30 (@prewardarkroom) reportedLA metro discourse triggers psychosis. It’s not good. It’s slow, it goes halfway to nowhere, and there’s always someone in distress while cops play candy crush.
-
Penis Envy (@415penisenvy) reportedGirl reading book with big words locks eyes with boy playing candy crush on the 19 bus. She can fix him.

Lensar Dawn (@Lensar_dawn) reported@MR3Dev It's because dev teams are bloated with a bunch of fake girl boss jobs for non-gamers. Because so many devs now are non-gamers, they can't compete in the arena of ideas regarding design and gameplay. Cause the only game they ever played was Candy Crush. So they instead focus on every possible thing possible EXCEPT gameplay because they don't understand it. This is why we get such a push for accessibility. "Blind people aren't competitive in our racing game, how can we solve this?" Or "some people have anxiety, how do we make it easier for them to complete all the achievements, too?" These non-gaming girl bosses scour the internet looking for feedback and complaints they can champion like they're feeding the poor or saving the world. This is why we end up with 15 page options screens, because a girl boss found the one person n the world who has a specific edge case issue and so she advocated for an obscure option until real devs finally gave in to shut her up. Or maybe you're making a card game, but non-gaming girl bosses like Anita Sarkeesian demand you add a "phobia mode" for people who might be triggered by the names of certain cards. When you're trying to ship a game and you're carry 30-50% of a dev team focused on everything EXCEPT the gameplay experience itself, you can start to understand why games are so ******* expensive to make.

Unc McTight (6'2") (@boomerton35) reported@jakehmccoy Country is being looted and has been for 30 years thats the problem His interview is an effort to deny that by blaming candy crush lol
-
Yule The Gingerbread protogen (@TerraTechCorp) reported@Kc1o5 And there are things I don't understand, like suddenly raising the price of Game Pass or buying things like Candy Crush...who wants to play Candy Crush besides mothers and aunts? Oh well, hopefully the new CEO can fix what they've caused these last few months

Alex Minecan (@alecsandrull) reportedMeta charges you up to 4x more per impression on Audience Network placements that convert at near-zero And the toggle to turn them off is buried 3 menus deep in ad set settings When you launch a Meta ad it runs on 4 placements by default: Facebook Feed, Instagram Feed, Stories/Reels, and Audience Network. You probably know about the first 3. The 4th is where Meta sends your ad to random apps and websites to fill cheap inventory Audience Network CPMs are cheap. $1-3. That looks good in your dashboard. The problem: conversion rates on Audience Network are near-zero for ecom because the "viewer" is playing a mobile game and your ad is a banner they accidentally tapped trying to close it. The click was accidental. She didn't want your product. She wanted to get back to Candy Crush Your ad dashboard shows a blended CPM across all placements. The $6 CPM you see is actually $14 on Facebook Feed (where people buy) and $2 on Audience Network (where nobody buys). Meta blends them to make the number look good. Your real cost to reach a buyer is $14. You think it's $6 The fix: - go to ad set level - click "Placements" - switch from "Advantage+ Placements" to "Manual Placements" - uncheck "Audience Network" entirely - while you're there uncheck "Messenger" too (same problem, different placement) Your CPM will "increase" on the dashboard because you removed the cheap garbage placements. Your cost per PURCHASE will decrease because every impression now goes to a placement where people actually buy things One operator turned off Audience Network and Messenger. Dashboard CPM went from $8 to $13. Cost per purchase went from $22 to $14. He was paying $22 per customer while Meta showed him an $8 CPM that included thousands of accidental taps from people playing mobile games Meta defaults to all placements because Meta gets paid per impression regardless of whether it converts. The more placements your ad runs on the more impressions Meta sells. Their incentive is volume. Your incentive is conversions. These are different goals. The default setting serves their goal not yours 3 clicks deep in your ad settings. 2 minutes. Your cost per purchase drops and your dashboard finally shows real numbers instead of blended fiction

DJH32X (@DJH32X) reported@PatManJones62 @nib95_ All in would mean console only exclusives They are in huge financial trouble and have been for a decade Only Activision is making profit with candy crush, wow and cod.

MonsterH21&Hannah Hanalia (@MHanarose21) reportedWHAT ******** YOU PUTTING SUBWAY SURFER, YOU THINK SUBWAY SURFER ARE "AWESOME" AND "BETTER" IN THIS YEAR THAN ANOTHER GAMES HAVE BETTER EVEN ESPORTS SAME AS CANDY CRUSH, WHAT A STUPID WESTERN PLAYER AND PEOPLE. Note: For Favorite Player, no problem for me.

jeftah (@jeftahx) reported@threelinestudio @onyxicca The only problem with the statistic is that they consider your grandma that booted candy crush once a "gamer". Women consume more mobile video games than men, and this has somewhat poisoned the overall statistic.
-
Ryan (@Ryan25700722538) reported@Roo_VT See, the problem there is that mobile games skew the statistics and candy crush isn't exactly what people are talking about when they talk about video games.
-
Microscopic Animal (@bttldog) reported@Hockey_ftw @SkolRant He’s ignoring the actual questions people consider when considering children in favor of diminishing the problems. It’s pure ignorance. There are real addressable reasons, candy crush is not one of them.
-
sugar (@givemommymon3y) reported@CandyCrushSaga @Xbox can u fix the app my game has been down for like 3 days im losing the race g
-
Skol Rant (@SkolRant) reported@Hockey_ftw Sasse is blaming culture that is *shaped* by policy that *he supports* — policy that actively harms parents and makes it more difficult to have and support children. He’s telling you it’s Candy Crush and you’re believing it while he’s the ******* problem.

🎮🏚️Bloodrocutioner (血殺人)📸🤘 (@Bl00dr0cuti0ner) reported@60Minutes Candy Crush...damn this dude hasnt been outside lately has he? How is that even relevant to any of the issues we have today in 2026? Lmao
-
Mustang Sally (@Lo_rey22) reportedlol they live bringing in some random, “hip” item that only shows how out of touch they are - avocado toast & candy crush are to blame for all our problems
-
The Welder (@RadiatedEngine) reportedBack to playing candy crush. He may have a problem-
-
Azure 💙🩶 (@LordazureFGC) reported@LOVETHEW0RLD What irritates me. When I was a kid, my mom would play Sonic 2. Beat it. We played other games. She beat Crash 1 - 3(100% btw). She almost beat Banjo and kazooie. Stuff happens. Now she plays "candy crush" type games. And said video games are overwhelming. Wtf do you mean!? 😭

mary mazzulla overeem melendez (@marylovesrafael) reported@CandyCrushSaga I’m having issues hitting the the play button please fix #CandyCrushSaga #CandyCrushproblems it say try again later

Springbonni1987 (@springbonni1987) reportedAlthough I am happy Crash on the Run is coming back, but come on the company could’ve used actual screenshots instead of fake generated AI images (Also Crash > Candy Crush, no question)
-
Attitude with a side of freckles (@HazeyDaisey17) reportedcare, raise the minimum wage. You know, actual policies that create an environment where people can have children. A system FOR the people. Candy Crush isn't the problem. It's a government run by greedy billionaires who don't give a **** about anything other than ROI.
-
Mr. Ant over lord secret burger (@chewyantz) reported@fishstark @BenSasse Its going to be really fascinating to watch the candy crush people not working, addicted to porn, and drugs try to pay for the 16 weeks. Then when they all run out of kids for the 16 weeks watching their society go into free fall will be a larf.
-
Ben (@GWash509) reported@WestsideLAGuy Candy crush is just the first thing that his boomer brain could think of, but his broader point about smart phones is likely true. The problem is definitely deeper than raising costs or lack of social programs.
-
SheldonBurro 🐴 (@chocolatebodrio) reported@GafieldStan @M1das_OW2 Microsoft owns the IP since 2023 alongside Crash Bandicoot, Overwatch, Call of Duty, Candy Crush, Warcraft, etc.
-
Tbob (@tbob0022) reported@thomaslhorrocks Your are missing the point. It’s not literally candy crush. I assume you know that. The lack of emtional attachment and replacement of it with our phones is a real problem that we are ignoring.
-
JSBlackFrost84 - Retired Console Warlord - Xbox 💀 (@JSBlackFrost84) reported@CharmCityGames @SmokeCapone @asha_shar The whole deal was mainly for COD bro you gotta at least be honest no one on Xbox cared about Crash Bandicoot or Candy crush or WOW
-
Void (@ImaginaryVoid) reportedAn anon post rexosted by BAP and other anons just got taken down for “violating the rules” when it was calling Ben Sasse totally out of touch for saying “candy crush is the problem” ending with “kill yourself” It wasn’t even his account, it was a 60 minutes clip, we can’t even use edgy quips to express frustration anymore New regime same as old regime (except the new ones rules are arbitrary)
-
R33N (@r_esiems) reportedCandy Crush legit getting on my nerves, fix the new update would ya
-
Rob (@SamuraiPizzaRob) reported@conrat4567 Using the term “non gamers” in your own tweet sort of helps make the point that attitudes have not really shifted that much. Which is half the problem. Someone can play Candy Crush every day on their commute and will still say ‘oh my know I’m not one of *those* people’.
-
Don Carlos (@airfrosty) reported@shutupchelsey Not candy crush catching strays. Lmao so I’m supposed to be outchea ******…. Got it. Make it affordable, make it so that I can actually have time to raise a kid as opposed to working my life away.
