Ouch

Fair point, although !baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world seems to go fairly well, but the fact that it’s a recent game is probably helping.

Will do!

For some reason I did not find this community before. I will try to contribute there. Thank you!

Amongst others I’m currently playing Baldur’s Gate 3 in coop mode.

I absolutely love it (I’m also a huge fan of Dragon Age Origins, so no surprise here).

I just wish cut scenes wouldn’t just start playing as soon as one of the players walks into them. Especially since the game is so dense with content (we are still relatively at the beginning though, maybe that changes later on).

I know with most dialogs everybody has the option to listen, but often you’re still going to miss the beginning of the conversation. A “wait for other players” button or something like that would be great.

How do other people handle this?

Let’s all make a test, what does this post look like from your instances:

I agree that the downvotes on your posts in the Jerboa community are rather strange. My theory is that people who downvote your more controversial stuff subsequently go through your whole profile and just downvote everything regardless of content.

Strange, when I look at OPs history, I see quite a few in the negative. Maybe it’s because I’m from a different instance?

I never really understood it myself. But from what I’ve heard from people who are (or rather were) regular Twitter users, they like to follow celebrities or specific journalists (people who have actual interesting things to say). Those people are often not on Mastodon, though.

I think you make a great point. It’s easier to make an echo chamber in Mastodon/Twitter, since you mostly encounter people you already know (or are connected to via someone you know).

Not that echo chambers are impossible on platforms like Lemmy or Reddit, but I feel like the format of Twitter/Mastodon especially encourages it.

Thanks for the clarification! I’d like to add that this site long predates the whole crypto currency craze. I can see how nowadays the name “cryptopals” does not evoke the best associations.

I’m my opinion, the “basics” set is relatively tame. After that, the headaches might begin, especially if one wants to understand all the math behind it.
