  • What have you been playing and what do you think of it? 7/16/23

  • Playing bits and pieces of a lot of stuff and nothing’s really sticking. It’s frustrating, haha.

    Replaying Control because I never got around to the DLC back in the day, and I want to play it before Alan Wake 2 comes out. This is my main game right now, but I’m just slowly picking away at it.

    Diablo IV - omnipresent side-game for me. It’s grindy, and repetitive, and the end game and itemization need work, but I enjoy the combat so it’s been a good podcast game.

    Dave the Diver - Great game, but where I’m at currently it’s become more mission-focused than I’d prefer. Still liking it, but my progress has slowed quite a bit.

    The Rift Breaker - Picked this up in the Steam sale. It’s fun, if a little confusing sometimes. The UI could use some work.

    Yet Another Zombie Survivors - Despite the terrible name, this one’s actually pretty fun. I’ve played an absolute ton of these things and some are more interesting than others… being able to add 2 members to your squad, as well as some of the abilities and stuff, make this one stand apart a bit. At least for a couple hours of mindless fun.

    Voidigo, Revita, Crab Champions, Dropsy, and Going Under (among others, honestly) are some more that are rotating in and out as I try to find something that I’ll stick with for a bit, but nothing’s scratching the itch so far.

  • Anyone else missing posts in smaller Lemmy communities because they are overshadowed by the popular ones?

    Jump

  • Doesn’t stop them from showing up via All and Local, which is what I want to do without having the completely block these communities. Just my preference.

  • I haven't looked at the PR, but if it's really that simple, that doesn't seem like the full solution. I don't particularly want a sub with 10 users popping up on the front page after 3 upvotes just because it got to the top of that sub. Sub weight, as mentioned in the top comment here, should probably be taken in to account.

    Be honest, do you still use reddit?

    Jump

  • Yeah, I do. There's just more content there. More articles. More questions. More discussion. Not all of it is good, but a lot of what I use reddit for is taking the temperature on things... games, movies, books, general opinions on news articles, etc. I like Lemmy, but it doesn't have the userbase to make this my only "front page of the internet" for now.

  • Meta's Threads has had its daily users down 20% since Saturday and user time spent on the platform is down 50% ~ CNBC

    Jump

  • Was literally thinking as I read the headline "Ok... how did Lemmy's numbers fluctuate after the initial burst?"

  • Do you use the swipe to type feature on your phone?

    Jump

  • This is the way to do it. Autocorrect is doing 90% of the work in either case anyway, lol.

  • If Lemmy is going to come up with their own version of Reddit's AMA, what are you going to call it?

    Jump

  • I like that one, but a little misleading if it's an IAMA. Maybe Lemmy Answer Anything? Though, LAY has a better ring to it than LAA now that I think about it.

  • The fediverse is empowering users like never before, but concerns persist

    Jump

  • Speaking personally, I'm trying to replace that "Frontpage of the internet" that Reddit used to be. Lemmy is great. I'm actually really liking the communities here. But there aren't enough posts because there aren't enough users yet, IMO. Maybe what I actually need is to stop using a single place for all of my news/pop culture watching, but... that's where I'm at.

  • What do people think about advertising like this on lemmy? Should it be allowed? Could it be stopped?

    Jump

  • That's fine, but if someone is making something actually interesting for a community I don't see any reason why they shouldn't be able to share it, provided that's not the only reason they're around. That gets harder to moderate, but if we're talking "perfect world", that's what I would want.

  • Did anyone dislike Final Fantasy XVI?

    Jump

  • I liked it, but I think it’s pretty flawed. The characters really worked for me and were the biggest drive for continuing on. I liked most of the story too, but it does get pretty rote near the end. Gameplay-wise, I thought it was pretty boring. The combat is mashy, standard fights are usually over in seconds and boss fights become a slog of whittling down overly large HP bars.

  • [OC] In Iceland this week and found this

    Jump

  • I was in Iceland a few months ago and stopped in there for a couple beers! Cool place.

  • These are the privacy permissions that you grant for Meta's new twitter competitor

    Jump

  • Are people really going to sign up for another Meta site? I'm sure as shit not. I finally deleted my Favebook account a couple weeks back, and I'm feelin' free!

  • Any love for a different kind of bean?

    Jump

  • As a somewhat recent Chicago tourist... I didn't care about the bean either, lol.

  • So where are we all supposed to go now?

    Jump

  • Kinda how I feel. I think it's probably bad to be subjected to what everyone is thinking all the time, particularly when paired with anonymity. But... I liked it. Not gonna lie, when I hit the end of my Lemmy feed I still load up reddit in the browser. But it's already gotten so much less useful, it's crazy! The blackouts have really fucked it up as far as looking up information via reddit. As well it should, fuck them for ruining a good (or at least decent?) thing. But it was always nice having so much of the internet in one place.

  • Thanks to any and everyone involved in putting out these server fires. It sucks, and it's often a thankless job. Keep up the good work, but don't kill yourself trying to solve all problems at once :)

  • "RIP in Peace" is one of the most annoying redundant sayings to me... not sure why it bothers me so much, lol.
