Observation: Two types of Fediverse users
  • Huh? Privacy doesn‘t seem to be one of the best selling features, is it? Well, yes, you don‘t have to use your real name, but someone posted an article today, that not even private messages here are private.

  • How do you relax/unwind?
  • I switched to board games instead! There are so incredibly well designed and immersive board games now, that also can be played solo! Marvel Champions, Spirit Island, Arkham Horror The Card Game, just to name a few…

  • Locked Removed
    Is this community just a clone of r/politics ?
  • No, it’s not. You’re not an enlightened tolerant and rational human being by claiming both sides are equally at fault.

    Just one example: I’d agree with you, if both sides would make equally as many false claims. But that's not the case..

    It’s not “Only your side is bad and my side is good”. There ARE liars on both sides. But that shouldn’t lead to the conclusion that both sides are telling equally as much lies.

    Why is that so important? Because you would totally miss out on the rhetorical tactics they use to push their agenda. Take Trump’s caravan, Hunter’s laptop, false election claims. All of them were lies, but had a massive impact. Show me equally as bad examples the Democrats use to push their narrative.

    Also, you can check, if you are open minded or not with the help of something called falsifiability. Ask yourself:

    1. What kind of proof would change my mind about this?
    2. Is there substantial proof?
    3. (Don’t) change your mind.

  • Quick! Name ONE favorite in each category!

    Your favorite lightweight game at the moment

    Your favorite game of medium weight at the moment!

    Your favorite heavyweight game at the moment!

    Your most played game of all time!

    Your favorite game of all time!

    ========== Here‘s my list:

    • King of Tokyo: Awesome art, great table presence, easy to learn, different winning conditions, always fun!

    • Tidal Blades: I love asymmetric RPGs with character customization! But I only got it to the table once. Time will tell if it holds up.

    • Arkham Horror LCG: My heaviest game atm, since I don’t find enough time for longer games. The most immersive game I played so far! I‘m impressed how this game is designed and I love my depressing roguelike experience with Lovecraft theme here!

    • Most played: Dominion.

    • World of Warcraft - The Board Game has to be my all time favorite: It reminds me of times, when we had opportunities almost monthly to get together and play these long games. Again, customizable asymmetric characters, thrilling item management and fighting mechanic, skill trees (expansion), everything I loved about the PC game was so well captured here.
