Regardless of how you feel about how the Roblox platform works and if it is or isn’t exploiting child labour you ought to think that this would be something that corporate will make sure everyone refrains from saying it or entertaining the idea when talking about the platform because well… it makes it look bad.

I don’t see how something like this would provide a better shopping experience for consumers then just going straight to wallmart.com or amazon.com or any other storefront accessible through a web browser. The only thing different is that its happening on the Roblox client (not a web browser or dedicated app) and you get a virtual item alongside the physical item (not saying the digital accessories are bad but they’re definitely not much of a “perk” of purchasing through the Roblox client.)

Discord is a good service to engage with communities but what I hate most is when services, platforms and whatnot use Discord as their primary means of official communication like for announcements.

Having to be in a lot of servers purely to get announcements results in an already limited total sever count that one can join to be even more limited.

I know Opera is Chromium based but according to statcounter Opera accounts for nearly the same % (actually slightly higher) overall desktop browser market share (Opera 4.48% : Firefox 5.96%)

Yet support for Opera but not Firefox 🗿

Threads just needs to add more features. It’s pretty bare bones right now and has a lot of room for improvements especially comparing it to Twitter. Once they do that I think it will be easier for them to retain users.

I’m using Connect for Lemmy though I am waiting for Sync to release as a Lemmy client. Once that releases I’ll probably switch to that.
