Another Pro tip:
If you really want to self host and have good internet speeds, then just use a dynamic dns service to point a domain at your home network :)
It’s free minus the power costs. Sure you won’t be able to guarantee availability but for most personal(and friends/family) use it’s more than good enough.
I say this because the reason a lot of people use VPS is because their ISP won’t give them a static IP. You don’t need a static IP.
Here’s my point though:
You follow people on twitter. If the people you follow stay on twitter, you are forced to use twitter to see what they post.
You follow topics on Reddit. If the community doesn’t leave Reddit, that’s okay. You can still find the exact same community over here or start one yourself.
That single distinction will make this platform more successful than mastodon.
The turn based battles are really only half the game so I would say it’s worth giving persona 5 a shot if you have gamepass and are prepared to potentially sink 70 hours into a game.
I don’t like turn based rpgs either but I loved the battle system in this game. You might be surprised.
Wrong.
It has a way better chance because we don’t need to rely on popular people joining for it to grow. Anyone can start a community for any topic.
I got rid of it 2 years ago for Apollo and tried it again briefly last month.
Somehow it got significantly worse, you can’t even choose how to sort your feed anymore.
I keep upvoting people by accident trying to go back lol.
This feature can’t come fast enough, for someone with small hands I can’t reach the top left of my screen easily.
The problem is a UI thing too. In wefwef for example half the time you go to post something and it says ‘error posting’, your comment actually did post. But sometimes it doesn’t.
I typically go until I see success and then delete any duplicates I left on accident.
I am one of those users.
Don't even feel the need to go back to reddit. This platform is going to take off.
oh.... I saw a meme about this and thought it was just a joke.
TLDR: he likes the format.
I agree. The last Xbox showcase was their best of the last decade. Some small trailers followed by an extended look at a big game was great.
For real, on Reddit an 8 hour old post and nobody will see your comment.
Here I can comment on a post 2 days old and still get replies.
Implementation quirks.
I find even across instances in the same app, the content can change.
One of the growing pains, it will be solved with time.
