   Apparently, the Zelda Minish Cap decomp is almost done. There are even some interesting discoveries like how the game actually uses 3D hitboxes despite being entirely in 2D.

     @deadheat @Duine @xianc78 troons ruin everything, this is why discord and its consequences were a disaster for the nerd communities
     it gets so bad that some retards publish links to their mods and work and other shit to discord ONLY and never leave it anywhere else, like nigger i am not verifying my phone number AND pretending to be a faggy libtard just so i get let into the server and can download one fucking mod

     Real nerds would proudly document in autistic detail everything they could in that page and actually avoid too much direct contact with strangers. I don't know what happened to retro vidya communities, but they are in terrible state.

     @dia @deadheat @Duine @lina @xianc78 Discucked has killed online forums.
     What killed web hosting in general is soycial media.

     @xianc78 @lina @deadheat @Duine @dia XMPP rooms do exist, though for the most part it's used only by nerds and anonymity guru's.
     This is great, but it also means 99% of these rooms will have an ancom-style atmosphere.

     @lina @deadheat @Duine @dia Were XMPP rooms ever popular? It seems like IRC was always the go to standard for multi-user chats. Hell, even back in the early 2010s, IRC was actually making a small comeback before Discord came around.

     @dia @deadheat @Duine @xianc78 discord is not a replacement for xmpp either!
     neither is reddit a replacement for forums

     @ikezawa @deadheat @Duine @lina @xianc78 @dia No, these rooms are on XMPP.
     Discucked rooms are on Discucked, and Matrix rooms are on Matrix.

     @ryo @deadheat @Duine @lina @dia I know, but they seem to be rarely used even compared to IRC.

     @ryo @deadheat @Duine @lina @dia
     And even if it did get popular you could always just go to the more obscure rooms/servers. It's decentralized so there can be something for everyone.

     Also
     >ancom-style atmosphere.
     That's literally no different than Discord.

     @xianc78 @deadheat @Duine @lina @dia The main difference is that Discucked got subverted into only allowing ancoms (or soycialists or communists or tankies, same thing anyway, except ancoms actually know computers unlike the others), whereas XMPP has an ancom atmosphere simply because very few people in other tribes even consider giving XMPP a try because "it's so hard" (no, it isn't).
