Lemmy.world becoming the default Lemmy instance, and it growing to outsize all other instances is a danger: it makes the Fediverse centralized, easy to take down and easy to take over.

I think the long-term sales of the games you just cited is at odds with your opinions. At this point, Bethesda has made a name for themselves with janky, bug-riddled games with big story, that excel at giving the players a feeling agency. At this point that is Bethesda's brand image and they seem to be just going with it. Like why would they bother spending more money to fix bugs and exploits that have become a signature to a lot of people? Also it's costs them less to leave their titles unpolished and let the modders fix it.

With what power? If the Green party continues doing nothing, gaining no local seats, no congressional seats, then how are they protecting environmental policy?

Nicotine-free vapes still develop the oral habit in children and has been shown to be an easy entry into other vapes. Also propalene glycol really isn't great for your lungs, and constantly sucking on a vape that uses it does negatively effect your breathing.

The mod logs don't lie and LWA has responded in this thread acknowledging the issue.

The news@lemmyworld mods ~~admins~~ have been banning people for criticizing the MBFC bot, so yeah, let's just keep using bans until this place looks like Reddit again.

Edit: mods, not admins

Say anything negative about that stupid mbfc bot in !news and you'll get a ban.
