I thought it was about waterboarding

 

So I just finished the game and had some alternate story ideas. I'll share mine and I'm curious to hear other people's ideas. These are just for fun, so don't get too riled up. I'm a sucker for dark endings.

(Spoilers ahead!)

  1. Mineru was a traitor all along and was conspiring with Ganondorf. She was jealous of Rauru getting to be king, and when he marries Sonia she becomes king and has more power over Hyrule than Mineru. In the cutscene where Ganondorf kills Sonia, it's Mineru who does it instead. Link only learns of this at the end, when mineru leads him astray at the bottom of the depths where Ganondorf is.!<

  2. After defeating Ganondorf, Zelda does not transform back. She remains a dragon and wanders off into the distance. Link is saddened by this. The ghost of Rauru sees this and tells link to cut open his hand. His secret stone was inside, and link eats it, becoming a dragon himself. He flies into the horizon to be with Zelda as dragons.!<

  3. Another idea for Mineru is that, instead of being a traitor, she's actually the Twilight Princess, Midna in her Twili form. Instead of the Owl mask, she woulda had her Midna mask (which looks like a sage mask!)!<

One thing I wish these news sites would cover is that it's not only the API changes that people are upset about.

This was just the straw that broke the camels back. It's been a long time coming.

My personal gripes were:

  1. Corporate astroturfing (this is the #1 reason I left, the entire front-page just felt like r/hailcorporate but nobody is aware)
  2. Reddit official app served ads in the damn comment section
  3. Bots of many varieties. Karma farming bots. Politically motivated bots (especially on r/Canada)
  4. Mod abuse (r/antiwork for instance)
  5. Censorship (r/fencesitter for instance)
  6. The stupid NFTs being pushed

Also, the API situation will make it harder to moderate subs without the tools that were previously available

I have nothing against it OP for sharing this, but the headline of this article by PCgamer is super clickbaity, witholding the key info until you give them a click. There was a subreddit called "saved you a click" that was basically taking clickbait headlines and putting the "prize info" in the post title. I wonder if there will be a Lemmy equivalent.
