The problem is that we noticed, but nothing really happened. As it always is here in Aus.

Good point, hadn’t considered the individual repurcussions.

I’m cautious, but optimistic. The devs haven’t given me a reason not to trust them since I first got in to CS1 all those years ago, the DLC has always been fantastic, and the free base game updates that roll in with every new DLC release has been a positive. I’m keen for a more realistic look, and far better optimisations for PC. Unfortunately though it doesn’t matter how good it looks when I’m still woeful at making cities haha.

Just my uninformed personal opinion, but the way I see it is that considering Lemmy isn’t a corporation and isn’t focused on ad revenue, I doubt we’ll see the same tight strangulation of rules like we see on other sites. Reddit was a far more free platform in the early days, but once investors and capital growth entered the mix we saw a vast tightening of what was and wasn’t accepted on the site. This is just my hope though, as I’m thoroughly enjoying the feeling of the “old” internet that Lemmy has given me since I joined last week.
