This is literally the only reason I've kept using reddit. I hate reddit, but I love the communities I'm involved in and I want to give back to them. As someone that's at least a little recognizable, I can't do that on the fediverse, and that sucks. I'm doing my best to encourage people to move over to this side of the fediverse, as well as continuing to use it myself (granted, more mastodon than lemmy, given more of the communities I'm a part of congregate there -- anime fans, namely) but it sucks that the exodus wasn't as big as I'd hope. But i'm doing my best to contribute to the trickle of users over to a part of the internet that does actively feel more joyful than the wastelands of other services. It's a slow process, I just wish it wasn't so slow-going

More pokemon makes the game objectively better, especially if you care about newer generations for any reason at all

and even if the game hasn't evolved much, a cute game that encourages me and my partner to go on more walks together is a net positive in my life lol

that makes sense. bit of a bummer, engagement is the fun part for me, but also it makes sense that'd be a huge undertaking to mirror that

what's the extent of the lemmit mirror? like, how much can i interact with content mirrored to lemmit?

I really love my framework laptop, even if I spend a majority of my computing time on my desktop. It's just a nice piece of hardware and there's like a genuine mental ease I get out of knowing I can fix my shit without needing to rma it if something small and dumb goes wrong. Also, as someone who got the version with the shitty hinge weight and bad speakers, being able to upgrade them was nice. It's cool being able to upgrade components like that.

But with all that praise, God the firmware is a mess. After hearing reports of how bad the battery life gets on Linux I've been basically restricted into using windows. And I use windows on my main desktop, I don't hate windows 11 like many others, but I'd like the option to use Linux on my laptop and with their software/firmware as it is, I basically just don't have that luxury. I hope they talk the talk with making these changes, but it seems like framework has done that so far so I'm genuinely hopeful. Just hope it's on a reasonable time table, too

do chinese players keep their accounts on these servers from before the wipe? I'm a hearthstone player and I remember feeling so bad for the players that had invested all that time to build all those decks and collect all those cards and then suddenly they just poofed out of existence.

I don't expect that data to have been preserved, but it'd be nice for the CN playerbase of blizz games to actually get their account back

honest to god if I wasn't a valorant player or looking forward to 2XKO as a fighting game enjoyer I'd likely have made the switch to linux a long time ago, linux stocks are way up (metaphorically speaking) and windows is just like. Fine? I don't mind windows 11 but I just feel increasingly like I have less reason to be on it.

thank you! do you have any resources for someone new to using i2p?

[-] pixel@pawb.social 3 points 1 month ago

[-] pixel@pawb.social 10 points 1 month ago

agree with everything you said here, but if im not the pedant someone else will be -- sedentary, not sedimentary. At least I don't like to think I'm sediment
