You might be right, it’s impossible to know for sure not being in his personal circle, but if that’s the case he should have stepped down. And if he’d built a circle of staff around him that was in alignment with his previous vision, then they might have asked him to step down. Either way it’s sad and frustrating.

I have to since I’m in PA. I mostly care because I want to see more of this….but not just a threads post, but like actual political action. Still better than Oz, but man does it sting being fooled so thoroughly.

I think it’s important to remember that this was pitched as a single game originally. It was announced the year Mass Effect 3 came out. Comparing it to anything else is honestly pointless. Rockstar is building a game off its success and profits of GTA V. This is a ten year saga of broken promises and scope creep so astounding that people are saying they’re building four games when they’ve yet to prove they could deliver one. That’s just wild.

Yeah I think I was simultaneously surprised about that, and how long Mojeek had been in the game.

Mojeek has been an interesting alternative. I do find myself using google as a backup when I’m not getting what I need, but Mojeek does tend to present very different results.

I don’t think any other search engine, including DuckDuckGo, has its own web crawler like mojeek does. DuckDuckGo is security based, but still google in the end (similar to how most browsers are actually chromium). It apparently also uses a different term algorithm so you have to readjust how you search because it doesn’t do anything predictive or “smart” in its searching for results.

Same, things have been running a lot smoother when I popped my head in today.

It’s definitely a transition. I’m loving it so far though.

Former midwesterner, moved out of Columbus, OH with my wife to be closer to her family in PA, so midwest adjacent. Also 100% new to the fediverse (looked it up and explored it just this morning), and loving every corner I’ve visited so far.

I’m a tech/gaming enthusiast, who works from home, and also happens to live on a 170+ year old 12(ish) acre farmette just outside of Gettysburg, so I will be hunting down the garden and farming posts on here o.o
