Steam has a lot more great games now, but you have to put up a block list to get rid of the flood of gooner/asset flip/streamer bait garbage. Also, shovelware is nothing new.

The bside games comm (look for “bside@fedia.io” if the link is broken) here on lemmy is great for chill indie game releases, as well as the patientgamers comm.

Going through steam discovery queues and clicking “ignore” or blocking associated tags also helps massively.

YouTube has been black box algorithm hell for like 10-15 years now. That started with pewdiepie in like, what, 2011? Maybe use an incognito/signed out page and search for specifically what you want?

Radio has also always been largely shit, exhibit A being Rush Limbaugh from the ‘90s/‘00s on US AM band radio. Go even further back and you have the payola scams of the 1970s. Spotify, Bandcamp, Qobuz, niche music communities etc. will be where you find something you like.

Centralized media will never be something you have control over and I’d bet that’s your real problem with most of this.

It’s hard not to see the US and Israel as two faces of the same genocidal entity, to be honest.

It would make reporters stop bitching about the economy and help keep things afloat.

People can buy groceries when they have the money to do so. They may even have a little extra to buy a candy bar, or a gadget or coffee to also boost the economy.

It would allow people to be more productive since stress destroys your ability to function properly.

And most importantly: nobody should worry about a roof over their head or where their next meal is coming from.

!! The song!

I’ll always remember it from the buggy disaster that was the Olsen sisters’ “Magical Mystery Mall” for PS1, or at least the synth beat from it.

He must feel quite refreshed after that

Using Mlem; their stuff shows up for me. Might be your frontend/app.

Hahahaha

Kids are gonna be kids the world over.

…maybe some sort of preliminary DDoS testing? Wouldn’t put it past bad actors to target small/open source oriented sites after the attacks on Arch Linux earlier this year.

I had a college friend who did that. Their family seemed pretty chill overall from what I could tell ¯\(ツ)/¯

.ml is the “flagship”/original Lemmy instance, and the “ml” usually means Malaysia but was taken up as shorthand for Marxist-Leninist.

Some folks don’t particularly like the political flavor of those communities and/ or the Lemmy developers who reside there, so they seek other instances and communities to join.

I’d rather spend one hour on my phone before bed than three trying and failing to get my brain to shut up ¯\(ツ)/¯
