Linux as I know it would get updates and support lower-end hardware which I have it installed on my older laptop which I used for opening up Firefox and LibreOffice.

Does removing old drivers would affect compatibility for older hardware?

It was ether from one of the subreddit talking about alternative to Reddit which was around the time of Reddit did changes to API or from someone made post about Lemmy on Mastodon and wanted to try it out.

It depends on which user and their workflow. For example, Graphics Designer use Photoshop compare to GIMP because of native CMYK for printing as well as non-destructive effects. Most people will be fine using GIMP.

I bring this up as I tend to see people on Lemmy and even in online space that talks about open source that would bitch about “normies” being too stubborn for not trying Linux or any open-source projects in general but never think about how much compromise they had to do if they do go down the open-source route.

My guess is that as companies are trying to push 8K TV that 8K disc would come

I don’t just mean Lemmy but Fediverse in general. Otherwise, yeah I am encouraging copule my friend to try it out as well

I swear, he is a fever dream

I meant like as in like leaving Twitter

It be difficult for not only the API is no longer free but also the user limit of amount of tweets being able to be seen each day. You’re just better off scraping Twitter all together

s*x questions on askreddit

Hopefully with LemmyNSFW instance, people would asked there instead on AskLemmy.

But one of the things I’m hoping for is less mean-spirited userbase and the “I am very smart” user. Sadly, it’s unavoidable as it’s the Internet and even irl, people act like that.

Facebook have got data breach a few times which didn’t stop majority of people still using it.

Not exactly and closest you get is RSS-Bot for Mastodon which will post the link to the new article which also means you had to tell the bot to put the usertag of the exact Lemmy Community, sort of like mentioning someones’ username

Tomb Raider on PlayStation is what I say is way ahead of it’s time which I think not many people give the game credit for.

It is one of the few early 3D games that nails the atmosphere and have tension. I always gets sense of adventure and I discovered part of the tomb by myself which I feel like modern games holds people’s hand a little where it feels less fun and more I been told to do XYZ.

Also the way they did the water effect is impressive that they distort the texture UV postion I believe.

I don’t know any that is currently out but I know the Kbin devs are working on a navite app for it

This one is a Metasearch engine but Searxng which can be self-hosted

I get he is a douche but can we try be much more productive with this migration from Reddit instead of doing “Imagine this…”

It helps nobody at all and all you going to get is more angry rather than actually getting anything at of it.

If you got uBlock Origin, you can just write the URL to the filter list and it should block it

Generally, it been alright and has not too bad selection of topic/communities which most is more popular and broad so like anything that’s more specific won’t be there which I know overtime, it will have them so I’m forgiving on that front.

At first, it was hard to know which instance I want to make my account on. I knew roughly what is the Fediverse and how it works but I remember even when I was giving Mastodon a try that I was overwhelmed and wasn’t sure which instance would be for me. Not sure what suggestion I can say to fix it but there is sight barrer.

I agree with Fwgx that Lemmy and also most (if not) all Fediverse app/services just talk little too much about it being self-hosting and all of that. I think some people on Fediverse forget that not everyone is into what I like to call ‘DIY-Tech’ and just more wants to see it as a service and what can THEY (the instance) bring to the table. This doesn’t mean it shouldn’t mention that you can self-host it but maybe shouldn’t be too much of a priority. Maybe at least have some sort of tutorial or official guide as well as otherwise, I am pretty much on my own which sometime I can solve and learn from it but other people may just get annoyed and give up too easily. They will not know there’s account and even website that is a guide to the Fediverse and it only if someone on their timeline or where they followed/subscribe from that they would know those exist.

I think once the Fediverse services/instance prioritized being user-friendly as well as explain how it works without going too technical that may scare some people away, I can see it grow much bigger and I really hope so as I been enjoying it despite some drawback.

You don’t had to but I say it never hurts to least have another backup account but on a different instance.

I read the rules on your instance and was wondering if there anymore for setting up RSS bots as I know some instance want the bot to not over post for certain amount of time
