I guarantee you it means something to the residents of those six houses.

It’s easy to lose track of individual humanity at the scale of a war, but this victory is the one these people will always most remember when they think of the tide turning. Their lives are worth something.

Your head is so far up your own propaganda I can’t even tell where you’re trying to say here.

I honestly had a blast learning Rust. Haven’t gotten a chance to do much with the language but it definitely shifted the way I think about coding in general.

To me the trick isn’t consuming similar communities, but cross pollinating to them. Like if you want to comment on a new game trailer do you copy and paste the same thing into ten threads?

The game is pretty stable at this point. I personally loved it, but it helps to set your expectations. It’s a story-driven game with diamond-style story branching ala the Witcher 3, with a heavy focus on narrative. The world is an awesome backdrop, but it is more backdrop than simulation. It’s not GTA.

Given how massive this overhaul looks, I would honestly wait for the 2.0 patch. It looks like it’s going to address a lot of the shortcomings of the mechanics.

They’re doing a big tour across a bunch of countries to show the game off to the public soon, so we won’t have to take their word for long.

My guess is that are doing it specifically because they know there is very little trust. I think it’s probably a good sign for the state of the expansion as well.

I’ve never had a bad experience on release with any of the Bethesda games I’ve played. Morrowind, Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3, and Fallout 4.

I didn’t play 76, and like – fair game.

But for the games I’ve played it’s never been more than visual / physics bugs, or script events not triggering and doing a quick load to fix it.

Most importantly, I’ve always had a blast, even with the rough edges. As long as it seems like the devs gave it an honest go, are fixing bugs the players trigger, and the company didn’t lie about the state of the game, it’s just a much better experience to have a little grace around the launch of an ambitious game.

Wow. I had not done the math. That’s an obscene amount of money. 1000 requests is nothing for a web app like Reddit, even with agreeing over-fetching.

The crazy thing is that they might have gotten away with it if they had structured it right. Set up the infastructure themselves to charge the individual user directly for their API use rather than the App creators. Carve out exceptions for moderation APIs and known moderation bots. I probably would have paid a few bucks a month to keep using Relay. I would have grumbled about it… but I would have done it.

Now I’m just gonna leave, lol.

Thanks for the swift response!

Is there a guide for how to register on multiple Lemmy instances? I am registered here, but noticed that I can’t subscribe to communities on other instances? I assume I need to register there as well, but how do I get my subscriptions on both instances to funnel into the same place?

Thanks! Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this

Yeah, I understand the underlying reason for doing this. I just think they’re killing the chicken to get the eggs. Rather than make a little less money on me (but still make money) they are going to lose a user completely who regularly comments and posts

That’s hilarious. What a cluster. If they want more performant API calls than maybe they should expose something like a graphql endpoint. Otherwise there’s only so much you can optimise through a REST interface.

The thing is I don’t even use Relay for Reddit to avoid the monitization. I use it because it’s the best Reddit experience out of all the apps I’ve tried, especially compared to the official offering.

If they wanted to make money off of me, they could just add a charge to use the API at the user level. I would pay $5/month to Reddit in order to use the API, including through third-party apps. Like, I get it, go have to keep the lights on and I get a lot of value out of the site.

They’re just going about it all wrong, and users like me are going to end up not using the site anymore.
