"We got together with Ross Scott of Accursed Farms to discuss the Stop Killing Games initiative that he is presently spearheading. The Stop Killing Games initiative aims to preserve games in a reasonably playable state even after the game's publishers and/or developers abandon it, helping ensure consumers keep some level of what they have paid for rather than having all access revoked and the game destroyed."

I use PieFed. Filter lists are one feature and here I am commenting on user/moderator QoL feature anemic Lemmy. I see absolutely nothing about US politics unless the title doesn't mention what I've blacklisted. Still cuts down on almost all of it except meme communities. I try to join meme communities not hosted on American centric instances instead.

A little bit is okay. I just don't want US centric posts to be the majority of what I see as a Canadian. It's not my country.

I use FreshRSS for news/international news and my mental health is better for it since I don't look at it constantly like my forums addiction.

I think we gotta find ways to talk to non-English speaking influencers in the lagging countries here.

I'm sure you can find someone on the db0 instance who will.

He played PUBG at the height of popularity and yelled the n-word live on the famous bridge where people die all the time on the original map.

I'm probably missing more since that was a single outburst.

Bluetooth 5 is 50Mbit/s it's perfectly fine even more so past 5.4 for latency and 6.x. even better. So personally for me it's good enough now. The battery life on my WF Sony earbuds has been enough to not annoy me at all. So, it's better than a tangling cord.

That's kinda how Killing Floor 2 got updates except Tripwire used a third party to manage making popular Workshop uploads official for years.

Yep I think I'd like it. Not sorry.
