Using the Steam refund system more actively has helped me a lot in this regard. At this point I refund about 80% of my purchases - simply because a lot of the games do not engage me after the first 40 minutes.

I’m so happy I stated using the Steam refund system more actively. At this point I refund about 80% of my purchases - simply because a lot of the games do not engage me after the first 40 minutes.

Absolutely! I’ve been contacting the national directorates and Very Serious Organizations in my country asking if they have strategies in place for effectively communicate with the public, in light of Twitter requiring an account to read its content (this happened some weeks ago). I always link to other public bodies or Very Serious Organizations that have done it. Same goes for political parties.

Make them understand that there is a need for reliable communication, and show them that others are doing it as well.

We need to remember that Mastodon (and Lemmy for that Cass) still are pretty niche things. Every example of Very Serious Organizations that joins lowers the barrier of entry for the next Very Serious Organization.

Yes this is my thinking as well. Before reddit I was more than happy participating in forums on subjects I enjoyed. I had want I wanted. I almost have that here as well. That’s success in my eyes.

Okay so I see all this talk about ducky printers but if I want one that’s not trying to guck me over which would that be?
