if that’s helpful). As for hunting down ROMs, you can often find compilation “best of” packages on Archive.org or if you hunt around for trusted sites (I’m unsure of the rules here if I’m allowed to direct you to said trusted sites or not) I’m sure you can find it.

Officially, Chrono Trigger is on Steam and that probably takes minimal finageling nowadays even on Linux.

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.
