Wow this looks so good.

I know this is not a popular take, but in my opinion The Simpsons Arcade wasn't a very good game. I believe it's purely a novelty product, it falls short when compared to almost any other well known beat'em up from the era.

Awesome!

That was a pretty cool video. It's nice to know some people took (and still do) children's entertainment seriously, and didn't use it just as a rhetorical shield against the critisism of their work. Apart from delivering a good message, the games also seem extremely well made in general.

Thankfully the stuff I'm interested in is very easy for the most part. It's rare for me to struggle with finding something.

Holy crap dude, that's awful. I frequently forget to use my potions of invisibility as well, gotta stop doing that.

That's it, I'm filtering all the posts with "remaster" on the title.

This year the original SMB will be forty years old.

There are alternatives to YouTube though, there are a lot of them. It's just none of them are viable for the viewers because content creators are hell bent on never using anything other than YouTube. To the point I believe they aren't actually bothered by YouTube's problems and only occasionaly complain about it for easy views.

Personally I don't care anymore, YouTube's problems don't affect me. As long as PipePipe works I'm happy. And if it stops working I'll just stop watching YouTube, or just minimize my usage to the extent it's possible.

Lemmy already came such a long way though, when I first tried using it, it was a barren wasteland. Federated social media is the only kind of online platform that can brute force it's way into viability so I'm confident Lemmy will continue to grow or remain big enough to satisfy it's users. It just won't be as big as Reddit.

I really hope Reddit keeps on its road to enshittification so more people realizes what kind of shit hole it is and more open to try the fediverse they would be

I don't see this ever happening to be honest. Considering how much shitter YouTube has been for so much longer I don't believe most people online will ever leave the mainstream platforms.

I believe fediverse will be like Linux. It'll always have a dedicated userbase large enough to sustain itself, but it won't be big like the proprietary platforms. And that's ok.

I don't think compiling from source is easy even on Linux. Whenever I try it whatever program I'm trying to compile just refuses to compile, even though I seem to have all of the necessary programs for it. I can't recall successfully compiling anything other than suckless tools, which have basically no dependencies.

Isn't AnimeBytes one of the hardest private trackers to get into?
