I just finished Sanderson's Secret Project 3 (I know some people consider the title a spoiler).

Let me start by saying when I was about 20 chapters in, a little under half way, I was considering giving up and moving on. The writing was good, loved the world building and the mystery, hated one of the main characters. They were grating, annoying, and treated the other character in what I thought was a completely unbelievable and obnoxious way.

Now that I've finished it, it might be one of the best cosmere novels. Certainly one of the best non-series novels. The ending was perfect, the characters grew on me and became amazing. Loved it.

Really wish it was BR starts, but I'll take what I can get.

The three dot menu in the top bar has a scroll to top button in it

I had two instances logged in, lemmy.world and beehaw.org. I was able to fix lemmy.world by removing it and logging back in.

Beehaw.org seems to be down and if it was the first one liftoff tried loading nothing would load. I had to just remove it fully from liftoff

Are you inputting the correct lemmy instance?

But who gets to curate that? How who has to sift through all of the 8000 instances and figures out the topic of each of likely thiusands of communities?

Automated sounds as though it's purely based off of the community name? How does it figure out the difference between table top gaming or video gaming or even slots/gambling?

What about football? American or the rest of the world?

What about politics? Is it left wing or right wing?

Seems like a cool idea at first, but when you get into the weeds it becomes a pretty complicated issue.

Yeah, I think it was mentioned in an interview I read somewhere. Still looks like an amazing game as long as it lives up to the trailer

This game takes place between Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, so unfortunately Maul is long dead, since Obi-Wan killed him before A New Hope.
