For the views which state “swipes control snake”, is it part of the gag that by and large swipes do nothing? Or is that because I was too hasty loading nihilism?

It must be really hard to play when you can't swipe. I suggest playing determinism; it should completely eradicate your control issues.

After clicking nihilism, determinism was my next stop for sure. I didn’t have any expectations that weren’t met!

If an application developer expects people NOT to react defensively to automatically launched external applications, they are deluded. That link does not open from a user-initiated event, even if it technically does.

That's fair, but if you don't think it's meant as a joke, what do you think the intention is?

How did you come to the conclusion that I don’t think it’s meant as a joke, after having that openly explained to me on a public forum?

That kind of mind-reading is right next to gaslighting on the dark triad trait list.

Your direct response to the person explaining that it was a joke was literally ”Right. Joke.” Was that not sarcasm?

While we’re handing out psych evaluations, you seem oddly keen on finding malice in the behavior of others.
