We've rolled out a spam detector update that should be much better with detecting hacked accounts that post fake "game updates" in comments, among other things. We also did a pass on collection spammers Spam is a never ending battle, but hopefully this update should noticeably improve the situation

Before planning the perfect crime, the first step is to review the dossier specifically the record of the target's routine actions. The higher the player's INS(Insight), the better the quality of this record and the fewer "empty" tiles there will be on the starting map #indiedev #gamedev #pixelart

AfD-Verbot Jetzt! @afdverbotjetzt.bsky.social · 09/09/2026

Nach dem Wahlsieg der AfD in Sachsen-Anhalt ❗ 4 Dinge, die Du jetzt tun kannst❗ #AfDVerbotJetzt #SachsenAnhalt #noAfD #Landtagswahlen #Zivilgesellschaft

Infografik mit dem Titel „Historische Zäsur in Sachsen-Anhalt“. Text: „Der Erdrutschsieg der AfD bei den Landtagswahlen in Sachsen-Anhalt ist eine Zäsur. 43,8 % der Wählenden haben ihr Kreuz bei einer menschenverachtenden und antidemokratischen Partei gemacht.“ Darunter ist eine Sitzverteilungsgrafik der Tagesschau abgebildet. Der Text unten lautet: „Umso wichtiger ist es nun, dass betroffene und antifaschistische Menschen und Strukturen in Sachsen-Anhalt nicht im Stich gelassen werden. Hier sind 4 Dinge, die Du jetzt tun kannst...“.

Infografik mit einer großen Schwarzer Zahl 1 und der Überschrift „Sei präsent auf der Straße“. Text auf weißem Grund: „Zeig den Menschen, dass sie nicht alleine sind, indem Du nach Sachsen-Anhalt fährst, zu Demos, Demokratiefesten, CSDs etc.“. Ein schwarzer Pfeil weist auf folgenden Text: „Das kannst Du schon am kommenden Wochenende tun: Am 12.09. ist der CSD in Halle. Queeres Leben passt nicht ins reaktionäre Familienbild der AfD. Hilf’ mit, dass es in Sachsen-Anhalt sichtbar bleibt. Falls Du nicht nach Sachsen-Anhalt fahren kannst, findest Du auf der nächsten Slide Soli-Demos und Kundgebungen in deiner Nähe!“.

Liste von Kundgebungen am Samstag, 12.9. Text in einem violetten Kasten zeigt Uhrzeiten und Orte für verschiedene Städte, darunter Ahrensburg (11:00 @ Rondeel), Bamberg, Bayreuth, Berlin, Bielefeld, Bremen, Dresden, Düsseldorf, Erfurt, Eschwege, Frankfurt am Main, Freiburg, Fürth, Hamburg, Hannover, Heidelberg, Hitzacker, Husum, Hückelhoven und Königslutter. Darunter steht: „Über 100 Termine allein an diesem Wochenende findest du auf demokrateam.org!“.
