Sounds like Screeps or Hackmud! But I think the heavier RPG focus might make it easier to get into. I keep falling flat on games like these, especially with the idea of a few veterans who are automation or async wizards. Definitely gonna look into it more.

Hereditary solely for that ending banger. Or anything by Atticus Ross and/or Trent Reznor. I recently rewatched the Book of Eli and it feels dated, but THOSE SOUNDS.
Brother, you just made one. The answer is deep inside yourself.
You're totally right. My optimism gets around that by hoping if it isn't Lemmy, this federation, that federation, some other new initiative or tech, community will find a way to make itself. I guess my bigger worry is accessibility and notoriety/viability, but I think that will always come in time too. There are smart, willing people out there, and gathering is human instinct.
I just made another comment that elaborated my stance more too.
I didn't realize there was a trend of European users. I haven't really thought about it, but Lemmy could use some sort of translation layer to facilitate multi-but-not-bilingual community. There's a lot of German, French, Spanish, and Portuguese speakers I'd probably love interacting with and would never know! For now I rely on bilingual non-English natives or the little French I remember and just lurk.
I'm kind of sidestepping the point, but I think the average user will always be able to depend on the community to some degree, at least hopefully. All it takes is one savvy and willing user to support a huge section of community, bless the admins. If I'm being pedantic, most admins don't own the hardware anyway, but that's not the point. It's not even the software necessarily. If it isn't Lemmy itself, the spirit of independent web won't go away. People will be always running Tor, I2P, fedi, I'll even include crypto. The community isn't the platform, it's us.
I apologize for the uncalled-for Ted Talk.
To be optimistic, I'd hope the federation would be able to guard against deeper centralization like a more extreme .world or .ml, a la meta or whoever. There's always space for grassroots instances, and I'm pretty sure there will always be someone out there running something or with enough interest to learn.
I just whittle away at it with "eh, I probably shouldn't..." again and again. That is until I've hoarded enough interest or I'm feeling particularly impulsive
It's not a contest, but I think this one wins it for me. I haven't even scanned it yet.
An S with a / for an 8 may not be the most upsetting aspect here, but it's on the chart.

True, that might be more in scope for a client. I do like the idea of a system baked into the protocol that "just works", but I also know nothing about activitypub lol
