  • Regarding your confusion and surprise, the person you replied to merely gave their reason why they bought it and supported a transphobe, and it was because this person’s sister requested that game specifically.

    I know the question posed was mostly rhetorical in nature. But I’m not sure why you are questioning why someone is answering the question, and I’m not sure what kind of satisfactory answer you could get from anyone who had purchased the game (and supported a transphobe, yes, which I haven’t).

    The rest of your comment is a legit response, but I’m only pushing back on the first sentence of your reply. Or even moving that sentence to the back of your comment to make it less charged. If someone’s going to answer a loaded question, let them, but get to the point about how misguided they are with their justification before you question the answer. That would likely make for a more constructive discussion. Unless you think that these answers are unhelpful in the first place, that we’re better off not hearing why people have done transphobic things with different intentions, and we should refuse to give them space to reflect, learn, then own up to their transgressions if they don’t come right out of the gate to apologize. Then sure, ignore what I said.



  • Glad you are here!

    There are instances of heavy-handed mod and admin actions here, but they are often held to account, generally on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com. Moderation disputes often end up discussed from a third party perspective on !fediverselore@lemmy.ca.

    It is an echo chamber here too, but I have seen more often that opinions against the “narrative” getting -10 or lower but not censored. Some double down, are flamebaiting or downvote farming for unknown reasons, but there are times when you can see a genuine attempt at understanding and discussion from both parties. Over 7 years on Reddit (2016-2023), I can count how many times that happened on one hand, while on Lemmy, it’s infrequent but it happens a lot more than that.

    If you want to set up a “movies and stuff” server, if you have them as digital files (rather than on disks) then you can try setting up JellyFin as your media server on any Linux distribution of choice.

    Try playing around with it on a machine and disk that you won’t mind screwing up and losing everything on. Not because you’re bad at it, it’s how you learn, everyone makes mistakes.
