Cash will always exist. Even though I pay cashless 99% of the time, there’s always that little 1% when having a bit of cash on you is useful. It just means any cash on me will last a long time before I even get around to spend it.
And why would there be riots? Spain had zero riots, people were calm from what I’ve seen.
Sharkey. Piefed. Pixelfed. In order from most used to least used. I don’t use Lemmy.
How long ago did you press that recents button?! 👀
That’s nuts.
The Fediverse is diverse. Do you want something looking like the original Instagram? We’ve got it. Just a Twitter-clone (without algorithms)? We got it too. Something like Reddit? Sure thing, why not! Something to track your books with? Yeah, that’s around as well. Something doesn’t exist yet? Don’t worry, it eventually will! 😋
And the fun thing… Most of the platforms can interact with each other since they speak mostly the same language on the same network! You don’t like the interface of Mastodon? No worries, go use Misskey or Akkoma or whatever! Mastodon-users will still be able to read your posts! No more moving to a nicer looking platform and finding out that all your followers have to move along too or you’d be shouting all alone into the void!
I’m trying the demo right now, but I don’t get reminded of Minecraft and Factorio at all. For me it’s yet another automation base builder. The controls are very rough around the edges, and the UI could use improving still, far too many clicking involved and the roles aren’t very clear. Just my opinion after trying this out.
