And without the context that these devs just added Denuvo to their game, you might have a point. They shouldn’t be supported for fucking consumers, time can be tracked by adding as a non-Steam game, and by the point they remove Denuvo, the patches probably won’t be rolling in anymore.

Personally, I don’t pirate, so this is where I’d buy grey market or used on console. They wanna be dicks, I’m gonna be a dick right back.

No, I can almost guarantee you, without doing any research into these, that I would strongly prefer my Steelseries Arctis Pro Nova wireless headphones. A few years back, my dream headset was the Arctis Pro Wireless but with better adjustability for my apparently large head, and after years of dIcking around with the HyperX Cloud II Wireless and getting tired of it constantly cutting out, I went looking and found that Steelseries had made just that (and this time with ANC).

If Noctua made a booster pack for my headphones, I’d buy that, though.

Sure, but we have a huge chunk of the country inhabited mostly by tumbleweeds and people with less-than-awesome education. Plus, the concept of Area 51 has been around so long and has been so prolific it’s been constantly referenced in the mainstream, from Scooby-Doo to Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater.

If you’d like a PS5 community on a less popular instance, feel free to create one and advertise it to build a userbase.

I, personally, believe communities should be hosted in places with staying power so that they never evaporate into thin air. If an instance I’m signed up for disappears, fine, I can make a new account. If an instance a community is on disappears, that’s way more problematic.

I kinda miss when games had wacky version differences. While there was usually one definitive version compared to the rest, having a brand new experience to play by simply buying the same game elsewhere was actually nice to have in some cases.

Nowadays it’s just “oh, you bought Skyrim on Switch? Here’s some Legend of Zelda armor” and “Depending on which platform you’re playing HITMAN 3 (a singleplayer game) on, you get a suit with a differently colored undershirt!”

This is kinda why I wish we had user-level instance blocking, there aren’t any popular instances that match my preferred blocklist and I don’t want to have to go out and request federation for everything I want to see. For example, the top sites I don’t want to see are lemmy.ml, lemmygrad, and exploding-heads, and while beehaw gets all three, they also block instances I don’t find problematic like lemmy.world.

So I ended up on lemmy.world and manually block all the stuff I don’t want to see, but it’d be loads easier if I could just ask not to be shown content from instances I want to avoid.

When I’m at home sitting around thousands of dollars of gaming hardware, I’m going to use that.

When I’m out and about with less processing power, then I retro game.

Personally, for the same reason that I get annoyed when streets get renamed. This community isn’t named the way it is to support hate and the vast majority of its users disagree with hateful viewpoints, it’s named like this so people can find the community of PC enthusiasts that they’re looking for. This is what it was on reddit, thus it’s the same here.

To be blunt, if people don’t like the name, the best solution is to stop posting content here and instead post in an alternative community with a name they find more suitable. Nobody’s here for the name, they’re here for the content and the people and they’ll migrate if those do. Just like reddit’s recent exodus.

According to the article @moon_crush linked, she broke a popularity record previously held by The Beatles with them.

My old person trait is dislike of video-form social media. I consider blaring my phone speakers at max volume disrespectful to those in my surroundings and generally annoying.

Hence why my social media of choice was reddit and is now lemmy+kbin. It’s mostly text posts and images.

I think my kbin.social account is a month old, didn’t make my lemmy.world account until Boost for Lemmy was announced though.

But well, I haven’t even found a way to search for a specific community.

From what I understand, you kinda just search for stuff in the description. For example, if I search for cs@kbin.social, I won’t find it, I have to search “counter strike” and then it pops up.

Why not? kbin literally has an “activity” button that shows everyone who downvotes, it’s public info. Makes blocking morons a breeze because I can say something like “trans people are cool” and then get rid of everyone who gets angry about it.

If you’re scared of people knowing what you downvote, you might need to change your downvote habits.

No, federation means we all see the same content regardless of which site we sign up on with the exception of sites that yours may block.

But be wary that lemmy.ml is a tankie instance and the “.ml” stands for Marxism-Leninism. I generally avoid lemmy.ml communities so I don’t get banned for saying “the uyghur genocide is a real thing” or anything.

Literally just logged in yesterday to request my data, downloaded it today and deactivated my account. Twitter is a joke.
