Streaming subscription fees have been rising while content quality is dropping
  • For me it’s felt like years of excessive mid from Netflix in particular.

    There are some good shows out there, but it feels like there’s 2-3 shows worth watching a year at this point, and that’s across all streaming services.

  • I prioritise trying to keep myself clean, healthy, and not overwhelming myself. I already fail at all of those things.

    If I tried to do this I’d probably manage it for a month, then end up with a collection of cans and bottles in the corner of a room, acting as a constant reminder of how I’m a failure.

    I understand the good it does, I’d like to contribute, but that doesn’t change how my brain works.

  • The ADHD leaving my body when someone says to “simply do it”

    Thank you, your patronising suggestion is very helpful and has addressed all my problems. I don’t know why I didn’t think about just doing stuff simply before 🙄

  • Consumers embrace Ireland’s first bottle deposit return scheme | Recycling | The Guardian
  • idgi… So it’s just a way that makes it easier for bottles to be recycled?

    Imma be honest, I can barely stay on top of emptying my bin at home, the chances of me having the time and energy to do this are non existent.

  • Game Companies List ‘FitGirl-Repacks’ as a Key Piracy Threat
  • maybe Dodi and FitGirl are one and the same?

    I don’t think so, I specifically use Dodi repacks because they seem to extract better. I find FitGirl repacks can take hours to extract and often crash.

    Also, I think they’re talking about dodi-repacks.download being a backup for the main Dodi site, not FitGirl.

  • Global study reveals people, including those most affected by climate change, do not understand climate justice
  • Sorry, but this article seems a bit silly; they equate not having heard the term “climate justice” with not understanding it.

    I hadn’t heard of the term before, but already understood the bits it encompasses when they explain what it means.

    I just think it’s misleading to say that people don’t understand it, when they’re probably just not up to date on the buzzword.

  • [TheGamingBritShow] Remakes are Cringe and There's Nothing We Can Do
  • Not gonna lie, really couldn’t get through 2 minutes of the video.

    Just so much snobbery in the video, sounds like a TotalBiscuit wannabe but with shit takes and trying to cram fancy words in.

    I’m not a fan of this remaster/remake phase in media, but remaking a 23 year old game like this is valid imo.

    I’ve also heard great things about this remake and have played some great remakes as well, so this is just hating for the sake of it imo.

  • Why do shows on streaming platforms waste time with "previously on" recaps?
  • I tend to watch shows three or so episodes at a time, but then it can be a few days or even weeks until I get back to it.

    Side note: I really appreciate shows that put out a proper recap of the last season. I ain’t rewatching an entire season just so I can watch the new one.

    How is Lemmy supposed to replace Reddit?

    I just don't get how Lemmy is going to act as a proper replacement for Reddit.

    I understand the basic concept of Lemmy and the Fediverse, and people are touting the concept of it being federated and not centrally controlled, but it is an absolute mess and nobody seems to have an idea about what to do with it.

    How are communities going to grow if there isn't at least some form of central management. Other than there being an underlying framework that connects the servers, they're all just doing what they want.

    Outside of the underlying framework, there's no 'guidelines' or consistency. The servers have random names, and the main Lemmy.ml is telling people to register elsewhere.

    How is this going to bring in a wider audience if people are being directed to lemmy.fmhy.ml, sopuli.xyz, or sh.itjust.works?

    What is the purpose of the Fediverse when forums for niche interests already exist on the internet?

    Does it make sense to have something like a 'sports' server that has communities for soccer, NFL, basketball, MMA? But then how do you get a consistent naming scheme that lets people know it's part of the fediverse?

    Maybe Lemmy could work as a replacement, but it seems like it needs a 'flagship' server with a group of people maintaining it to set an example. Then other servers that cover more specific areas, such as sports, can be set up and potentially work closely with that flagship group.

    If this doesn't happen, then I can't see how this doesn't just fizzle out.

    P.S. I've also compared two different Lemmy servers and looked at the same post in a community, and there are different numbers of comments on each where they haven't synced up...

    I also wanted to post this to the main Lemmy community, but as I had to register via a different server, I'm not able to access that community from the server I'm using for some reason...
