Yeah and it’s also too much effort for communities to band together around it every year. Someging that requires this much effort from communities should remain once every 5 years, otherwise they’ll stop participating.

Not that it even matters at this point :(

This game is amazing. One of the best puzzle games I’ve ever played

No the app’s very good. I’m only talking about the Android theme. It says beta on it anyway though

Not very good yet though. Definitely beta

PC, mostly because I like KB+M. And if it’s a game that uses a controller, I have the steam deck.

Yeah don’t know if you’ve been keeping up with what’s happening on Twitter, but Nitter doesn’t work anymore

Ok but I don’t post on twitter. I only view posts on Twitter, and they’re pretty much all from relatively big people. So before I can move away, the people with big follower counts needs to move first. The only people on Mastodon that I follow are tech people. All the other people are on Twitter, Threads, or have just straight up left twitter altogether.

Yeah but it’s true. It’s better to ensure Republicans don’t win than try to get your third party in. The problem is not the mindset of the people, it’s the first past the post voting system. If they used ranked choice voting instead, it wouldn’t be a problem.

*used to be endorsed by Mojang. About a year ago Mojang said it’s no longer official. Presumably because of Fandom. See https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Minecraft_Wiki:Community_portal/Microsoft_status_update

Don’t think it’s really necessary. The different wikis don’t really need to talk to each other. But an open source Gamepedia-like wiki software would be great. Maybe it exists already.

Wiki.gg is very good though.

Would you be able to add upvote and downvote buttons? Also could you make collapse work on comments? Thanks for the script! It’s great!

Yes, very cool. And about Threads, I will probably block Threads myself just because it’s a twitter clone, it doesn’t need to be on lemmy. But people should be able to make that decision themselves.

Doesn’t look deleted on my instance

Yeah that’s probably the better one, lemmy.ml probably isn’t the best place for the communities

No that was a bug with the linux package manager when he was trying to install steam, steam wasn’t the issue

What do you mean “limited account”? Do you mean no sudo access? Because I literally wouldn’t be able to install anything except for flatpaks. Are you implying that the breakages are my fault? Cause if so, what did I do to cause them? I don’t personally think I’ve done anything crazy.

Also yes, windows breaks things sometimes as well. But my Linux install has broken over 5 times in the year and a half I’ve been using it. My windows install has broken… not once in the past 5 years. I have definitely had problems, but none so bad that I had to restore a backup or fix it with a live usb like I’ve had to with Linux.

I still like the freedom it gives me, that’s why I still use it. But I feel like recommending it to people who don’t know what they’re doing is a horrible idea.

Yeah I have

That was not the case with lemmy. Most of the instances I tried required manual approval for signups. It took me going through like 4 different instances to find one that didn’t.

To be fair, most people reccomend lemmy.world now, and that doesn’t need manual approval. But there’s another problem, they can’t interact with Beehaw.

“Simply” picking an instance is not actually that simple. Most people just want to go to the site and sign up. Even with email, they know what Gmail and Outlook are. But on Lemmy, there’s no indication of what you’re supposed to pick. Even if you try to go with what seems like the “default” instance, lemmy.ml, you’re met with an announcement saying not to do thaf cause it’s overloaded.

People don’t want to have to make decisions, especially when they don’t have any information to go off of.

But how is it easy to use? It’s easy to use once it’s set up I guess, as long as you don’t touch it. But again, most people will need to touch it I feel like, to install some software or something like that. Even if all you do is update every now and then, I have had updates that just completely break things, forcing me to roll back to a Timeshift snapshot, multiple times. I wouldn’t call that easy to use.

I mean, I guess if your family had no major problems, they had no major problems. I just can’t figure out how they would’ve managed that.

Love the app. Especially love the catch up feature. My only major problem with it is in a thread with lots of comments, tht don’t all load at once, and if you try to collapse a comment and scroll down, it goes crazy while it loads all the replies to the comment you collapsed, meaning I have to wait for all the comments to load before I can read anything.
