Definitely Phantasy Star Online - even today I still play and work on it because it’s just the perfect type of game for myself.

You can have links open in NewPipe by setting it in Android’s settings:
Settings -> Apps -> All apps -> NewPipe -> Open by default
And then set things up in there
They also host a Matrix instance at https://chat.mozilla.org!
Firefox fork with features like the sidebar, vertical tabs, and more. It’s a vivaldi-like gecko browser, give it a shot.
In this case, I would check out the Floorp browser. It is a Firefox fork that plans to be more like Vivaldi and have lots of features, including vertical tabs.
Right, the point of the 4 day work week is that it will become the new standard for full time work, rather than the current 5 days.
So all your points are kind of moot, as they will ideally be addressed through cultural changes, employee expectations, or regulation.
I have worked in service/retail, and this argument doesn’t make a lot of sense. Most service/retail is actually 7-day weeks, but the workers average out to 5-day weeks with rotating shifts etc.
All that would have to happen is the workers now average out to 4-day weeks, with a similar level of pay (which is what the 4-day week advocates are asking for).
The 4-day week isn’t about office workers, it’s about everyone.
I don’t get this take - because if this was the plan, why not just shut Twitter down straight away instead of whatever is going on right now?
The actions of the platform don’t indicate they’re trying to kill it, just that they have really bad ideas trying to make money off it.
It depends what we mean by “bad with technology.”
A lot of posts here are talking about how the current young generations (Generation Z and Generation Alpha) are bad with technology as they don’t understand anything, and this is true, but to most people being “good with technology” means you’re good at using it for desired results, not necessarily understanding how things work or how to troubleshoot.
In my opinion: No. Due to the type of technology that the millennials grew up with, they are generally good at adapting to new and changing technologies, so I suspect they’ll be quite good at keeping up. Whether this will hold true for Z and Alpha is to be seen.
Yes - but the vast majority of people are not going to be downloading forks or modified versions of software, they will always get it directly from the source.
The “default”, so to speak, has a lot of power.
Petitions have weight providing they’re coming from the right places. There’s a difference between the random internet petitions that random users make, and petitions coming from bodies such as unions or regulatory bodies.
This is a petition being put forward from a well known organisation, so I would gather it actually has some weight.
They definitely exist - quite a lot of them in fact - it’s just after the big migrations in 2022, the kind of people who tend to get popular on Mastodon are the more “serious” posters, as they’ve eclipsed the memers in popularity. (Eternal September kind of thing)
If you check out the explore and local feeds of instances such as Wet Dry World or Beige Party, you’ll find the meme posters, who you can then follow.
What doesn’t help either is that meme posters never use hashtags, even though they’re the primary way to be discovered on Mastodon. On the other hand, people who are posting “serious” takes tend to use hashtags a lot - this also helps skew the meme posters away from people. Unfortunately, hashtags have gone completely out of vogue and just aren’t used by most people.
Mastodon is implementing full text search soon though, most likely with 4.2.0 (the next version), which should hopefully make things easier.
I would suspect at some point it will come into contact with other matter but yea… That could take a very, very long time.
Well, when it comes to Matrix, they can’t really “compromise” in a way that other platforms may be able to, as their protocol is designed to be as private and secure as possible first, then the features come later.
While “nobody cares about privacy” and features are king, I personally have a lot of respect for the Matrix developers for sticking true to their vision instead of compromising for the sake of adoption. Matrix and Element DO want to be feature-rich, but they will only accept things if they work with their principles.
Furthermore, the Matrix team aren’t the ones “complaining” about adoption, they’re actually quite happy with how much adoption there is - it isn’t insignificant as there’s over 80 million known accounts, which is much bigger than the ActivityPub social media platforms, and many people use Matrix independently which they can’t track.
Not really - Mastodon is specifically about socialising with people you know, not content groups.
Closest thing is probably https://getstarted.social/, although it looks like the person who runs this site hasn’t posted to Mastodon since December so…
Not officially - but they’ll be adding groups in one of their future updates (not 4.2, unfortunately). That will work exactly as you’d expect.
However in the meantime, people use Guppe Groups (https://a.gup.pe/), which are a type of “user” which boosts all posts sent to it to other people following it. For example, I could follow @bikes@a.gup.pe
and anytime anyone mentions @bikes@a.gup.pe
, the post will be boosted to all other users following @bikes@a.gup.pe
.
The above is how Lemmy communities work when followed from Mastodon, as well.
I only self-host a MediaWiki website at the moment, along with a PPSSPP adhoc server for said game that the wiki is related to. I want to self-host a lot more stuff, but storage space is expensive, and I don’t really want to leave things running at home all the time either as it will eat into my electricity bill.
Nextcloud and OnlyOffice are what I’m interested in next, and perhaps a Fediverse platform.
Agreed… Feels like everyone is falling for this hook, line, and sinker.
The goal is to get people back on Reddit, doesn’t matter what you’re doing. For how many people are still on Reddit complaining, it clearly doesn’t matter that much to people.
That’s because ublock.org is not related to uBO. uBlock is the original project that got compromised.
Isn’t this literally what Waistline is for Android? You create your own local food database (which you can automatically fetch info from Open Food Facts or USDA if desired, but not required) which lets you put in as many nutriments to track as you wish, all with graphs and information with different timelines.
No clue if there’s anything like this for desktop.
