Yeah. The ADHD/depression thing can really make things bad. It's kinda funny though. One day out of nowhere I'll snap out of it, say "Nope", and clean something... next thing you know it's a few hours later and everything's nice. It's just so hard to keep it that way because I feel like I'm just running on autopilot most of the time.
I may just be yelling at clouds here, but it seems to me like Discord is just IRC with pictures added. Or Skype with text added. Whatever analogy it is, what it isn’t is a suitable replacement for a threaded forum like Reddit / Lemmy. Or you know… proper old-school forums like phpbb and invision and what not....
Discord is just a shitty version of Teamspeak with some forum/chat features. Its main success is due to it being free, and pretty much any idiot can use it. That being said, it was never really meant to be anything like Reddit. More of a hub for gaming communities and such. It's handy for my roleplaying groups, videogame stuff, and keeping up with some close friends, but that's about it.
It all seems highly theatrical. The head of Wagner makes a huge deal about a coup and then just... stops? Like, these aren't stupid people. They knew there would be threats against their families, and they knew that Putin isn't trustworthy... especially toward someone who just went against his authority. Maybe they played him like a fiddle to paint him as a villain to further popularize the idea of absorbing Wagner...
I really miss chatrooms in general, and I thought we were due for a comeback for the year or two reddit was running them, what with the userbase they have.
I doubt it, but you never know. The only time I used it was when r/freefolk were watching the last season of GoT live, and boy that final episode was fucking hilarious. There was nothing like watching a bunch of internet strangers come together and collectively lose their shit as our brains broke at the stupidity of the finale.
So ive had a phone for a bit now but i struggle at finding game sand apps to put on it especially free ones. its kinda mid range dphone it cant run genshin impact at all but it runs stuff like battle cats really well i also struggle at finding good or useful apps to download so if you know any please suggest some or something.
Vampire Survivors is digital crack hahaha. I watched a friend play it and thought "That looks so stupid." Then I tried it, and wound up sharing it with like five other friends who said the same thing I did, and then also got addicted.
So. I just picked up Harnmaster 3e, and I knew it was a really crunchy system that I knew I'd probably never be able to get my players into, but lo and behold there's a system on Foundry. The combat works great, there's so much detail, and there's modules out already for NPCs, and merchants....
Just want to chime in here that folks need to use shreddit or something similar to delete their posts and comments before deleting their profile. Don't leave your content behind.
Reddit felt like it was going downhill for a long time. I think I just started scrolling it out of habit, only participating in a few subs for hobbies and games. This shitshow was the kick in the ass I needed to shreddit and delete my account.
Also. I think more users need to do that. Make sure you shreddit your comments and posts so reddit can't keep your content.
Thanks to this comment I just started watching Robot Carnival for the first time since I was a kid! I keep forgetting about all the old free movies on YouTube.
MegaMek is great! It's also a great resource for running games on virtual tabletop, because all the mechs and stuff are png format and can be used as tokens.
Personally, I think Questionable Content, Kevin and Kell, and Dumbing of Age are great for this. They all have a ton of history, and Kevin and Kell is actually one of the longest running webcomics ever.

Is there any chance kbin will give chatrooms a go like reddit did? Except maybe get it right and not abandon it halfway through?

What free apps and games are good to put on an android phone?

FoundryVTT might be the best thing to ever happen to crunchy games.

Does anyone use MegaMek to play? I don't play a lot of classic these days (my in-person crowd plays Alpha-Hexes) but I quite enjoy playing on MegaMek.
