Oh right on. Thanks for the info!

@techno156 I’m glad you asked this. I wasn’t sure how this worked either. Good to know it’s boosts and downvotes. I wonder what the logic was behind that. I guess receiving a boost is a stronger indication of quality content, but I dont feel that upvotes should be ignored in that calculation

I def see the splintering as a positive. Personally, I dont feel I motivated to engage with a community once it starts to feel “too” big. There’s a certain size where I feel unmotivated to engage. I know whatever I say there will get lost in the noise and there will be less meaningful communication. If any of my interests on a single server start to get too big where I feel like I’m just adding to the noise, I can always easily hop over to another instance where I can engage in a more meaningful way. I would bet there’s a lot of other folks on here who will feel the same. While I’m sure it’s likely that one instance for each topic might become the biggest “main” one, I dont think the smaller ones will be any worse off for it.

Imagine looking at an active dumpster fire and going “that’s what I want for my home!”

Blockinger and Shattered Pixel Dungeon are some of my favorites

That’s great news! The more the better! I’ve been liking simplex with the folks who have been willing to use it with me. It’s also crazy simple to get started with it as there’s not much to the account setup process. Takes literally seconds to be up and running

I also like simplex! Now if only more folks would be willing to join me there

@ernest can you clarify this?
