  • I do agree in the end it’s arbitrary, and you’re right there are 2 extremes in strategy, purely analytical and purely reflexive, plus everything in between.

    Admittedly without having played this game specifically using both strategies this is purely speculation. But from my experience playing similar games, exactly to your point of the two strategies, if time and moves are weighed equally, I feel like a player using the analytics strategy would end up with a much higher score than a reflex based player at the “same” skill level (however “skill” levels would be pretty hard to quantify and compare by the two strategies).

    Hope that makes sense :)


  • Looks pretty cool. I know this isn’t the point but I feel like from a games perspective the scoring is a bit off. I don’t think 1 extra second and 1 extra move should be the same value. For me to sit there and analyze what the optimal move set would be to move set would be to move a certain block may avoid 2-3 extra moves, but would take way longer than 3 seconds for me to calculate in my head. Maybe make a move add 5 points to the score?

    I wonder if there’s a game theory way to find the optimal amount that the moves and time should be weighed to make them equal value.

    Either way, pretty awesome you got this working in bash.









  • Personally I disagree, I use small card view and for short posts I can read all the information on it without having to open it. Especially for posts with low engagement like for example a new ‘asklemmy’ post, the question might be interesting but no comments, so I’ll upvote hoping to increase the visibility and hopefully have someone answer the post. Hiding the vote buttons would reduce engagement overall which at this point in time with a low population engagement needs to be made as fast and as easy as possible to encourage it



  • One good thing about multiple communities based on instances is you can have regional communities based on what instance they are on. /c/politics on lemmy.ml is technically neutral, but we all know its meant to be American politics, so opening a /c/politics on lemmy.ca even though it has the same name would serve a different purpose and be centered around Canadian politics instead.

    Overall though I definitely think a multireddit type solution needs to be created for this, that way similar communities could be grouped together and mass subscribed to all at once.
