Posted in the fandom thread but MTGZone.com is around if you enjoy Magic the Gathering
!MTG@mtgzone.com - main community
!Spoilers@mtgzone.com - new card reveals
!art@mtgzone.com - MTG artwork
There are also format specific communities for Standard, Modern, Pauper, Commander, etc… but they don’t see as much use
Man, what a mess. This site was doomed to fail
MTGZone.com for all things Magic the Gathering
!MTG@mtgzone.com is the main one but !Spoilers@mtgzone.com is hopping with Duskmourn reveals right now
Edit: also !art@mtgzone.com if you just want to see some pretty pictures
Even after Automattic acquired it, the site continued to lose money at a rate of $30 million each year, the company’s CEO Matt Mullenweg had said.
I still wanna know what they’re spending all that money on, because I’m sure it’s not developers or even servers. The idea that they can only be profitable if they’re constantly growing their user numbers is an investor idea that’s doomed to fail eventually and why so many social media sites are crashing right now
I can only assume that the issue is that they’re trying to reduce the number of calls to the original instance. If you’re just scrolling by, you only see the post that’s cached on your own server, and it doesn’t communicate with the original instance until you open the post. Making it so that every time some scrolls by a post it contacts the original instance sounds like it massively increases the amount of traffic to the original instance which goes against the idea of software that supports smaller, self or community hosted servers.
And then they’ll cancel anything they didn’t spam the front page with and blame it on low viewership
Well shit, time to find an alternative
Hell yeah dude
Well feeling less bad about switching to a OnePlus now
I’m convinced that it’s purposeful sabotage on Apple’s part because if there’s one Android user in a group chat iMessage fucks up images/videos/effects for all recipients. So being the lone Android holdout gets you pressured to switch
That’s to be expected. What remains to be seen is how many of them will stick around after the initial surge.
It’s not even “apps only” since they still show sponsored shows at the top. Probably only a matter of time before more ads worm their way in.
It literally isn’t random. They’re good enough that they were able to geofence Apple to hide the fact they were tracking users
Glad it’s not just me that feels this way. There are certain words that it just seems to refuse to auto-complete no matter how many times I try or how slow I go. Feels like it’s biased towards commonly used words and cares less about what you’re actually typing
I think you’re cooking here, maybe you can get a government grant to fund this
