That's hilarious, but I needed the explanation too. Thanks!

but that there is a mental transactional cost associated with all of this as well.

Yeah, it sucks. I wouldn't attribute it to a platform but just to how we are. It's tribalism for one part, and people attributing malice to just plain ignorance. I don't mean ignorance as a negative, but just unaware of the politics / social dynamics of the instance you decided to create an account on

In a way I don't believe Nintendo was naive enough to rely on 'pinky promise'. Nintendo makes you sign NDAs for getting information about unreleased games, going to events, and playing review copies. Usually not personally, but there's a contract between Nintendo and the news / writing org.

The only time I'll be cheering for Apple. Good work detective. I guess they should have been glad they didn't get shot.

learning history through the power of memes? You spoil us

It should just post a reply and offer a link for people to also subscribe to the same reminder. But I'm not complaining, just talking in ideal scenarios

It's not, the community [email protected] just has it backwards. They are low quality lies, but the phrasing of the community makes it seem like it's true statement in a low-quality wrapper.
