🎶being a pirate is all right with me🎶

In all honesty it seems you just hate stories and I mean thats ok because gameplay, ascetic, and community are all features that become reasons for people to love games and usually its a combo of multiple different features that cause that game to be a favorite but why are you being condesending about basic plot lines? A good story needs a template in order for it to grow into something more and i honestly cant think of a book that doesn’t fall into these catagories even “House Of Leaves” falls into it IIRC

Yes tropes exist and can be a sign of bad writing but, tropes can be done extremely well and create more then what was there before which is a sign of great writing.

Its difficult personally to believe its a myth due to my memory of the Twitter buyout where I recall the main struggle being that the CEOs of Twitter couldn’t deny Elon purchasing Twitter due to the threat of lawsuit from their shareholders, and after announcing his plans to purchase Twitter for the inflated price Elon couldn’t back out due to the same threat however I am open to the idea that I could of been misled on that situation.

As for the why of a myth like that circulating I doubt its due to malice and more due to misunderstanding as Ive always understood that any wording made on a legal case could be used as precedent. It could also fit well with people rationalizing why companies seek record profits while underpaying workers for their labor.

If anyone could clarify the Twitter situation without sucking off elon it would be appreciated

Ill miss RIF, im curious if RIF had a different algorithm or something cause from what im reading there was a lot of awful going on with reddit and I saw nearly none of it.

Its so weird that the alt right hasn’t tried to seize Lemmy yet from my experience it was always the immediate fate of Reddit alts in curious if the alt right is too busy over at truth social (or rumble) oh could we please get a youtube alt next that would be so great

I have to agree with you on that I saw a comment earlier about the people who left Reddit being a loud minority but something feels off about that

Lemmy’s community feels so familiar I sadly just can’t find the right words to describe it though
