This game is amazing. One of the best puzzle games I’ve ever played
That is a huge amount of tomato sauce
Right, but smaller instances break as well. The only solution for that is to have multiple accounts, which doesn’t work very well on Lemmy right now. Hopefully that will be improved
There’s nothing wrong with lemmy.world. I think most people aren’t looking for specifically a federated platform, they’re just looking for a platform, and it happens to be federated. In that case, it sorta makes sense to go with the most popular instance.
PC, mostly because I like KB+M. And if it’s a game that uses a controller, I have the steam deck.
Yooo Rory Blank comics on Lemmy! Rory Blank’s great.
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.
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
Wish it was on Android :( I’ve tried a bunch but none of them are great. The closest was wefwef, but being a web app has it’s problems. I think I’m going back to Jerboa for now.
There are none as good as Memmy though. And none with the design of Apollo (except wefwef, but that’s a web app. It’s ok, but it causes problems)
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.
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.
