I wonder how many of them are just bots tbh

Cause the game is pretty inherently political. The setting is a farcical fascist govt...

What review page are you talking about??

I went to check out the reviews and all I see is people complaining about Sony blocking out so many countries. I don't see a single "woke" complaint.

Are you sure you're not just hearing that people have complained and then assuming they actually did?

Fan base isn't regressing - there's just an increasingly polarized contingent that won't stop wailing about every snub.

Overall the gaming fan base is growing because of this embracing of diversity.

It's the inverse that is true actually -

As Lemmy becomes more popular it will drift from being so tech focused.

Many popular sites gradually drifted off of tech focus as their user base grew. R*ddit is a prime example of how a very nerdy niche site grew and shifted to be popular (sorta) organically.

I do think that for all the hullabaloo about Ellen Pao and banning a bunch of subreddits - that actually did more to open the place up to users who were otherwise driven away by /r/FatPeopleHate and /r/Jailbait being on the front page all the time.

If Lemmy were to change to attract users it would likely be from increased defederation with instances that are less palatable to mainstream society.

Reading any ACOTAR (a court of mist and fury, listed above) is such an enormous waste of time though.

Like if you want to enjoy some smut go for it but it's really devoid of any merit besides being erotic.

Claiming you're reading when it's actually ACOTAR is like saying you're watching cinema when it's Backdoor Sluts 8.

You might be right technically but nobody would agree with you.

And you're running corporate kernel level security software on your encrypted Linux server?

Not OP here and I'll vote for her in the election 100% but the concerns I've seen raised most often are:

She was a cop and her history reflects the history of being a cop. Being a prosecutor means that you're pressuring innocent people into jail time plea deals and using cops to back up your arguments all the time. She's the epitome of back the blue.

That makes her a great choice against the "Law and Order" fascist felon at least.

This outage is probably costing a significant portion of Crowd strike's market cap. They're an 80 billion dollar company but this is a multibillion outage.

Someone's getting fired for this. Massive process failures like this means that it should be some high level managers or the CTO going out.
