Was going to ask if you're a bot due to spamming the exact same post in 55 different communities if I counted it right, but looks like by this comment above you're not. Still, seeing the exact same post several times through the week is a great way not to promote those games, but to scare or anger people away from them.

Maybe rule 3 could be expanded to forbid low effort posts, or something in those lines?

The text is obtuse and the article's title and cover are pretty clickbaity, so here's a tl;dr:
In the US, according to the article, it's possible to lend multiple forms of digital medias and software as you'd do with physical medias. But when requested to extend this understanding to games too, the US Copyright Office denied the change.

The team seems rather inconsistent, or perhaps erratic, from my experience some years back. Not glaring issues, but small things that keep building up. In the RetroAchievements case, I can't help but wonder if they either want to have a walled garden, or if, looking at precedents from other companies, such as Microsoft's "EEE" strategy ("Embrace, Expand, Extinguish"), if they aren't trying to kill competition. And for the second point, it reminds me that the owner would throw hissing fits, at least up to some years ago, when projects he'd fork into Retroarch would change licenses, which, along with being an all emulators in one place project, making people draw in in detriment of stand-alone projects, makes me I fear it might be a precedent.

Ooooh, interesting! Thought it could've been one of DOS era's pre-rendered games.

Is it from some game?

From the last paragraph of this 20 paragraphs-long article:

Long story short? There are questions around the future of .io, but nothing’s been decided yet. Expect vested interests to make sure it sticks around for the foreseeable future.

Blocking, yeah.

Putting the tone aside, I usually browse the All tab for that reason, and also because subscribing in Lemmy is weirder than it was on Kbin (even if it doesn't crash the page like Kbin did). Nothing personal against the communities, and sure, it's an exercise on patience, but after some time, the results become noticeable as my feed gets fine-tuned into what I want to see.

Adicionando ao comentário do nossaquesapao, não sei quanto à usabilidade, mas Facebook a empresa sendo quem é, se bobear é mais seguro para os seus dados que você pinte o teu CPF no capô do carro e fique andando por aí.

If you are indeed autistic and it is a problem in your daily life, knowing what is the problem is the first step to dealing with it, I think. You could even find strategies to turn hindering aspects of the condition into strengths, by knowing where your issues may stem from. And on the bureaucratic part of diagnosis, sadly I can't comment as I don't have much experience with that part.
