I know you’re complaining, but I think you just described a good chunk of the reasons why I like Lemmy and the fediverse in general.

No one here is important or official. There are no video game community managers or anything like that here. Lemmy is not used for interacting with anyone other than fellow idle nerds.
This is how Reddit was before it exploded in popularity and companies and celebrities started taking it seriously. I don’t know if Lemmy will ever get to that point, especially seeing how much abuse people will endure before they change platforms.
These concepts have played out in many different civilizations long before (and during) America. This is why studying history is important–and also why dictators try to erase it.
Other harmful side-effects aside, how much a game impacted you is significantly affected by the context of your life. Experiencing the same game at a different time in your life might not be as meaningful.
I just tried it out and it’s really nice!
I literally read “The Black History” 4 times in utter confusion.
I see you’ve got biceps to spare.
Shame / embarrassment is an extremely powerful teacher, for better or worse.
The current theory is that shame evolved in humans as a survival mechanism to keep humans in groups. Shame is our brain’s corrective tool to avoid behavior that would ostracize us from a social group. If an early human were outcast by their tribe, their chances of survival or reproduction plummeted.
They’ll be fine. I don’t think Apple can trademark something as common as “Hello” in French, and it looks like this project is based in France.
It also poses zero threat to Apple, since this doesn’t compete with any of their products or services.
It’s the Overly-VerboseCommandSyntax in PowerShell that always grinds my gears.

My new favorite pull request title.
This is just the beginning!
“Has hundreds of private messaging applications that their friends won’t use” Stop, the wound is still fresh.
I’m an American and I think America social media should be banned.
That is, closed-source, centralized for-profit social media platforms that will inevitably devolve into ads and data collection machines should be banned.
The problem isn’t the country that hosts the platform. The problem is the incentive structure for social media to profit off its users.
Platforms that are either FOSS, run by non-profits, or pay-to-use don’t have an intrinsic incentive to exploit its users and can, in theory, be run ethically and sustainably.
How would someone better address a situation like that?
I was mostly making a joke, but I’m not sure how you came to that conclusion. Most of the internet is reactions to things.
The only thing more common than Star Wars fans complaining about Star Wars is Star Wars fans complaining that Star Wars fans complain too much about Star Wars.
If you mean those jars of mushed up fruit, they used mushed up fruit.
If you mean formula, then they either had a wet nurse who could assist, or the baby would die.
Infant mortality has decreased significantly in the modern age, and it’s the main reason average life expectancy has gone up so much.
