    Bury Me My Love is a beautiful and sad visual novel about Syrian refugees trying to escape from the civil war. It really gives an insight in the bleak reality they had to face. I also had a sad ending which left me crushed and still haunts me after playing the game many years ago. Highly recommended.

    I loved Paper Beasts by Chahi. It’s basically a puzzle game on a weird alien planet populated by… paper animals. Wonderful visuals and interesting mechanics. I suggest playing it in VR for the immersion, if you can, but there’s also a standard version (the “Folded Edition”).

    I was both on Reddit and Digg in 2007. At first I liked Digg better because it seemed a livelier community. But then I bought a Wii and started browsing on my tv, and the Digg UI was too heavy to load (it was pre-v4 anyway). So I started visiting Reddit more and more because the interface was lighter and could be loaded by the browser… and found out it liked it more. The discussions were more in depth, the users seemed more “serious” there - even if the silliness was everywhere, it was more smart comebacks and puns than just recycled memes. I felt more… at home. And I have to say that’s why I’m here too - compared to all the alternatives, Tildes is the one that feels more like that early Reddit, and I hope it will maintain that same “spirit”.

    I agree 100%. I had exactly the same experience as you and I wasn’t even a heavy user, just a casual lurker here and there. But I swear, every single time I closed my browser I was angry and nervous, and deleting my account, after a few of Elon’s shenanigans, has been truly liberating. I don’t know what it is but that website brings out the worst in anyone, even people that I followed and respected.
