I found this which has registrations and posts for mastodon / fediverse over hour / day / week / month but it breaks it out by instances so can be a bit difficult to tell overall. Here's mastodon in the last 7 days for example.

Wait, what? I need more information. You probably mean loose leaf but I guess you could just cut open a used bag? But surely that's like, one bag a month or something. I drink like 6 cups of tea a day, how long does it take before you can add more? (I had this problem with composting when I learned I could add like a small peel per week and I was like... I generate 10x that per day.)

The article does a good job of summarizing everything they changed and improvements, but I feel like pcgamer's headline is sort of leaving off a "... after reducing scope". For instance, the multiplayer mode that had been announced before launch. I also think I read they planned on multiple DLCs but they reduced that down to just this one? Regardless all my friends seem to enjoy the game so I'm sure it's a fun game to play

Progression and loot reduced by 30%, level capped at 40, and can't join guilds. Doesn't really feel like they made it a viable option to play the game. Though I can't say for sure how bad those handicaps are, I never got the game due to the forced PvP and the militant community.

This is what gets me. If they were forced to have load bearing pillars there, I could at least try to understand making use of the space. What is even the point of these walls?!

One thing I've been told in the past is that with public voting records you at least get an idea of if brigading is happening, where it's coming from etc. Though maybe that's just a giant list of randomly generated usernames but if it's coming from a single instance there are at least actions to take from that.

Wait the suggestion of Jet Set Radio made me think

  • Gran Turismo
  • Twisted Metal
  • Cool boarders

Now those are some classics, time to break out the PS2

Definitely curious to see if we experience waves similar to how mastodon does every time elon says something stupid. I'm not sure we will, though. With the entire reddit gold thing I was expecting people to throw their arms up about the reversal of stuff people paid money for but it seems like they just accepted it and moved on. Perhaps the people that remain will stay there no matter what. Regardless I think how things are going here are still promising.

It also says FY which I assume means Fiscal Year. It seems like Microsoft's fiscal years end in June and start in July based on browsing a few investor pages (like this one saying fourth quarter ended in June). Not that that completely solves for the time difference but wanted to mention it

I bounced to mint cinnamon as soon as this was announced. I miiggghhhtttt switch to arch as cinnamon hasn't quite made me feel like I'm able to do what I want, but I plan to at least try LMDE before that

Depends on if gaining a yogurt eating habit is defined as being a better person or not xP

I do think your heart is in the right place trying to find and discuss engagement issues in the threadiverse. That's obviously been a common complaint people have posted about and I can see you believe strongly about this.

I think I just disagree with the issue at hand, or at least that there is a single one and that this solves it. To give an anecdotal example: I make a post around every day on kbin.social that gets 0 likes, 0 dislikes, and 0 comments, in other words no engagement. You might say this is due to it being difficult to find! Well, it actually is! So much so because it doesn't even federate out to lemmy.world, lemm.ee, fedia.io, etc. I check remote instances and my posts never federate anywhere. If you look at my profile from your instance, lemmy.world, it would seem I barely have any posts, but on my home one I have quite a few.

This is just one example of course, but from my perspective, the major issues we have right now are technical ones, and I'd like to see those fixed before trying to focus on social ones.
