Reddit has twice in the past (2017 and 2022, I believe April 1 both times) made r/place - an open canvas where anyone with an account could place a single pixel in a color of their choice every 5 minutes. It’s a fascinating social experiment, and was a lot of fun seeing images emerge, and communities spring up around coordinating efforts to make their mark. Doing it again at a somewhat random time only a year after last time is clearly an attempt to distract from the multiple reasons people are currently upset with Reddit, and it also clearly isn’t working, judging by the general tenor of anti-spez (Reddit CEO’s username) sentiment

Data privacy isn’t to protect you from getting caught doing wrong things, it’s to prevent malicious actors from having the information to manipulate you. You don’t want phishers to have access to your life details that security questions ask about, even if each one is nothing to hide. You don’t want scammers to know where you went to school, who your teachers were, and what clubs you were in to build up a convincing backstory for their facade. You don’t want someone who wants to get something out of you to know who is important to you and threaten or impersonate them. It’s not about having something to hide, it’s about hiding personal details from those with malicious intent

Coloretto is one of my favorite simple games, and has a good 2-player variant

Honestly no, I was mostly subscribed to smaller subs, and only the general communities here really have a critical mass. I’m definitely interacting more with general communities, but I really miss communities around niche interests.

I have hope that they will be here with time, but for now there’s a bunch of empty communities with no posts and a mod who has never posted anything anywhere, just made a few dozen communities with the names of popular subreddits, and even many the communities that aren’t in that situation have 3-4 posts and a couple dozen subscribers

Strongly agree, Skull is super simple to teach and even to make a copy, and can have great group dynamics. I don’t think it works with 2, though, but it’s small enough that having it as an option is reasonable

Not only vote, but get involved in local politics. A lot of transportation and zoning issues have real things happening at the local levels where a single individual can make a difference

The Dutch drive, too, they just tend to cycle for shorter trips. No one serious is seriously saying ‘replace all cars’ as a solution for the foreseeable future
