It’s very easy to make a mechanical clone of the game if someone wanted to play it.

This is purely about greedy crypto bros trying to grift off of Flappy Bird and using legal loopholes to steal the trademark

I think this is the patent IBM is suing over

Seems to be about pre-loading ads to a user’s device. As with most software patents, it sounds like the vaguest possible wording that covers about a million things

Posted in the fandom thread but MTGZone.com is around if you enjoy Magic the Gathering

!MTG@mtgzone.com - main community

!Spoilers@mtgzone.com - new card reveals

!art@mtgzone.com - MTG artwork

There are also format specific communities for Standard, Modern, Pauper, Commander, etc… but they don’t see as much use

Man, what a mess. This site was doomed to fail

MTGZone.com for all things Magic the Gathering

!MTG@mtgzone.com is the main one but !Spoilers@mtgzone.com is hopping with Duskmourn reveals right now

Edit: also !art@mtgzone.com if you just want to see some pretty pictures

Played this years ago but couldn’t quite get into it. Maybe I should try it again to see if it clicks

Even after Automattic acquired it, the site continued to lose money at a rate of $30 million each year, the company’s CEO Matt Mullenweg had said.

I still wanna know what they’re spending all that money on, because I’m sure it’s not developers or even servers. The idea that they can only be profitable if they’re constantly growing their user numbers is an investor idea that’s doomed to fail eventually and why so many social media sites are crashing right now

Wait, a solo dev with no experience other than RPG Maker games is making a highly detailed first-person 3D open world tactical strategy RPG with character customization, romance options and branching narratives? Sounds a little too ambitious to be true

I still crave shooters but don’t seem to have the time for online multiplayer anymore. I want to try stuff like Ultrakill and Selaco nowadays

Does anyone really want another generic hero shooter though? It’s not like we’re at a loss for options

Card Crawl/Card Thief/Miracle Merchant are good puzzle-like games

C’mon dude, cartoon animals doesn’t cover the amount of suspiciously similar Palworld color schemes and proportions we’ve seen compared to Pokemon like Cobalion/Lilligant/etc

Better crossposting support. Web view shows you communities that something has been crossposted to and has an easy crosspost button. Would like to see the same in Sync

I can only assume that the issue is that they’re trying to reduce the number of calls to the original instance. If you’re just scrolling by, you only see the post that’s cached on your own server, and it doesn’t communicate with the original instance until you open the post. Making it so that every time some scrolls by a post it contacts the original instance sounds like it massively increases the amount of traffic to the original instance which goes against the idea of software that supports smaller, self or community hosted servers.

And then they’ll cancel anything they didn’t spam the front page with and blame it on low viewership

It was originally given away for free

Pixelfed is the federated alternative, not sure if it’s open source though

Boy this legally distinct gothic horror themed game that shares nothing in common with a popular Sony franchise sure looks like a fun time

Not so much as stopped feeling nostalgic for, but realizing that there weren’t as many great games available as I thought that haven’t had better successors or remakes. And for Nintendo consoles, non-Nintendo games that stand the test of time are difficult to find outside of a few franchises that usually have more modern versions on Switch.

We are just spoiled for choice these days when it comes to games, especially with indie games. And indies these days often have better UX than most mainstream games back then.
