The Persona series has topped 17 million in sales, while Yakuza (also known as Like a Dragon) has surpassed 20 million units sold.
This comes by way of a recent Sega and Rovio press conference detailing key financial stats for the company’s top games. Elsewhere during the presentation, Sega announced that Sonic the Hedgehog has surpassed 1.4 billion units “sold,” though it’s important to note this stat includes free-to-play mobile downloads–such as Sonic Dash, which has reached over 500 million downloads alone–as well.
Sega also revealed that Phantasy Star Online 2 New Genesis has surpassed 9 million users, while the Total War series has sold over 38 million units worldwide. Other notable franchises are Two Point Hospital at 3 million units, Company of Heroes at 10 million, and Football Manager at 24 million units sold to date.
Reddit’s blog post today admits it “didn’t make it easy” to share content like cool conversations and memes to other social platforms — but now it’s finally doing something about it. Reddit is enhancing link embeds for messaging apps and adding more sharing functions like sharing directly to Instagram stories right from Reddit’s app.
If you’ve ever tried to share a Reddit link from the official app on, for instance, iMessage on an iPhone, you might recall it not having a particularly content-rich preview. Now the company is enhancing it with a more robust visual preview of the content, its subreddit name, and the number of upvotes and comments it has.

It should now be easier to deduce whether Twitter has restricted the visibility of a tweet over a possible violation of the company’s hateful conduct policy. Twitter has started applying a label to tweets that it believes breaks those rules, as it recently pledged to do.
When Twitter detects a tweet that may violate the policy, it will limit the reach of the post and apply a label that reads “Visibility limited: this tweet may violate Twitter’s rules against hateful conduct.” The company plans to expand the labels to include more types of policy violations in the coming months.

Twitter says it may limit the visibility of rulebreaking tweets by excluding them from search results, as well as from the For You and Following timelines. Such tweets may be downranked in replies and it may not be possibly to reply to them, retweet them, bookmark them or pin them to profiles.
Twitter noted that it may incorrectly label a tweet as one that violates its rules, so the authors of such tweets can effectively appeal the decision by providing feedback. However, the company said it may not acknowledge the feedback or restore the tweet’s typical reach.
The company is taking a looser approach to moderation under current owner Elon Musk as it has adopted a “Freedom of Speech, not Freedom of Reach” philosophy. For instance, it quietly updated the hateful conduct policy this month to lift a ban on misgendering and deadnaming transgender people.

You can still find hate speech on Elon Musk‘s Twitter. But now, some of it will come with a warning label.
According to Twitter, the company will start rolling out new warning labels on tweets that break its “Hateful Conduct” rules. Tweets with this label will have “limited visibility” on the platform, meaning that Twitter’s algorithm will reduce its reach — that is, fewer people will see the content, as its ability to be found via search or discovered via recommendations will be stifled.
Twitter stressed that the limited visibility will only affect the specific offending tweets, and accounts that tweet hateful content will not be deboosted or penalized in any way. The company said users will be able to submit appeals if they believe Twitter wrongly affixed their tweet with the label. Twitter also said it will “continue to remove illegal content and suspend bad actors” from the platform.
Limiting the visibility on user accounts or posts is typically referred to as shadowbanning, a practice that Musk and his staunchest supporters have frequently railed against.
However, Twitter is framing letting users know that a tweet has had visibility limited for breaking the company’s “Hateful Conduct” policies as a new step towards more transparency on the platform. Of course, any extra information provided by a platform to its users is a welcomed addition. But, again, from a content moderation standpoint, it’s exactly the type of activity that Musk has previously criticized.
Twitter’s policies define hateful conduct as racist or sexist slurs, tropes, and intimidation, as well as hateful references, imagery, and incitement.
Musk previously shared his vision of a platform with “freedom of speech, but not freedom of reach” before. However, so far, researchers and many Twitter users have noticed quite the opposite, often finding that hate speech and other extremist content make its way into the recommendations of the default For You feed.
Earlier this year, Twitter slashed its global content moderation team as part of a series of layoffs under Musk.
