you had the opportunity to name this post "World is Mine" and you missed it.
What does that guy have against eyebrows?
It's mostly the design of the fucking things, I'm sure they'd be more acceptable of they were at least appealing.
(I'm going to be extremely hypocritical here as I do this with my Amiibo) but the culture or keeping it in the boxes never really made sense to me in regards to Funko. What purpose does it really serve when there's a lot of Funko that have little to no value boxed or not? Part of me thinks it's because they're easier to store in the boxes and because you don't actively play or use them (like you would with Amiibo.) But what gets me is the # of Funko collectors that open their figures is microscopic compared to the people who have entire walls lined with boxes of the things.
Another brand I see them compared to often is Nendoroids, which are less TV and movie characters and more anime and video game figures. But very few people keep those boxed, because they're pose-able, therefore more owners purchase them with the intention of displaying them in a variety of poses as opposed to keeping the boxes for anything other than storing the accessories.
Post what you want, comment on everything, make your own community, etc etc etc
I see this all the time like some kind of catch-all for complaints about how effectively dead this platform is.
Not everyone is cutout to pioneer any kind of community, let's just assume that OP takes this advice to heart, if their interest/hobby is niche enough, what's even the likelihood of someone else tumbling upon it? Let alone contributing. Maybe this hypothetical other person wants to contribute but they see that it's only one other person posting anything and they figure, "what's the point?" Maybe they don't agree with OP's opinions and would rather find another "community" where their opinions won't be contested even if it doesn't exist. There are a myriad of reasons why, this is going to happen with every channel, fandom, interest group, etc. it's a natural part of the process. The problem lies in the simple fact that there's fucking no one here, there are enough bodies to come and stay and go and continue the cycle until a community is established.
Yes, there are plenty of channels or w/e they're called here, but most of them are effectively islands in a sea of shit you don't care about (or bots.) They're not managed, and there's nothing going on in them. Why is it up to you the user to stop what you're doing and make something out of nothing? When there are already communities that do exist on other platforms, even if said platforms are trash like Reddit or Xitter are. The majority of users in large communities are lurkers, they might not actively contribute, but they do share content with their own friends or interest groups and that is what's more likely to bring people in, those people might be people that do end up contributing, or they might be more lurkers. But it feeds into the growth of the community either way.
Most of Lemmy doesn't have any of that though, because there's no one here.
Looks more like they want the 'interaction' button closer to your thumb so you press them more often. It's the same shit they're doing with the regular YouTube app, it's more infuriating than helpful as you will accidentally press these things more often than not.
Condescending marketing is such an excellent way to put it.
I've always been bothered by these products that feel like only a horny teenager without a budget would ever want. Like I totally want a water bottle with borderline hentai to take with me everywhere, or some vtuber on my kool-aid powder. But like you said, it works despite feeling like it really shouldn't.
I would assume when you can no longer stand on them.
