Just post here. Fuck reddit

Your selfish "protest" is doing nothing but hurting a niche community. If YOU don't like reddit then YOU should stop using it. Corpos will always make greedy decisions. So the API crap was nothing surprising. Leagueoflinux is not the mods subreddit, its the community's. Therefore, you and the mods have no right to rob the community of what's ours. Stop hurting others for your opinion.

Please tell me why is it selfish?

Corpos will always make greedy decisions.

That's why we are trying to show a better path for the people on reddit. Why to stick with shit corp practices when you can be free of those shackles?

Make a new sub reddit then. This community board and the website work perfectly fine to distribute information.

Riot try not to break the client with balance changes level impossible

[–] Brand@feddit.de 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Can confirm. Game is broken.

Any ideas on fixes already?

[–] gibarel@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

there are people trying to debug the issue on GE's discord. but i have to agree, the community has really died out after the sub closed.

[–] Brand@feddit.de 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Can you link the Discord please?

[–] jneos@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

Same here: Game does not launch (client works fine tho). Stuck on Reconnect

[–] Celeste75@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

Note: This does NOT seem to be like last time where a sizeable chunk of the windows community is crashing too. If you look at the bug megathread almost everyone reporting crashing is using linux

[–] AtomToast@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

Can also confirm. We really need the bulk of the leagueoflinux support community to fix this again I feel. Major breakage

My game also does not work, no error message popping up or anything, just keeps coming back to the reconnect button when I try to get in a game after champion select
I'm using Debian 12 and Lutris

Just open the damn subreddit this community here is dead AF, no one posts! The website is also out of date, why are the mods so stubborn?

[–] Lummi@kbin.social 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I don't think the community is dead, it's just that the game was working really, really well on Linux (and I guess even on windows) these past few patches
Nobody comes here or the official subreddit to celebrate this very often because we know things such as this can happen out of nowhere
But if there's one thing that brings communities together very quickly, it's things going wrong; And here we all are!

Really quick edit because I forgot to talk about it: yeah, the website does need more work and maybe a few more helping hands; We should make a thread here to talk about it

[–] vidovic@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Here we all are? The game is completely broken and that amounts to, what, 25-30 comments across a whopping 2 threads? The community has clearly taken a mortal blow, and everyone sees exactly why that is. The platform shouldn't belong to the mods, it should be something that the mods are there to protect for the sake of its users. Instead they have used it to wage their own holy wars at the cost of the community. To quote Shrek (2001):

"Many of you will die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make"

LOL. How dramatic.

Dude, WHY are you so devoted to reddit? It is not the mods own problem, it is everyones problem. The internet is becoming everyday more walled and worst for everyone because people give away their freedom to be in sites like reddit, instagram, twitter.

[–] vidovic@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

I'm not devoted to reddit at all. It's the mods who are so devoted to reddit, that they will happily cripple an entire community just to make a statement about some business decisions made on that platform. How can you not see that?

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The subreddit had about the same amount of posts if not less

[–] KakowiHitoDesu@kbin.social 2 points 10 months ago

The fuck are you on? The temporary opened megathread reached 190+ and youre still here in the low double digits. AND this is AFTER closing the subreddit for like half a year. AND to make shit even worse, some users here are multi-posting in an obvious pathetic attempt to boost reply numbers. Your kind shitted on and fucked our community really well. Hope your "protest" gave you some good main character syndrome euphoria, scum

[–] omoshiro222@kbin.social 0 points 10 months ago

This issue was never fixed on pbe. maybe mods just don't have pbe accounts?? I thoroughly disagree with them re-closing the subreddit. this could have had at least some helpful information much earlier. this "protest" has done nothing but hurt our own ability to address problems by half-baking a rule of "we will only open the sub when the absolute worst happens." Well here's the absolute worst....

[–] omoshiro222@kbin.social 0 points 10 months ago

larping aside, this could perhaps just be a mistake by riot. maybe they just forgot to push the patch to the PBE servers and so now the same issue happened again
