I like visual novels well enough, I just think there’s a lot disingenuous about the presentation and marketing of Telltale’s products as anything but visual novels.

I will never understand the hype for Telltale. Wildly overrated, and they’re bullshit for calling their visual novels “adventure games.”

Yes but all outcasts are not equal. I’m happy to share a meal with communists, but I’ve got no interest wasting my time with extreme right-wingers.

I will never understand why that person thinks Lemmy should be moderated like Reddit. Reddit’s moderation policy was at the behest of advertisers; we have no such masters to answer to here.

“This is as good as it gets”

People have literally never had to say that.

First off it was Tiktok, not YouTube, that started the “unalived” trend, but even then make no mistake, “killed,” “murdered,” “died,” etc has never been banned on tiktok either.

What has been happening is that videos (on tiktok) with “potentially divisive content” are not being promoted by tiktok. You video will not get removed just for saying the word “killed” and will still be fully available for viewing by your followers, it just won’t be promoted on the For You page for strangers.

And it’s fine if you still object to this, but we have to stop conflating the two. Not being promoting is not the same thing as being censored.

Edit: I don’t know who downvoted this or why, but I’m right
