    I think a lot lemmy user are pc gamer. I have never seen a statistic, but just guessing from the post people do in the jrpg community. And That's fine, but it's fine as well to prefer consoles or using them as well.

    I don't want to say pc gamers all hate nintendo, but probably a few

    Partially that, but Lemmy also has a much stronger anti-capitalist/pro-socialist streak so the corporate pile-ons can be a lot fiercer.

      Lemmy has become a lot less civil over the last several months. It’s been disappointing to see, and I engage a lot less. Reddit banning people like crazy hasn’t helped.

      Yes everyone has gotten so angry lately. I get why… but it’d be nice to still have some nice online spaces.

          Can you blame us? They sue their own fans. Fuck Nintendo.

          I won't use the same words, but the video missingno shared captures the sentiment.

          It's completely fine for you to hate Nintendo, even I don't agree with some of the things that they do, but that doesn't mean spoiling fun for others. You are more than welcome to share your opinion on any related post, for the rest, you can just ignore them and move on.

            Yeah, lemmy users used to be really considerate, so it's sad to see it is starting to get plagued by the same issue as other social networks have.

                I mod a community, every post got a downvote within a short amount of time until we mods got the feature to see who does up or downvotes. I wouldn't do anything, the person never post something, so i can't anyways, but if a person downvote something so much, probably it would just be easier to block a community to not see their stuff anymore. The rule is good and i need to take you maybe as a rolemodel for my communities.

                I agree, Cosmic, our mod, had the same issue in his other community. I would prefer not to ban anyone though, so hopefully this will solve the problem and it won't come to that.

                  This comm has an absurd amount of downvote fairies. I'm not sure which is more pathetic: setting up a downvote bot, or being terminally online enough to constantly refresh all/new and reflexively downvote anything you don't like.

                  Heh, it's my first time hearing the term, that's a funny name.

                    I left when the API changes put third party apps out of business, so I don’t have firsthand experience with it. From what I’ve read here on Lemmy and elsewhere, they’ve just gone off the deep end with automated bans and refusing to properly consider appeals.

                    One thing I saw that at least some subreddits were doing was to ban anyone using the name “Luigi” in a comment or post, even if they weren’t talking about Luigi Mangione.

                    My guess is that they chased away all of the good moderators, and what is left is shitty, power-hungry mods and bad automation.

                    There are communities here on Lemmy that continually talk about these issues with Reddit. Lots of the banned users are ending up here (and with that comes good and bad things).

                      Ah, okay. I left reddit at the same time, during the great exodus. These days only open the site if it comes up during search for some info. It has tons of info from all those users using it for couple of decades.

                          We have added a new rule to the community:

                          Rule # 1: Stay on Topic

                          The purpose of this community has always been to share news and have discussions about everything related to Nintendo, some of these can be good, some of these can be bad. If you want to gush over the new Mario, you are welcome to do so, if you want to criticise Nintendo for their various lawsuits, you are also welcome to do so, as they are all on topic discussions.

                          What is not on-topic is posting "Fuck Nintendo" and it's variations on random posts. We have generally ignored these before, as we don't want to stop anyone from sharing their sentiments, but this has started to increase the toxicity in the posts, for those who do enjoy Nintendo games and the community. You can still disagree, or even hate Nintendo, but your comment must be related to the post. If you just want to discuss general issues with Nintendo, you are welcome to create a post detailing it's failures, as long as it doesn't break any other rules.

                          So, in short, comments like the following are fine:

                          "Man, I hate Nintendo, why can't they give the game upgrades for free like PlayStation?"

                          But comments like the ones below are off-topic and will be removed:

                          "Fuck Nintendo"

                          Or

                          "I hope this flops"


                          Please report any off-topic posts you find, so that mods can take a look and remove them.

                          Thanks

                          P.S: Since this rule has been added on top, as #1, all other rule numbers have increased by 1, so previous #1 has become #2, and #2 has become #3 and so on.

                          My uncle works at Nintendo and he says that 5G towers are part of an enormous reptilian alien conspiracy.

                            I got the first down vote within seconds of making the post, which was hardly enough time to read even the first paragraph. It seems some people just see "Nintendo" (or maybe it's my name) and just downvote it.

                            Not sure why people follow the community if they don't like the content.

                            Definitely your name. Slimes are meant to roam the countryside freely, not be confined to some ranch.

                              No no, it's a slime who is a rancher, not a ranch of slimes. 😀

                                I appreciate the rule allowing constructive criticism while removing the nonproductive commentary.
