Agreed. Everyone is still going to cry foul though. I don't believe genuine cap subversion happens much if at all these days. Maybe a couple of close calls but overall I don't think it would be worth the risk for the individual making the call.

Now we get to play the new round of everyone's favourite gameshow "Injuries Or Shenanigans?"
I agree but the WWE-style hype marketing is how everybody seems to think it has to be done and I’d even bet Du Pleiss expected it. You’re right though. Just about anything would have been better than what actually went down.
As weird and awkward as I found that, it was probably exactly the thing he wanted to cap off his win. Starting the obligatory beef with the champ. It was pretty cringy but kind of par for the course really.
And pretty weird too.
Goddamn he’s a beast.
An expensive API.
If I can get regular interactions here around certain topics like Brisbane, Aussie Politics, and ice hockey then not going back will just be a fairly natural profession for me. Yes, I don't like how they made the API changes but more than that, I'm not going to install their app. Once my 3rd party app of choice stopped working (I use Joey and it's still free and working for now) I'll just fall off.
I've never considered using discord as a replacement for Reddit or Lemmy. I use it all the time but for communicating with people I know or have something in common with in different social circles. You're not wrong but for me it's like saying pillows suck because they don't bang in nails properly.
