Just subbed mostly because of the promise to avoid outrage culture. Some Lemmy communities for games I have seen are pretty good at slapping down any bigoted stuff (props to them!) but do engage in outrage that happens to be progressive-flavored. On one hand I get it, the post is bad news that probably impacts some gamers, on another, I’d like to enjoy my hobby instead of seeing the 388338th “the gaming industry is having serious troubles, billionaires are bad, short-term-profit-seeking shareholders ruin everything” comment. I agree with that position but I do not want to think about it all the time when I come on Lemmy for fun, not political anger.

ok so I am a forgetful idiot and made a consolidation post two months ago and did absolutely squat with it, but you might want to check it anyways

I have zero dog in this fight and will do whatever the majority wants.

As someone who does not subscribe to WomensStuff, so I only have general advice for you:

• If you or your instance (still forget the specifics) is opted into Lemmy Federate, then the bot drops a subscription when a real user subscribes. If that real user unsubscribes, I’m not sure the bot picks it back up.
• People deleting their accounts or getting banned from an instance, perhaps? Not sure if banning from an instance drops all the user’s subscriptions there.
• Fatigue or dislike with the posts there.
• Maybe just plain old federation issues? I know I have a community where my subscription is still pending, because the instance has massive federation issues.

It happens. I wouldn’t worry too much about it unless it drops a good fraction and stays down.

So pleased to have seen this on my feed. Loved doing mazes as a kid.

There’s a wonderful contrarian-but-is-it-really-considering-it’s-making-the-lawful-choice delight in trying to follow the rules in a game about breaking rules.

No-commentary video of someone just driving in GTA trying to follow the rules of the road. I’m usually really not a video person, but just watching this feels nice somehow.
