    You’ll need to sign up for a new account on the other instance. I’d recommend you persevere with getting a lemmy.world one and use that as your main one. Keep the one you’ve got in case of an lemmy.world outage.

    Content is generally shared amongst the main instances so you’ll generally be able to see the same stuff wherever you create an account. Most of the Lemmy apps have multi-account functionality so you can add both.

    I hadn’t really noticed this, perhaps in hindsight you’re correct. Can you be more specific?

    Gareth in The Office was pervy/racist who pretty much needed the abuse to prevent him making other’s lives hell.

    With Maggie in Extras I saw it as a best friend banter type thing. The piss taking was done in private and came across in jest.

    If you’re referring to Karl Pilkington, I think he new what he signed up for, was playing an exaggerated version of himself for comedic effect and made a lot of money in doing so.

    When Derek came out I couldn’t get past the obvious, pretty much where I stopped following his material.

    As a massive fan of his older work, I was disappointed to see he has since turned his hand to creating transphobic jokes in his more recent material.

    Also find it a bit weird that he consistently proclaims how much he loves animals more than most humans.




  • Anecdotally Fifa (EA FC or whatever they’re calling it now) would have to be up there. Hadn’t played it in years but gave it a go last season as it was free on Game Pass.

    They’ve combined the addictiveness of card collecting with loot box mechanics, FOMO and moving the goalposts (pun intended) to get the best players. The gameplay also seemed pretty rigged to prevent grinding rewards out.

    Then when the new game is out, rather than dishing out all the rewards to those still playing it instead becomes infeasible to unlock any more decent players so you’re pretty much stuck with what you have.

    Even if you pay full price for the next game you’ll have to use low stat players as they only seem to start releasing decent ones half way through the season.

    Stops carving the Sunday roast and holds off putting the apple crumble in the oven…

    But we are one of the most multicultural societies in the world and have long since adopted everyone else’s cuisines.

    By this logic the Japanese don’t have curries and the Americans don’t have pizza, or any other food for that matter.
