This is a huge opportunity for Unreal as well. I’m surprised they haven’t announced some flashy on-boarding campaign.
I accumulate lots of knowledge to counteract my lack of self-confidence.

Pretty much this.
I was asked to help mod a new community, and things were going pretty well for a year or so, but then the sub owner and the other mods gradually disappeared until it was just me and another guy left.
Well, turns out they were moderating/owning 30+ subs on average. We both quit that day.
I just can’t understand what kind of ego boost they get out of being useless cunts in 30 places. How can such little power be so tantalizing to some people?
I played HL2 in VR and the original (but upscaled) textures still looked good.
It would be great to play the RTX version in VR as well because it adds so much to the atmosphere. Baked in lighting is only good up to a point.
“Forbidden knowledge” my ass. You can just Google these things.
Has the site really changed that much since the Muskification, or are people just exposed to more negative stuff because the Elon hate-bandwagon is amplifying everything?
I don’t use twitter at all, so I have no frame of reference.
Really? Because as far as I know it’s a pyramid scheme.
Bold of you to assume they even went to business school.
All the big wigs I’ve met were “self-made millionaires” -meaning assholes that used, manipulated and fucked over enough people to reach their current positions.
Also, tax evasion.
The entire story surrounding this discovery is a scientific rollercoaster ride, with rogue scientists, updated papers, plus cloudy definitions and process descriptions within the paper that make replication efforts more difficult, and even a Russian soil scientist (and anime catgirl) deconstructing the original Korean paper to unveil the trademark levitation of the Meissner effect over her own kitchen counter.
I can’t believe they just dropped all this without any explanation. XD
*gestures vaguely at everything*
I see this mentality all the time for industrial applications.
At work we have Stratasys 3d printers that cost upwards of $150k per machine, yet the “professional” slicer they come with is the most user hostile piece of software I’ve ever had the misfortune of handling.
They haven’t spent a single dime on UI design since '95 and the workflow feels like I’m in a wrestling match with the software.
The only reason these companies can get away with such blatant laziness is because they have no competition in their respective fields.
Bingo.
Few years ago I was invited to mod a small but growing community.
About a year later the sub founder (and other mods) just gradually disappeared.
When I brought this up, the top mod (a month later and without warning) removed everyone and asked to DM him if we wanted to continue being mods.
Every single person re-applied, but the inactivity continued.
When I looked at their profile, it turned out they were moderating dozens of subs, and according to the moderation log, I was the only one who actually performed any mod actions in the last 6 months.
This was when I took my leave.
Again, we’re talking about a small ~20k community.
I can’t even imagine the kind of clout chasing that goes around in large subs.
The good news is that we are on the verge of building something that we own on Lemmy, where corporations won’t be able to fuck with us as much.
Yeah, about that…
Let’s see what happens when Meta decides to federate Threads with the rest of us.
I really hope you’re right because I love this place right now. It’s much smaller than other platforms but there’s enough content for hours of browsing and the community is leagues above the rest of the internet in terms of quality of discourse.
Outside of the fedi, I don’t remember the last time I saw opposing views coexist in the same thread without one being brigaded.
Just last week someone retorted to me with “I’ve been using the official app for 2 years and I’m happy”.
I’m still not sure whether I was talking to an AI…
This is Microsoft we’re talking about.
It takes you their website where you can read 2 paragraphs of bullshit that will in no way clarify anything.
This makes me wonder whether decentralized social media is actually immune to enshittification, or will it just take a different form we can’t even imagine at this moment in time.
Unity is so ubiquitous that it would have unimaginable consequences.
For example, 90% of vr games are made in Unity. So that’s one segment of gaming completely wiped off the map.
Things are not much better in desktop and mobile gaming either, as Unity has close to 50% market share.
It would be a literal Thanos snap.
