Gamers Nexus and The Linux Experiment kinda rubbed me the wrong way in a way that I'm not sure how to describe, so i personally couldn't get into those when I tried BUT I can vouch that they are both popular and Gamers Nexus in particular is well endeared by the PC/Gaming community
I think this point is really important, and allow me to go one step further: I work in the public sector of education and purchasing technology is such a complex issue that IT governance has to be involved with decisions like this. That's to say that, without a governing body to review purchases (outside of whoever handles the actual procurement, i.e. funds leaving the bank account), mistakes like this will happen.
We can be upset with planned obsolescence, but there's distinctly a human error here where there wasn't enough research and planning.
This is funny when you consider that "see" in this case is very loosely interpreted. murder

If so, please post your latest pictures here. Not just to celebrate Francine as an icon of Richmond, but to also celebrate her potential first post on Lemmy's Richmond server!
I haven't gotten to see Francine since I moved (just ever slightly too far from that Lowe's), so my latest is October, 2022.
It truly was a dumpster fire. A part of me did wish he would backtrack but he just doubled down.
It's telling that they're not even willing to work with the third-party Reddit apps. They could be true money makers for Reddit, or at the least, a way to minimize Reddit's losses.
Also, doubling down and deciding that the subreddits that will be going dark in protest mean nothing. He's said as much in the past that the moderators are expendable, though, so it would not be a surprise if Reddit administration or spez personally decides to usurp those mod teams.
I'm with you. I think Illumination isn't the preferred option... But since it's what we're getting we can only wish for the best. WW definitely did have darker parts. I think maybe the cartoony, celshaded style just took the edge of for most of the game except for when the game reminded you that now is serious time.
I think we also all have the OG CDi burned in our brains, which can never be forgotten.
I felt this way about Twitter early on because Twitter for me was the third social media platform I ever experienced growing up, only with MySpace and Facebook before it.
It's sad to see Reddit go this way, but my solace is that the communities that make Reddit will survive one way or another. I'm just hoping Lemmy sees a better adoption than Mastodon has so far. I want both to thrive but I'm especially hoping for Lemmy since I spend/spent more of my time on Reddit.
I definitely understand your concern here. I myself am on the fence about this.
I personally enjoyed the Mario movie too, and agree with your points. The plot of Mario is simple enough that it worked in their style. With Zelda, the whole atmosphere and plot are more dark and serious, and I'm not certain if the fit is right.
I think we might tend to land at the assumption that the style they'll go with is along the lines of a "darker" Zelda game like Ocarina of Time or Twilight Princess, or even BOTW/TOTK.
But maybe if they go with "Toon" Link from Wind Waker, etc., it could work. I think more than anything they need to be extra careful about how much story they try to take on.
I'm not sure if I can link to posts from Reddit, but I believe it is on the ModCoord subreddit, top stickied post: https://www.reddit.com/r/ModCoord/comments/1401qw5/incomplete_and_growing_list_of_participating/
Sorry but as an added note, I don't know if I'd say it "pulls" from here. This is just where the running list started.
I tried Pop!OS and I liked it a lot, but I wasn't big on the built-in store for downloading apps as it felt a bit clunky to me. Still, it's a solid option. Kubuntu was a pretty decent one too that I tried.
For me I found myself going back to Windows because of hardware incompatibility. I know that of course you either need to be really good at building compatibility yourself or scouring the Internet for a solution someone else already found, but unfortunately it was one of those cases where searching ended up with those results where it was from several years ago and they just said "I figured it out" without added context.
I partially agree with you that he's got guts, but I think more so that you hit the nail here:
Spez should honestly learn to read the room.
I think there may be something genuinely not right with his sense of social awareness. I'm not a doctor psychiatrist, etc., but when I read the post today from iamthatis about Apollo shutting down, the quoted text that came from spez really felt defensive to me.
