Not just the year, it is in the top 50 of all time. Beating games like Portal 2, TP, MM, Skyrim, TW3. Also, what has come out this year that hasn’t flopped, been a remaster/release, or isn’t FFXVI?

I don’t see how. Is it the best game you’ve ever played?

It deserves a good review, but I’d say it’s nowhere near the best game.

So hot that it feels like I’m playing a totally different game than reviewers

but TotK is just GMod with Zelda models and poorly written furry fanfic. Some great elements there, but nothing special, and I’d say it fits in your ‘above average open world games’

Guitars, guitarpedals, various gardening communities, various construction communities, homeowning communities, diy stuff, worldjerking.

A lot of the non tech savvy communities have yet to move. It’s the same reason facebook groups are good for that sort of thing

I still have a few communities that have yet to migrate, so I hate browse them. But sometimes it recommends these rating subs, and morbid curiosity takes over. I swear, the vitriol that is emitted from some of these people… It’s just depressing to see people treated that way

I’ve found it has the weirdest active communities. The best poison control first line is through a facebook group.

It’s great for ‘boomer knowledge’. Geo trackers, foraging, mushroom growing, 80’s japanese guitars, tree ID, etc.

Marketplace has taken away some of the sketchiness of Craigslist.

Facebook and Meta and Zucc are evil, but facebook is still a useful tool

Facebook is nowhere near as dead as you think it is. It is still the best place for local groups and many niche hobbyist groups. I really don’t want reddit to be another version of that, 1 crappy social site is enough. Also you’re missing a key differentiating factor: facebook has actual paid content moderators.

I don’t think reddit will die, at least not right away (remember, digg shut down finally in 2018).

Best case scenario is they hemorrhage users, fail ipo, and then join the fediverse. I say this because joining will create a bridge for new users to come here.
Worst case scenario is they become like twitter. which is possible.
My money is on them trying to sell to Microsoft or Google for ai training, and keeping their api private.

It’s been archived, but I can’t find an easy way to browse it. So far I’ve just been using the web archives plugin and finding a archived version of a page
