My wife and I are both horrible photo takers so I guess our lives will just be a big mystery once we’re gone.

They look like a nice couple

Organic maps is pretty good, though it doesn’t have up to date enough info if you want to use it to find restaurants and businesses. I find it’s actually more accurate for things like paths, benches, other outdoor features basically.

No. I’m not in a bad spot but definitely not as comfortable as I grew up.

I think the reality is no one knows what will work, and that’s why it’s important to try things.

It’s good to suggest new things too, but who are you addressing when you say maybe it’s time we figure out new things? I’m frustrated with the old ways too, but to do new things requires organizing and community building around a new idea. I don’t think it’s very constructive to hand wave at the internet and say “we should do something new” without any suggestion or effort to plan something.

Organizing isn’t my skill set either, so I think it’s important to support what does come along even if it isn’t the ideal thing we’d like to see. Nitpicking every effort for not being perfect will drain energy out of the participants, and it’s good people are trying things. Just my 2 cents.

It’s a hard time to be an idealist right now, but we’re needed more than ever.

To be fair to obsidian the distribution choices have nothing to do with the people who make the game part. You can have great devs with a greedy publisher.

This explains a lot because I hate gambling

Thanks!

That’s good to know, though I wouldn’t know how to do the initial setup either. 😅

Good to know!

To be honest that was very over my head, but maybe I’ll do some research on it sometime. I don’t do self hosting so I would be looking for things that don’t need that to work.

Thanks!

Would love to hear about some you like!

No offense, but this is exactly the kind of active pessimism that this post is trying to combat. The only mindset that creates positive change is active optimism. In other words, hope for better and taking action to try and get there.

Note that this is not to be confused with inactive optimism. “Everything will just work out on its own”. That also doesn’t work.

Active pessimism is the most damaging mindset, though, because it actively drains others of their will to make things better. Feeling hopeless is real and understandable, I’ve been feeling it, too. Spreading it around and shutting down those who are trying to do better isn’t the way to process it, though.

My dad does this so much and I asked him about it once. He said he thinks it makes everything sound very chill and low pressure. I think it makes everything sound passive aggressive, or like it’s a loaded statement🤦‍♂️
