But think of the shareholders!!

Obviously. Trump wants a yes-man north of the border.

It was barely even alive for it to die in the first place 👀

I wouldn't use either as they both use google's browser engine. They're just two flavours of Chrome.

Depends on the company and where you live, I feel. Some has gotten worse, some has improved.

But they have all gotten more expensive. So goddamn expensive. These days I can order a well made, flame-grilled burger at a burger joint for the same price as fast food slop.

Average users do not even remotely care about federated software and/or decentralisation. That is techno-babble to them and their eyes will glaze over if you try to market that to them.

That being said: Mastodon does a shit job at explaining how it works, how to use it, and what its advantages are. The Joinmastodon landing page just assumes you already know how a fair bit about instances work and what federated software is and does a very poor job explaining it. And even then, most users won't care either way. They just want to click a Join button and be done.

Should've rounded it up to 1B. And then tripled it.

The inability to use my own client was the deciding factor of why I did not go with Tuta when I was email shopping. They've got good features and a fair price but that one decision is a serious turn-off imo.

Posteo isn't a monthly charge to your credit card. It uses a credits that you can top up whenever you feel like it. I usually put in a year's worth of credits in advance which costs me around $17CAD.

I've had nothing but positive experiences with Posteo. Their features list is very good for the pittance they charge per month.

Agreed. TES just hasn't had good world design and lore since Morrowind. If I remember correctly, he also wrote much of the books in the TES universe which are still used in Skyrim.

ESO might be an exception. I don't think it has the best writing but it does have much more interesting lore and world design than Oblivion and Skyrim.

Agreed. Modding doesn't "fix" Skyrim either. It adds surface-level content and tweaks but the fundamental bones of the game are still there and they are heavily flawed. One of the few exceptions I can think of are things like Skywind but that's only because it removes Skyrim's story entirely, overhauls many of its mechanics, and uses the world/lore/story of one of Bethesda's better games.

And in the case of Starfield - it's entirely beyond salvaging with mods. Mods will not be able to fix the biggest problems with that game because they are literally the very way the game was made. To fix them would require basically remaking the entire game from scratch.
