And maybe if enough people complain NVIDIA will start behaving less like a bag of dicks?

Wishful thinking, I know, but one can hope.

Isn’t habitat loss at least in part due to climate change as well?

Which makes the parallel fit even better since in both cases the characters of the opposite gender show up in the lore rather than the actual gameplay.

As far as kbin is concerned, it will appear under the “boosted” category. Some platforms handle this differently. To take a random user as an example, this fosstodon user has a bunch of posts which will show up separately from their boosts when viewed from kbin. But looking at their profile from Fosstodon itself, you will see posts and boosts mixed together as is the norm on Mastodon.

On that note, upvotes and downvotes upvote matter even less here (“here” meaning kbin) as the factor dictating comment order in the “hot” ranking is boosting (think retweet equivalent), not the vote count.

Not sure how that goes on Lemmy though.

This seems to be a no strings attached good deal on xQc’s side given the lack of exclusivity clause. Worst case scenario is a particularly bad scandal hitting the platform could tarnish xQc’s reputation such as it is but that’s a risk for literally any platform. However…

As a start-up, Kick is prepared to operate at a loss

Aaand the platform is doomed. Focusing on growth over viability is whats makes you a prime enshitification target.

As exemplified by your comment accidentally getting duplicated four times :]

Eh, whoever takes up that offer is going to learn in short order why the protest is happening in the first place. As will the rest of the community once the content quality drops into the gutter because the would-be replacement mods can’t keep up with getting rid of the garbage. You try moderating a subreddit of any significant size with gimped moderation tools. If anything, this would accelerate Reddit’s fall into irrelevance as users start looking elsewhere for a place that isn’t overrun by spambots of various flavors.

Meanwhile over on kbin, the points really do, in fact, not matter since comment ordering is dictated by the boost count.
