I’ve only ever played 3 and I really liked it when I did. Sad that one doesn’t get talked about much cause the art style is my favorite of the whole series I think.

It definitely had its fair share of batshit insane puzzles, but overall it’s a great game.

Now you’re speaking my language 🥢

See my other reply

Yeah many Asian cuisines are great for me (especially the ones with primarily rice/sweet potato noodles). Mexican is also pretty easy.

I’m lucky in that neither allergy is super serious, so I don’t have to avoid soy sauce or butter. Milk fucks me up though, and bread/pasta.

Gluten free has also come a long way since I was a kid, and since it’s only cows milk I can still eat goat or sheep cheese. Sadly all of that is really expensive in the US for some reason. I was super annoyed when I went to the rural UK and found that goat and sheep cheese was exactly the same price as cow cheese there.

Taquitos are a go. I’m allergic to wheat and cows milk. Basically Italian food is out entirely (tragic I know)

I’m allergic to it 😔

It would definitely be ice cold, not fire. Smh

I think you’re spot on with those hurdles. I’m somewhat techy (not nearly as much as many on here), and even I found it to be a major turn off for a long time before I finally decided to figure it out.

The way I would approach this if I was trying to improve it would be to create a way for people to essentially skip the instance selection process. Perhaps instance owners could opt in to this pool of “open servers” let’s call them. The user would create an account on a neutral website created for this onboarding purpose, and by default there would be a checked box for “automatically select server”. It would sign them up for an instance based on their IP address and the size of the instance to try and spread out population a bit.

If you want more control, you uncheck the box and it gives you more things to select from like region, population size, and anything else relevant, and then gives you a list of servers fitting your criteria and you pick the one you want.

In terms of variety of communities it isn’t better, but the hope is over time people will continue to come over here as reddit decays and eventually it’ll catch up.

I left reddit when they killed the 3rd party app I used. I didn’t want to switch and I ended up here. in my opinion Lemmy still has a long way to go to be as good as what I left, but I don’t want to support reddit anymore and I find it to be good enough here to still be enjoyable. I can still look at memes, and there’s still some good discussion to be had.

The biggest thing Lemmy is missing is niche communities and a broader and less techy audience. I think both of those will happen overtime if the platform keeps growing. Crossing my fingers we get there.

I can’t think of how you would enforce it either, but I do think there’s value in putting a line in the sand. It makes it clear that yes, this is crossing a line into illegal activity. Will everyone care and stop? No. I do believe some will, though, as a result of this.

The more big words you know, the smarter you are, duh.

No no no, see, your voice is only valuable for a one time sale these days. Stop being greedy! /s

Seems like quite a level headed approach to it. I’m always a little leery of these types of systems but they explain it well and I think their reasoning makes sense.

If the philosophy behind the platform proves true, it will just kill those instances.

I understand what you’re saying and I still think it would be easy to be confused. It’s ok that you don’t think it is, this is just a second opinion.

Not OP, but I think it’s fairly confusingly worded because clear implies empty, but the intent seems to be to imply lots of choices.

I had the same experience when I recently had to get a new phone. Stock launchers have improved a lot.

Ask em when you get there. Not trying to be snarky, that’s genuinely the best way to do it because everyone is different.

I think the opposite. It’s inevitable that porn will eventually be removed entirely to please prudish investors.

Oh wow I didn’t know that. That makes it make a lot more sense.
