You’re right, that is an easier question to answer!

Haha whaaaat. After all this time, I had no idea that was a thing. Any enemy? Not bosses though, right?

Resident Evil Director’s Cut on PS1. I was fairly young and not very good at the “survival” aspect of the survival horror. I tried to kill everything I encountered and consumed copious amounts of ammo and herbs doing so. I reached a place where I had a single ink ribbon left, no ammo, health on the red, and confused on where I needed to go next. And I had to go do homework. So I used my last ribbon and saved.

I discovered next time I played that the way forward was through a tight corridor I missed filled with zombies who could now one-shot me. I tried and tried and literally was unable to get through. First time I ever learned the word “soft-locked” as my brother wheezed it out while laughing. Good times!

I don’t understand; I can access Kbin magazines from Jerboa. What am I missing?

@[email protected], you’re going to want in on this conversation.

That’s exactly what I did. I moved my reddit app elsewhere and put Jerboa in its place. Now when I instinctually click, I get confused for a minute as I look at Lemmy and then sigh in relief and start browsing lol. Brains take so much work to adjust to change.

Right, that’s what I’m saying - replacement may be easy, but those mods were suggesting a hit to quality. Something tells me Reddit is ready for widespread nuking and has a backup solution to handle that, but it would be lovely to see it all go down. Can’t wait to see what Reddit looks like after all these Subreddits finish going dark.

Right, that’s what I’m saying - I’m curious if we’ll notice a quality drop in content, if the majority of users who stay will notice or care, and how that will affect Reddit’s bottom line and investor opportunities.

There was some mods discussing this on Tildes, and the mods seemed to think that replacing them wouldn’t be as easy as people make it out to be. Mods apparently have a wealth of institutional knowledge that is required due to the lackluster default mod suite, and apparently the admins rely on them to come up with their own solutions to issues. Replacing the mods sounds like it will reduce the quality of the content but also will be a big headache for any new mods to jump in. Reddit may not give a shit and they may think it won’t significantly affect investor interest, but I wonder if us regular users will notice a difference. Hell, there’s already been a difference over the past 10 years.

I started rethinking that when I was seeing the influx of bots calling out other users as bots. Then I started noticing weirdly corporate speak in comments about products. I used to add “reddit” to every Google search to find any decent advice, but now I’m realizing even that advice is tainted. Ugh.
