Snuck in an edit that touches some or your points. I’m not on Lemmy because of federation, that’s incidental. I’m here because it’s another option to explore. But I still use reddit, too, because the community is there.

Barring the single account, I want them entirely disconnected though. Discord had not suffered in growth because of a lack of interaction.

Centralization is irrelevant for what users want outside of a niche. The average user doesn’t care.

And I should note I’m not against competitors and open source but they all need to realize that the thing that matters to users isn’t the underlying architecture or that they’re foss. It’s the features, community, and experiences they deliver.

Lemmys a good example. From the outset having to ‘choose’ a server is already an anti-pattern on seamless user experience.

It looks like discord. There is no replacement. No other project comes close.

Why do we need federation though? I like my discord ‘servers’ being disjointed.

Unclear to me at this point, I’m less than an hour in. A few fights looked optional (I just ran by enemies) but others were not :/

Started Tunic but I’ve been deceived; the combat is souls-like. And I despise that.

Given the definition of fraud likely lies within Nintendo’s user agreements I’d tread lightly.

Edit: this was meant for op.
