I loved “the duke” controller. Big hand friendly controller.

Porom and Palom hit me hard as a kid. FF4 was definitely a gateway into a life long enjoyment of deep RPG stories.

You spoony bard!

I’ve been using a community profile that I’ve grown to really enjoy while playing the Space Exploration mod on my Steamdeck. Having a set of menu hotkeys mapped to the trackpads virtual buttons is very convenient. It is also setup to swap to a mini number pad when holding X. It is called “Factorio Steam Deck by Zirbs” if anyone is curious and wants to check it out. Works with vanilla but is designed with SE in mind.

I’ll need to test out the official version again to see how it fairs - I only briefly used it while checking out the switch demo back when it first came out. With the new button support it may be possible to make an even better layout.

I’m all for more accountability and providing some guard rails but a per account limit will not solve much. It is trivial to have and to use multiple accounts to bypass any limits.

It is a tricky topic - power mods in and of themselves are not inherently a problem. If fact, I’d argue that people who take it upon themselves to moderate many communities (successfully) contribute more to the health of a site than the majority of users.

I suppose it is worth diving into the specifics of why a single user moderating multiple communities can be problematic. Then what can be done to address these issues.

Perhaps a tribunal system that allows the mods of other federated servers (who moderated the “same” type of content) to intervene in a conflict. I’d be worried about abuse with any automatic system, but at the very least a way to petition a site owner to step in would be helpful. A way to say “the collective federated mods believe that [@]Spez[@]kbin.social is problematic [due to exibit A, B, etc.] and it is agreed upon than they should be removed as a moderator of m/RedditMigration“

It appears that the kbin.social URL being mentioned will flag the post/thread as ‘spam’. I’m unsure if subreddit mods can override it since it is a sitewide blacklist.

I think come July, Reddit will remember why websites offer free/low cost API access.

Everyone who wants the data will start busting out the web scrapers again. Chat GPT makes deciphering any obscuration techniques (changing class names, table formats, etc.) absolutely trivial.
