"Gamers" and Gamers are two different things. Only "Gamers" ever said they wanted to boycott games, but much like Reddit's userbase, "Gamers" are only 30% of all Gamers.

Unfortunately, I doubt Reddit would crash. I don't think these online protests have much sway anymore. Twitter's definitely didn't. And ironically, Lemmy might crash a couple times with going over user capacity...
Either way, we ought to work to avoid it. Chop chop, people, content, we need content! Lifeblood of link aggregators is people having topics.
This is the weirdly unlearnable realization that's going to hit third party app reddit users in 6 or so weeks. Because Reddit will just truck along unchanged.
I haven't played a Blizzard game or touched anything even close to related to Battle Net in years. I did my part. In 30 years Blizzard will still be there, and I'll have had no impact, but that won't make me regret a thing. It was just some video games that I'll have missed out on. I'm already missing out on video games as is, every single person is, and time will only increase the amount. Blizzard isn't and will never be worth being "the ones" at the top of that mindspace.

Oh cool, Grime. That's a weird metroidvania to go along the other collection they just sold.
It'll be good practice for when a bunch of third party apps die and some post about "how to go about delete your stuff and registering on this list of alternatives in just a few easy steps" comes up.
And by practice, I mean that the horse corpse is going to be fucking pulverized.
Not really, something about most of the genre doesn't quite appeal to me.
However, I once heard that Universal Paperclips not just had an actual ending, but also an overall point to it, and I decided to give it a go. It was worth it.
Hm ehh umm aktually 🤓 ☝️ you should have said "in geometry"
Oh man, you're getting so many more with this comment. Inflation is crazy nowadays.
Purge? Is this about the porn ban, or something else?
My thoughts:
404: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site
I think the server may be struggling a bit under everyone checking it out.
You'll be exhausted of the style after 1 to go straight into 2. I'd just play 2.
