^Everyone should be interested in more things than they can give proper attention for /s

^Dynasty Scans I think

Also yeah small communities such as this, and old school internet forums, are so much easier to manage over the insanity that is social media lol

^It's mostly thanks to site like this lacking algorithm-based content propositions and engagement-bases revenue generation. They crazier something is, the more people engage with it, and more money it's making. So social-media like FB, Shitter or Instagram serve "controversial" stuff where they can, so they make more money. I mean there is a reason why several studies shown that they push right-wing narrative and "talking heads" like 3-4 times more often than even "centrist" stuff, not even mentioning left-wing stuff.

FYI, the grenades are a reference to Koharu's ingame ability (her ult basically) where she throws a holy hand grenade that deals damage to enemies and heals allies. I assume a gay grenade just makes everyone EMUACH

^^Yeah, engagement bait and all of that, from what I've heard and seen negativity generates the most responses and engagement with algorithms. I've heard that being the case with Youtube as well. Old internet style communities such as this are also generally slower. So less no algorithm and more casual engagement make for a better overall experience in my opinion, and the older I get the more strongly I feel in that regard, especially when this website doesn't bloat it's self with the latest trends like useless ai garbage, nfts, crypto, all of that nonsense and so forth.

Hearing about this reminds me of the ZZZ community and how a lot of artists who drew Evelyn x Astra art were sent hateful messages and comments. It was really surprising since other Hoyoverse games don't have have that problem.

^Oh they have, it's just not that prominent. I still remember when Arleccino beat up Aether and the meltdown after that.

^^Yahtzee Croshaw was talking about in one of his videos, that his "worst of x year" videos (or part of videos) have much higher viewership that "best of x years". As someone explained: If you post "X game is good" it will mostly attract people who agree with it/like the game, not much of these who, aren't interested or don't like it. Meanwhile when you post ""x is shit/woke/etc" it will bring both people who hate it too and people who will defend it. Negativity gives you much, much more viewership than being positive. That why so many people becoming ragebaiters/grifters.

^Yeah that's in line with what I've seen and heard as well. It's unfortunate and depressing I think.

@myrrhmidon Ohhh lol that's interesting, I might consider trying the game later.

@ObsessiveFingerLicker My experience here is better than 90% of any social media site fr. I think the method of prioritising members' comfort instead of abstract concept like "free speech" (where even many community builder unfortunately fell for) is the reason.
Also most social media corporation aren't just clickbaiting, they're just anti-progress, and they're using the social media site as their weapon to fight against social progress (the most glaring example being Twitter/Elmo).

Love across the generations

^I always forget we can call him Elmo, I've just been calling him Muskrat lol
