This is not a federated bandcamp, it's a platform for bands to do marketing across mutliple various social networks from one web portal.

Godus was a huge disappointment, basically a "what if Populous was a mobile skinner-box clicker with time-gating and micro-transactions?"
Magic Carpet (1994) was a really interesting take on the genre, also by Bullfrog. Imagine the god-sim mechanics of Populous combined with a 3D flight-sim/shooter and you get Magic Carpet.
Their post is specifically about Populous: The Beginning which came out in 1998 and was the first Populous game to use 3D graphics. It has quite different mechanics than the original Populous games, and you can see the DNA of Black & White emerging, with the concept of having a leader character that has an important role in the gameplay.
I've been using Firefox since the beginning, before that Mozilla, and before that Netscape Navigator.
But I think it's finally time to switch to Librewolf.
I don't want digital advertising of any kind, even if my privacy is "preserved" through fancy data-laundering.

Malicious Google Search Ads can now fake the displayed URL to push malware downloads

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/4912712
Most people know at this point that when searching for a popular software package to download, you should be very careful to avoid clicking on any of the search ads that appear, as this has become an extremely common vector for distributing malware to unsuspecting users.
If you thought that you could identify these malicious ads by checking the URL below the ad to see if it directs to the legitimate site, think again! Malware advertisers have found a way to use Google's Ad platform to fake the URL shown with the ad to make it appear like a legitimate ad for the product when in fact, clicking the ad will redirect to an attacker controlled site serving malware.
Don't click on search ads or, even better, use an ad-blocker so that you never see them in the first place!

Free Download Manager site redirected Linux users to malware for years

[SOLVED]: The issue was caused by having "Show read posts" unticked in Settings. This will hide your own posts from you!
I recently made a post^[1]^ to this community about a bug that I experienced and reported.
The post does not appear in the New feed for /c/lemmy_support nor does it appear in my user profile under Posts ^[2]^.
However the post does have 3 replies (from users on multiple different instances) which means that other users can see it across the fediverse, so it's not a federation issue. (Also, my account and the community are both hosted on the same instance - lemmy.ml).
I was not subscribed to /c/lemmy_support at the time I made that post, but I am subscribed now to see if that affects my visibility of this post.
Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding how lemmy works?
Interestingly, if I view my profile while logged out, it does show the posts that I made, but when logged in it shows zero posts in my profile.
