Basically the title. In the US I’ve heard the fables of King Arthur and Robin Hood constantly. What are some other fabled heroes from antiquity that are less well known? Something from a non-Western culture.

Every day I see another post on lemmy about how awful reddit is. As someone who migrated during the API fiasco, I don’t know why people want to bring the grifting here.

Idle Miner/Mining Tycoon (can’t remember name). Nothing in the game is accurate or even tries to represent real life. It even has cartoon graphics. Now I’m not...
