hybridhavoc, to books in What's a good book that unfolds over a short time in-story? No spoilers, thanks.
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@Varyk How short a time are we talking?

This one might be a bit of a cheat, but: The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton. Technically everything happens within a day.

@Pluto @NovaPrime
I have been using Storygraph for a couple of years now and really like it. Exported my Goodreads data and imported it into Storygraph. There was some cleanup I had to do, as Goodreads was often missing start / end dates for reading history.

What I really like about Storygraph is that it's not bloated the way that Goodreads is. The interface is clean and fairly easy to navigate and it has very few unwanted features. The stats are cool too. https://app.thestorygraph.com/stats/hybridhavoc?year=2024

hybridhavoc, to gaming in Silent Hill: Ascension fails to impress with greedy monetisation and cluttered UI
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

Checked out Silent Hill Ascension last night and yeah, was not impressed and doubt I'll look at it again.

hybridhavoc, to books in A good fantasy book? you know, wizards, dragons, princesses, that kind of stuff
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@Adderbox76 @Mothra Love the Death Gate Cycle, would also recommend it. It feels a bit like the prototype for Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere.

@Aviandelight @Mothra This is a great series. I recently did a re-read and it still holds up.

@GunnarRunnar oh then yeah, don't ask questions you don't want the answer to.

@GunnarRunnar to be fair, the OP is not the one that asked for an explanation.

hybridhavoc, to mastodon in I much prefer Lemmy over Mastodon
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@RxBrad @flameguy21
I think they were more comparing the userbase of Mastodon against its corporate-owned alternatives, not to other fediverse apps.

hybridhavoc, to mastodon in Does mastodon support groups or communities?
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@jay91 Group support appears to be in the works. In the mean-time, people on Mastodon can still follow group accounts and those group accounts will boost posts into their followers' feeds. For example, that's how I saw this post to reply to.

hybridhavoc, to mastodon in Is not that god damn hard.
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@MayonnaiseArch There are extensions which make it easier to interact with remote instances, like Roam With Mastodon. https://fo.llow.social/roam

@teft

I basically agree with this.

hybridhavoc, to literature in Do you reread books?
@hybridhavoc@darkfriend.social avatar

@BricksDont
Death Gate Cycle is a classic, dragonlance-like fantasy. It takes itself noticeably less serious than WoT. But it's pretty fun, good cast of characters.

It's the first fantasy series I ever read so it holds a special place for me, even if WoT is my favorite.

I've read most of the Wheel of Time books more than anything else.

I recently did a reread of the Death Gate Cycle. Kinda felt like the prototype to the cosmere.

And recently reread the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn trilogy from Tad Williams
