I posted a comment about the game before here. The game has improved since it launched, but if running around grinding for hours to improve your gear at the endgame doesn’t sound appealing then you most likely won’t enjoy it still.

The game was designed with solo play in mind but later content is much easier if you play with other players. There is matchmaking so you don’t need to work about making a party ahead of time.

Personally I would have some sort of notice regarding these on affected projects, but I don’t think it’s enough to warrant slapping an anti-feature flag on them just because of the author’s choice of code respoitory hosting provider or CDN.

I’m not sure how using a VPN would help in this situation if you are concerned about having your YouTube account banned? Would you being using that VPN while signed out and with cookies/site data cleared?

They’ve added more to do but the main gameplay loop still involves running around defeating enemies and getting loot.

• Since January 2023 they released the 4th region Stia, as as well as story that goes beyond that. The areas that they’ve added since the 3rd region Kvaris have their own gimmicks to use. They’ve not released any new regions since then as they said they want to focus on other parts of the game.

• There’s a new Creative Space feature that allows you to build some very impressive stuff.

• The class level cap is now 75 and they’ve added a load of class skills for each class as well as handed out buffs.

• Since launch they added the Braver (Katana & Bow), Bouncer (Jet Boots and Soaring/Dual Blades), Waker (summons familiars with their Harmonizer) and Slayer (Gunblade) classes.

• Leciel is a quest they added that changes its layout, obtainable buffs and end boss each day. Running it gives you near-endgame augment capsules for your gear.

• ARKS Rankings are now run weekly and task you with running existing content to get the highest score or best time and place onto a leaderboard. What this content is varies each week, but it can involve defeating a boss quickly, or completing a Trainia dungeon as fast as you can, or racing on hoverboards. The higher you get on the leaderboard the more ranking badges you get which you can spend on cosmetics, some gear and other prizes.

• Alliances can now compete in weekly rankings by collecting points from completing Alliance Tasks (which also give Alliance Badges). The best Alliances are rewarded with Meseta (the in-game currency).

• It’s not really a feature, but downloading the “PSO2” side of the game is now optional if you play the Steam version. It chops 58GB off the total install size if you don’t download it.

There’s a load of other features and quests they’ve added over time that I can’t remember off the top of my head. if you haven’t played for a long time, I would recommend giving it another try, though pacing yourself is advised.

If CS:GO was preserved as a beta version in the game’s properties that would be great. Apparently they are doing that now with some sort of replay player version but it’s broken?

It really depends on the subreddits you use. I was on reddit for almost 10 years and while I saw others complaining about power-trippers I never experienced it myself and that’s after I’ve used several bigger subreddits.

As fun as it is to dunk on reddit and its moderation, this is definitely exaggerated lol

For mp3 sure, but for opus standards 160kbps is great. I read that 128kbps is generally considered the most you need but 160kbps smooths over any artifacts, assuming the source file doesn’t have them.

You can download audio from YouTube as 160kbps opus files, which aren’t lossless sure but it’s the highest quality you can get from YouTube if alternate means aren’t an option.

While you were using the subreddits you were subscribed to, the general default subreddits were always seeing activity like this.

But over time reddit has been attracting a far more general audience of regular people from other social media platforms.

I get that searching can be a bit finicky sometimes but doesn’t typing in a full username of a user you want to search for usually do the job?

That part about shutting down is something that https://joinmastodon.org/covenant tries to help with, where advance notice should be given and multiple people should have access to administrative actions. At least if the server has to shut down the users are given enough time to look at another server.

I tried finding information on what indexer they are using. Are they using their own?

Edit: says this in the readme:

The commoncrawl organization for crawling the web and making the dataset readily available. Even though we have our own crawler now, commoncrawl has been a huge help in the early stages of development.

Falkon uses a Chromium wrapper https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwebengine-overview.html

How is that API still up after this has happened?

Thank you for doing that :D

To give some more information on this, reddit can “shadowban” users, which will cause all of the user’s submissions and comments following the shadowban to be automatically removed. Moderators of subreddits can see and can “Approve” these removed comments on subreddits they moderate, but only reddit admins can remove the shadowban from the user if they appeal. This shadowban system is often used on spammers so that they waste time spamming into the ether without realising it, however the shadowban would affect all of their comments and submissions, not ones with a specific link in them.

Reddit does also maintain a list of domains commonly used for spam purposes. I believe ibb.co is an example of a domain on that list that instantly gets any comment or submission it is in removed.

When a comment is removed, it is replaced with “[removed]” text, however this can only be seen by other users if there are any replies to the comment. Otherwise the comment disappears from view except to the user themselves and the subreddit’s moderators.

@Crass_Spektakel you should try testing this in places other than the subreddit you have seen this in. Subreddit moderators can apply their own link filters and automatically remove comments and submissions without notifying the user.

Dark Reader is just too heavy for what it does. I use https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension and it does all that I need.

Yeah I would imagine there are people that do. I don’t think there’s anything wrong posting it here too though - it’s not like we have finite space.

There are people that like to keep up with minor version releases like this.
