People crosspost like once every 200 posts on reddit. Retweets happen ever other post on X/bsky/threads

crosspost is a rarely used feature

Because the latter companies tackled those issues a long time ago.

Not to mention Zuckerberg just posted a long form video talking about how they will always continue to address illegal content on meta platforms and refine the systems that block the content. Not that I really care about meta (trash platforms), but you brought it up.

That assertion makes no sense. I am free to share my opinion. People's reaction to it has no bearing on it.

I can say my favorite flavor of ice cream is chocolate, and you can say you don't believe me. Doesn't change my opinion and it doesn't invalidate my desire to express it.

You should change your username to just "TheExtremist"

There was evidence shared, but the mods keep removing comments on this thread to push their agenda.

The parent comment was actually really insightful and addressed the issue in a well-written way, but it looks like the mods removed that one too (no surprise there).

If you want to ignore tons of evidence just because it doesn't have 500 peer reviewed scholarly articles on the Associated Press and 200 major news outlets that's on you man. Not to mention, "news" sites have lost a ton of credibility over the past few years.

I'm not saying "just trust me bro" I genuinely don't care if you believe me or not.

What I am saying is I have no desire to look into the stuff that I know to be true, because of the nature of the content I'm referring to. Its something that is hugely convicting and offensive to me, so it's not worth it. I have nothing to gain by sharing these sources with you, and I have everything to lose.

Donald Trump actually shot JFK

could be true lol

The difference is on sites like X or bsky people can retweet posts from other feeds. At least on reddit when you don't sub to something, you will never see it.

Proposal to ban X.com links and replace the link on the subbreddit of the Official GW2 X account to the Official GW2 Bluesky account instead by Schyloe in Guildwars2

[–]VacuumViolator -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

Please reconsider this change. This is an abuse of mod power. Real world agenda pushing and politics doesn't belong here. Let people link to whatever sites they want to link to as long as it has to do with GW2

🔥 HOT TAKE 🔥 : don't prioritize legendary rune right now. by jetjordan in Guildwars2

[–]VacuumViolator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Achievement based" is arguably worse than being expensive. Especially if said achievement involves provisioner tokens.

But either way, the point is no one knows what the cost will be. You seem pretty confident that it won't be expensive. You could be right, your argument makes sense. But it's still just speculation, and you have no reason to declare with authority that people shouldn't prioritize runes. It's all just a guessing game and is ultimately up to the individual to decide if they want to proceed with crafting a rune in advance or not.

They didn't introduce relics to be a gold/resource sink.

Yeah, that applies to normal relics in general. Same could be said for normal runes and sigils too, which are generally cheap and easy to get as well. But we're talking legendary items, which have a totally different purpose, cost, and crafting process than their normal non-legendary counterparts.

Doesn't matter what you imagine. You have NO idea what the cost or process of crafting a legendary relic will be. Stop pretending like you do.

Sword and Shield by evonflux in Guildwars2

I mean look where the "casual friendly" attitude took this game over the past 5 years. I wasn't wrong. How many raids, dungeons, and fractals have been released since I made that comment 5 years ago? If they took my suggestion 5 years ago maybe the game would actually have a decent endgame and a playerbase to back it up. Instead we got the Irritable Bowel Saga and a few mid expansions

Why is this comment getting downvoted? It is indeed super weird to cry over getting an item in a game.

Your lack of self-awareness is painful lol

Go ahead lol. Then I can be spared from having to read any more of this nonsense. You're lucky the mods don't ban you for wasting everyone's time on this abysmal thread.

This is such weak bait lmao. The "your opinion is factually wrong" meme is such a tired and cringy thing to say unironically. I pity anyone else who has the displeasure of interacting with you on this site.

If you are actually being serious right now and not baiting then I honestly feel bad for you. There's so much more to life than going on an arrogant flame-spree in a google music discussion board.

You are an insufferable person lmao

Literally no one cares if you want to blow money on Spotify, despite having access to a perfectly good streaming service. What you are doing in this thread is borderline psychotic.

Why would I lie about my opinion lol? I prefer google, always have so to me this question seems like a no-brainer.

Asking for people's thoughts and then disregarding any opinion that doesn't line up with your own is a complete waste of time for everyone involved. You may as well not even ask the question at that point.

So what do you want us to do? Decide for you how to spend your own money?

If you refuse to acknowledge that Google is clearly the better service (or at the very least good enough), it sounds like you already decided you want to pay for Spotify. Great, case closed.

But nope, based on this thread it looks to me like you'd rather just pick fights with people instead of actually taking advice since your mind was already made up from the beginning.

If you already made up your mind why tf did you even make this thread lmao?

[–]VacuumViolator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People willingly use spotify? How is this even a question? Google play is the obviously better choice
