When I used Windows I mainly bought on Gog for the DRM-free aspect. Now that I’ve switched to Linux almost completely, I find Steam’s software for running Windows games on Linux to be just about the most seamless and easy to use, compared to other stuff I’ve tried like Lutris and Heroic Games Launcher.

I use SDF and I’m happy with it but his second point is that the instance should defederate/not tolerate Nazis, which SDF doesn’t fit the bill

I’m using MX xfce to revive an old laptop that was struggling with Windows 10. I think it looks and feels great considering the performance.

I really like the tiling but I’m getting a bit tired of GNOME.

There was also a bug where some communities would have @instancename even on their home instance, like lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.world. It would continue to work on the home instance but break federation with other instances. I don’t know if it’s still happening on the latest update.

I feel like a bit of a hypocrite, because I’ll complain about almost every aspect of this game until I’m blue in the face, but I still put like 200+ hours into it. Same for Skyrim actually.

Maybe try sorting by “New.” I’ve got a weird bug right now where old posts vanish if I sort by Active/Hot

On my phone I’ve put the Jerboa icon where the Rif icon used to be and sure enough I now open Lemmy 100 times a day out of pure habit

Without realizing, I tagged my last few posts as “English.” If I go into my user settings and select “Undetermined” in my languages, they become invisible to me. If I select English, they become visible but now a huge number of posts on the site disappear. If I deselect ALL languages, then I can finally see most things (maybe?). It’s kind of a mess and I think the safest bet is to just not select a one at all for your posts until they overhaul the languages.

This seems like a smart way to do it. If mods could make it an automatic one-click thing, and then let users combine those into a single merged feed, it would be a nice way to have a single cohesive community across multiple instances while still enjoying the benefits of federation.

When I first signed up here, I had no clue what “SDF” was. The admins were requesting people go to smaller instances because lemmy.ml was getting hammered, so I chose one completely at random. You’ve articulated really well why I’m confident I made a good choice with this one :)

And now I’ve got an SDF account and I’m starting to poke around the BBOARD…

Yeah, federation’s been kind of buggy lately.

There’s a known bug with some communities like !asklemmy@lemmy.world which hasn’t been federated in 11 days now. Something to do with the address (https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy leads to a 404 but https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.world works, which shouldn’t be happening). There’s also now a version mismatch between SDF and some instances like lemmy.ml which are on 0.18 which probably isn’t helping.

Communities only appear on this instance if they’ve already been discovered by somebody. If you get a 404 error, try pasting “!community_name@home.instance.name” into the community search field. It’ll say “no results” but it’ll actually fetch the community and then you can subscribe.

Sometimes it still just randomly doesn’t work though.

God the recommendations based on my shelf are completely worthless. I gave the Fellowship of the Ring five stars and now all my recs are totally clogged up with art books and behind-the-scenes stuff about the movies. Oh yeah, please keep showing me audiobook versions of shit I already read!

In 10 years if I still haven’t paid everything off, the debt will be absolved.

I have accounts on both because I feel like we’re going to see a lot of changes over the coming months, and I’m curious to see how the two evolve. I’m mostly using Lemmy right now because I find Kbin’s interface a little annoying to use, but they’re both being actively updated so that might change soon.

I hate to be the one to go against the grain here, but yeah I would. I mean, I’d try to continue posting here as much as possible, but there are at least a few communities that I’d probably fall back to Reddit for. Reddit’s popularity means there’s active discussion on some surprisingly niche topics. Like, there’s an active Sumo wrestling sub. There isn’t a community here for that, and even if I made one (which I don’t want to do because I don’t want to moderate) it would just be me screaming into the void.

And I don’t think that’s going to be a concern anyway. There’s no sign they’re going to backtrack on anything, in fact they just keep doubling down.

At least on my instance, you can click the three dots under the post to open up some expanded options, then click the star to save the post.

On Jerboa, there should be a little bookmark icon under each post.
