Natanael,

They’re not cryptocurrency fanatics. None of the project relies on cryptocurrency tech. Even Jack himself deleted his account and ran off to nostr.

Bluesky uses a model with user identities based on cryptographic keypairs, posts held in a personal account repository (git-like), and posts use content addressing (hash ID of posts), and everything is portable so you can move your account between host servers without breaking any references.

Federation is up in the sandbox environment with 3rd party implementations participating.

It’s more robust against enshittification than your average Mastodon server

Natanael,

Jack doesn’t have a majority on the board, he’s not even on the site anymore (deleted his account and ran off to nostr)

Natanael,

Bluesky supports porting user accounts between servers even more smoothly than Mastodon does - even if the original host do not want to cooperate.

Natanael,

Send them by DM, codes posted in public are scanned by bots which try to snipe them

Natanael,

Bluesky has 3rd party algorithm feeds, with hundreds of feeds already live

Natanael,

The only thing they control is the DID lookup for PLC type account DID values, but if you have your own domain and use web-DID they control nothing that can’t be replaced

Natanael,

You clearly haven’t read the docs

Natanael,

Yes, both from Valve working hard on compatibility and game devs testing against it

Games that require you to unlock the basic functions of the game can suck my nuts.

I have recently played 3 games that have forced a lengthy, unskippable tutorial section that runs for several hours of the game, just to unlock the most basic functions like buying the items, customizing features, multiplayer, and even 2-player split screen modes....

Natanael,

But on fresh installs? That’s where it really sucks

Natanael,

There’s Fossil which is a version control system with a wiki, so you can just straight up fork and mirror existing wikis.

Natanael,

Not really, just let the game devs chose when to request that the console enforces stricter verification of accessories and otherwise just allow whatever

Natanael,

And yet everything you said have no relevance

Looking for games with unique core mechanics

I’m requesting for recommendations for games that stand out from the rest in their genre, and not in the sense of being the best game in that niche but actually bringing something new and innovative to the table. I’ve not had much experience in gaming, but I have a few games to give you a hint on what I am talking about:...

Natanael,

Okami plays extremely well on Nintendo Switch with the ability to paint with your fingers on the touch screen

Natanael,

The key mapping thing might be the most useful part, because it can essentially become a small multipurpose remote control
