testing restoration
Er...I get this is a play off of the other post, but you could do that in a comment to it if you wanted instead.
As is this may as well be a duplicate post, so I'm locking it.
Thanks for looking this up! Also looking at the article's date...This is from 7 years ago!
Also this link answers OP's question:
"I don't have anybody. My family is in Tennessee and I told them not to tell my son anything that's going on," said Fitzgerald.
Given that this isn't a timely post at all, I don't see much point to keeping this thread open.
‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services
But compare with GOG then. They sell games, you download them with no DRM so you own the download essentially.
This is the model digital media should take, frankly. Anything less may as well be misleading marketing, as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks for this! I think I may have come across it at some point but never bookmarked it for whatever reason, corrected that now!
Surprised nobody's mentioned Weightless ebooks or Smashwords yet. You didn't mention region, so I can't assure these will work for you, but worth checking out regardless to see if they may.
You might look at this intro guide from one of Lemmee's admins, or this one from one of Lemmy World's admins. They give decent overviews, and you can set aside the site-specific stuff where relevant, e.g. Lemmee's image size limits.
I can't recall the exact details, but I've read from some other communities talk of there being some federation slowdowns between lemmy world and other instances, so maybe this is related?
...In fact, this comment in reply to you may serve as an example of the delays, as I responded only a few minutes after yours.
It's the site you're on, so in your case: lemm.ee.
Instance in this situation is usually the same as website.
At a glance, Misskey and associated forks may appear to be Twitter-clones, but dig a little more and you'll find they're a lot more, for better and worse.
The interface is highly customizable, not just with some different colored themes nor a multi-column interface, but that you can stack page elements in columns and set up "antennae" or filters to surface posts including specified keywords and/or hashtags while excluding others via keywords/hashtags as well. There's also what they call "channels" which I think are sort of like groups or dedicated topics apart from hashtags to post to and discuss whatever the channel topic is.
Oh, and because it seems *key wants to have a little of everything, there's Pages, which is basically longform blog posting, and some versions include simple games. There's also options for some other widgets I've not mentioned here. It's genuinely pretty wild compared to the other federated microblogging services with how much flexibility it has and all that it has packed in.
I think the only other federated service I've found that's comparable in flexibility may be Hubzilla, albeit I got the impression it's less user friendly, but still, very customizable and a lot you could do with it.
nvm of course it wouldn't work for OP/me
