This is a bigger issue to leave it to users imo. Like lemm.ee admin said a few months ago, threads is too fucking big.

Anything they push on the fediverse will be what users see in All. Plus, popular stuff on threads is determined through Facebook’s algorithm, and it will also determine the fediverse recommendations by consequence.

The above is solvable if you block them I guess, but by default it will completely ruin everything.

However, lemmy 0.19 block feature doesn’t work on users of an instance, only posts hosted in an instance. Add to this that Facebook is a cancerous company making all its money from ads. Expect their bots to comment and make posts pushing ads on all instances.

All of this will also mean high workload on mods to regulate the content. Threads doesn’t bring anything good here, and defederation is probably the only way to protect us.

@SleeplessOne1917 seems to be their GitHub handle. You can see this by going to one of the pull requests that are linked in the thread (e.g instance block feature)

@cannotsleep420 seems to be their lemmy handle. You can see this by going to the thread link the OP posted, in which that account is commenting about the UI tweaks.

Both accounts list their location as ‘Burgerland’(?) so they’re most likely the same dev. Plus the ‘SleeplessOne1917’ lemmy handle you linked has absolutely no activity.

You can also see @cannotsleep420 crossposting earlier lemmy changelogs that mention @SleeplessOne1917…

Tbh I have had a lot of fun with this game (35h in). It’s an RPG first and space explorer second, nothing necessarily wrong with that.

I also learned that if you’re tracking a quest you can use the grav drive right from the ship’s HUD by selecting the locstion marker. It does help immersion a tiny bit more.

Overall it’s what they promised, modders can anyways “fix” the shortcomings.

There is spaceship battles, not sure about random locations, but I’m guessing you’d also need to fast travel to those.

Also the spaceship is VERY customizable, so much in fact that I found it overwhelming lmao. Not saying that’s bad thing, but you’d definitely need to come up with a lot of credits /loot first.

Again I only have 4 hours in game, so I don’t really know much yet.

Just played 4 hours. Not saying whether the game is good or bad, but I’m not seeing the point of the spaceship yet.

It’s looks like merely a medium for the fast traveling mechanic. You can’t really “move” in space (as far as ive tried), and can’t use it to fly within a planet.

I expected being able to manually travel from planet A to planet B and finding cool stuff along the way. If you wanna actually move you need to fast travel.

I also expected to be able to get in my ship and go from place A to place B within the same planet (also finding cool stuff along the way). It seems that also is just done by fast traveling only.

Those who are still on the ‘apple bad’ train like to forget they are running an OS built by an ads company.

Every phone manufacturer has some bad shit, I choose to stick with apple cuz I already have a big library of paid stuff.
