Started tweeting too much PoGo from my main, so embraced it with this. L50, day 1(ish) player. Playing for the Pokemon; continually appalled by Niantic.

The same but different. bsky id in my name ^

been debating whether to make this PoGo alt on Bsky, and have gone for it.

I also made a starter pack that has 50+ of the best and most active people I follow (or know of) here, to get anyone started that wants to make the move too.

Hopefully all the shitheads of the PoGosphere stay here, keeping the toxic swamp contained, but I suppose some will leak over eventually. They won’t make my starter pack 😎

Nearly all set up on 'the other app' with all my various accounts, so I can unplug from twitter for good.

the toxification and demise of this site has been sad.

I was here when I had to text it from my nokia 3310 if I wanted to tweet on the move. good times.

RIP

@theverybest5000 Congats TVB! lovely to hear you are doing well. long may i remain this way.

@PurpleFeebas Would be good if remote passes weren’t unfeasibly, spitefully overpriced.

Once they reduce them to a sensible amount it will be a great feature. For now, it’s ignorable.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@FlareblazeA @g47ix Bcz as it is, very few people can get involved with these raids.

We don’t need stupid pay-to -play features when people are desperate to actually play themselves - except Niantic says FU to those people, and only goes after the vulnerable whales.

Unethical and nonsensical

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@FlareblazeA @g47ix What I dont understand is why they would add this, effectively adding another person for half an hour - instead of actually enabling people to play this feature.

If they allowed remoting, they could quadruple the income on each raid, AND multiply the number of engaged players

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@Jbrads829 It goes without saying not to give them any money.

Or should. Sadly still far too many people endorsing the horrible state of things

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@pokedaxi Nearly. Still the long overdue shop admin to deal with before it’s usable.

Once the price of remotes is made acceptable, then it will be a W. For now, still not.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@pogo_central Still redundant until this is addressed

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@PokemonGOHubNet Still a DOA feature with passes being unfeasibly expensive.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@LeekDuck Toxic pettiness is Niantic’s nature.

Still a useless feature without feasibly priced remote passes.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@thepokemodgroup Unfortunately still useless while remote passes are excessively overpriced

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@ItsFleeceKing Remote passes are still excessively priced though, so we can stand down

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@ItsFleeceKing They don’t want us to remote raid on our own gameplay and community based terms, but will try to bully us into buying their overpriced passes to ‘catch them all’

A truly odious, unsavoury company.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

This slop sounds like Niantic

[Praise The Camera @praisethecamera]

The future of photography is “lens-free”
The camera creates a prompt based on the geo data and that then turns into an AI photo 🤯

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

Eh. Same raid.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

@MYSTIC7 It’s totally unethical to prey on the vulnerable people who are spending to excess on a toxic company like this.

Shameful behaviour.

[@bossdokins.bsky.social @BossDokins]

A new season means Niantic about to push loads of tickets out

Your regular reminder to ensure you’ve turned off the ability for people to give them money in your name, in case you’ve got anyone in your list that would do that.

And ofc, be sure you do not give them any yourself
