Lately I've been kinda disappointed by RPG/JRPGs and I need some recommendations.

Newer RPGs that I've enjoyed (although writing is underwhelming on some):
- Chained Echoes
- Citizen Sleeper
- Disco Elysium
- Octopath Traveler I & II
- Live A Live
- Persona 4 & 5

Please no action adventure/hack & slash/souls games! Also, I grew up on 90s RPGs so I've already played through the Chrono, Mana, Final fantasy, Lufia, and the Golden Sun series.

It's exhausting to see people (and especially server admins like @stux, @dansup @Gargron among others) fall for the same trick again and again. I'm done with corporate controlled internet, and wish others could see the value in keeping them out and letting online spaces be entirely community run.

(I mean, there isn't a dearth of folk here who have been enticed by Bluesky, which doesn't have a real "protocol". It's just a shiny internet pebble like hundreds of others).

"But this will help fedi grow!"

Just no. 🤦
Not everyone here is interested in the sheer quantity of content on their platforms, a lot of which is toxic. Most of us are doing just fine here.
Secondly, what motivation does anyone one using the Fb/Instagram's new site have to make an account here?
THEY ARE A BILLION DOLLAR COMPANY WHO CAN AFFORD TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DEVELOPERS. They will inevitably have shiny new features which will keep their own users there, and might even entice some folk here.

"But I'd be able to connect with my friends and family who still have accounts on Instagram"

Guess what. They can still connect with you by making an account on any of the fediverse sites. Hell, if you REALLY want to connect with them, just send them a sign-up link to the server you're on. They don't need to understand how the entirety of Fediverse works to just dive in (this is also how I got my friends and family to switch over to Signal from WhatsApp a few years ago).

"But they can already see your posts if they're public! So what's the point?"No. There's a difference between being...

"But they can already see your posts if they're public! So what's the point?"

No. There's a difference between being able to read or scrape stuff from the internet, and showing it to as a legitimate post from another person on the internet wrote and that one can interact with. They can still do the former but let's not give them an easy way to do the latter.

It's been bizarre seeing folk be like "Instagram/Meta federating with our server would actually be a good thing!".

Have we learned nothing from the history of the web?

At best, this is a way for them to get more content they can show their users. But more realistically this is going to go the same way things went with Google slowly killing XMPP.

Yes, there was a theme 😅

Also watched Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, which was great! It's a rare kind of middle school coming of age film which is going to stay with me for a while. Would definitely recommend it!

Maybe ask Shell and ExxonMobilon what we can do to stop climate change next! Ooh and the Sackler family on how we stop the opioid epidemic!
