Even more weird is that posts do show up just in the home feed.

I didn't think infinity would be finite but tomorrow we'll reach the end of Infinity for sure

Cool username. Didn't know custom fonts(?) were allowed

Yeah, came here to say this. The fediverse sites are so diverse that instead of trying to implement everything in one gigaapp it's better to just browse the site in the browser.

I second auto tab discard. I like my thousand tabs and it keeps them unloaded when not used actively.

Eh, this violates rule 1 so I guess the mods will take care of the post

The regular jokes got overshadowed by the image-based memes but they are still goddamn funny.

Yeah, anno when I played I used quite a few of them as well. Especially the prepare carefully mod is one I wouldn't want to switch because I only want to customize the starting pawns and not later in game.

I tried it out but it feels like it's still in baby shoes even though it has been in development since 2018.

This comment made me chuckle.

 

Years ago an app named Candid shut down which caused a pretty big uproar in that community. A lot of people panicked because there was no real alternative that featured post anonimity (basically you had an assigned username to a single post and you could start fresh in another). Lots of people migrated to reddit and others to discord and in the end people let go of their need to be fully anonymous.

Now with the Lemmy migration people don't even have to give up features this big and actually they are driven away by their hatred towards a platform, not by its non-existance so it can be more convenient even if there are some things we have to learn here.

 

For me it's these 3:

  • NGU: grinding robotland + Yggdrasil
  • Immortal idle: grinding follower phase
  • Obelisk miner idle (android): currently on obelisk lv 14, trying to reach the new cards feature. No idea what that will bring but I hope it's better than the contracts which RESET on prestige (for measure, I spent ~3-4 days to grind every contract out in the hopes of it persisting through prestiges. Now I have to do it all over again).

I recently bought a new laptop which can run Lexy's Legacy of the Dragonborn modpack and set it up. It took me ~2 weeks to put everything together but it works and I'm enjoying the mods! Especially the museum which helps tremendously with my desire to hoard items.

 

Now that reddit started dying, people are exploring the fediverse. I'm one of these people and I found lots of inconveniences, which I want to share with you. Lets get a conversation going.

There are tons of instances which "communicate" with each other, but in reality they are pretty much separated. I tried to connect to some Lemmy instances from Mastodon but it repeatedly gave me "not found" results (even though Lemmy itself said I should try that, see pictures).

-What happens if a server goes down or a server keeper decides they want to modify some post or comment? It doesn't seem much different from what spez did, except now you put everything in the hand of another random person. Legal issues are potentially even worse in this case because there is no company behind the site to blame for their wrongdoings.

-You have to create tens of accounts if you want to post on other instances. Yeah, you might be able to subscribe to communities from one instance but you can't post there, only on your own. Maybe I'm missing something here but it doesn't seem like you can post to the communities of other instances.

-Alternatively: create the same community in your instance? That would just make useless duplications or even separate instances even more...

There are lots of other issues with the fediverse, these are just from the top of my mind. Feel free to share your thoughts, annoyances, or even clarifications.
