This should be higher up. Roguelite is a dead term imo. Language has evolved such that roguelike and roguelite are basically the same. The nuances change between every person you ask. So the debate is completely pointless. Just call them all roguelikes, and if you are referring to the traditional ones, call them as such. Traditional, classic, true, whatever.
I’ll be honest, I don’t even know what you’re asking. Discord owns all data on Discord. Server “owners” do not own anything from a data security standpoint. If you are asking a question in good faith, please rephrase it into smaller sentences. If you are arguing in bad faith, I have no desire to continue this thread.
Haveibeenpwned.com lets you check if your accounts are compromised
I’m sorry my guy but how in the world are you suggesting pirating live television
I’m sorry, but it’s probably in your best interest to do some research and actually read the discord Terms of Service and Privacy Policy before arguing about something you lack knowledge in. Creators of a Discord server are not responsible for members’ data that they send to Discord. That relationship is between Discord and the Member, not the creator of a server. Any “contractual agreement” you are talking about is covered when you click “I agree” when creating an account, the devs’ accounts included.
This is a ridiculous argument that has a correct answer that Discord themselves will tell you.

This is the only point that matters. Even if AI is here to stay, that’s fine, you just don’t use it when specifically highlighting the demographic most threatened by its usage. The post was just a bad business decision; they should have known how it could come across. It’s their job to know that kinda stuff before hitting Post.
Yeah. The moral is “every and all devices have an unknown number of zero-days inactive or actively being exploited at any given time”, not “iPhone is just as insecure as everything else”. There’s a difference, and credit is deserved where it’s due.
This is kind of a ridiculous take. I hate iPhones, but this is not a “hurr durr iPhones bad and insecure” moment. I implore you to look at the sophistication of this attack. The attack chain is so ridiculously long and complex, and only because of the security of the iPhone. This is not a script kiddie attack, and could only be executed by a very determined party.
No device is secure, and any and all computers could potentially fall victim to an attack like this, but it is absolutely ignorant to say that iPhones don’t offer any more security than other devices.
For me, I can’t get over the obvious banding and gradient artifacts, and it’s just too distracting.
Please use punctuation. This is incredibly hard to read, especially to those who are dyslexic.
Thanks for the info, that’s absurd. I don’t know why more people are talking about this then.
Cursory research about this seems you can replace it yourself for $10. Are you sure about this?
It’s like driving to a city just to get out of your car and shout why you hate that city, then leave. It’s just like… why not go somewhere else then and move on with your life?
I do, but what I don’t understand is subscribing to a community on an instance you hate. Or did you not realize that this is a Lemmy world community?
Imagine going out of your instance to a community on one you hate just to post hate about it. What happened to blocking and moving on
What is the point of ever asking a question on the Internet if it should always just be met with “do your own research”? For the record, I did Google around and I couldn’t find that Wikipedia article, and when I did see it in another comment, I didn’t still understand the concept. This comes across as incredibly gatekeeper-y. Don’t understand why I’m not “allowed” into the conversation because I’m being barred from context because I don’t understand an initialism and my research failed.
Wtf does EEE mean, why must people assume everyone knows every acronym
My opinion: Follow the Apex Legends one. Don’t tell the public literally anything. Build up zero hype, and then release it out of nowhere and let the game speak for itself. No hype = no overinflated expectations or impatient gamers. Obviously not every studio should do this, but I wish more would. I enjoy being pleasantly surprised, rather than wait for a game for years, only for it to be overpromised and DOA.
You were the one that called it spyware. Your opinion is valid, but my opinion was that Lemmy users tend to exaggerate when talking about closed source software. People are so quick to trash on anything not FOSS, then when asked about sources to back claims up, they are mostly anecdotal and not directly related to the additional claims. Case-in-point, someone asked why you called it spyware, and you responded with the first two points referencing a clauses of a privacy policy that is nearly identical to every social media platform in existence today, and the last point referencing security flaws. The security flaws, in the past, were mostly around cookie stealers (which isn’t Discord’s fault, literally any browser is at risk if you download malware), and some chromium bugs. A lot of the “hacks” that went around were just scare-pastas that were just made up too. So, no, I don’t think there are notable, active flaws that are currently being abused by third-parties as you claim, because Discord has a financial interest to keep their platform secure. If there were active holes being exploited and they just sat around and did nothing, it would upset shareholders, which you noted they did have.
So while you are entitled to your opinion, I do challenge you to consider the other sides of the argument, and consider that closed source software users may have good reasons to use such software. Also do consider that some of the points you made are hyperbolic and that you may be moving the goal posts a bit with your claims.
I wish you well, take care.
Is it any easier to find roguelites instead of roguelikes, or vice versa? The terms are so similar, and everyone has a different definition, that any nuance when tag searching is lost. I respectfully disagree, I feel like anyone asking where to find traditional roguelikes knows where to find them better than finding roguelikes instead of roguelites, etc etc.
