I don’t know your specific coworkers, so this is my experience:
He/they can be a reasonable placeholder for not wanting to confuse non-queer folks with any/all which doesn’t have a great shorthand. He/they gets close enough, especially for something that I don’t have strong feelings about.
There’s also maybe an argument for putting they if you’re ok with it. I had a trans coworker who very much was not ok with people calling her they.
No, any of your accounts should be able to see all communities you might wish to join.
There’s an exception to that, but it’s not worth worrying about for ages. This may be less likely, as you’re on ani.social and that should be the instance best aligned with your interests; once you’re used to Lemmy, you may find that a community you want is on an instance that isn’t federated with your instance. In that case it’s easy to export your profile and move.
Thanks for the additional context! I’ll have to check those out
Great list. I’m a bit confused by the Hotline Miami/post-punk bit though. By the time the game comes out we’d just had a decade of post-punk revival bands with great albums and even some level of mainstream success. Bands like Interpol, the Strokes, Arctic Monkeys, Franz Ferdinand, the Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and the Killers.
I’m similar. I did manage better after installing a bunch of mods. Lots were to mitigate/nullify systems I didn’t want to interact with.
Mods to make equipment scale with level, autoloot, remove inventory weight, remove durability, and I’m sure I’m missing some.
It’s still a slow game with floaty combat, and not my favorite, but I was able to see at least some of what others rave about.
