Battlebit is just $15 on Steam and has a great amount of content, quality servers, and old school Battlefield-style gameplay. Super low spec graphics. Can really recommend it to folks looking for the above

Cheers to the best reddit app. I'll be eager to try out the lemmy client when it arrives!

Ugh, I've found it difficult to get it up and running. Need to throw more time at it but I thought the docker containers would "just run".

I loved the fight so much. The way Mantis read the data for other games off your memory card was just so cool; such a clever way to mess with the player.

Here's the video to see all the interactions for yourself! https://youtu.be/cX-fX7Y87dk?t=6

It's made the platform significantly less friendly to advertisers, which is the other place that really hurts the company

It'll probably be a while before something like that would be implemented, especially since most 2FA providers cost additional money to run. Right now there isn't much incentive to steal people's accounts anyway.

I think there's some usability to be ironed out, but as the fediverse userbase grows, things will only get better and better

Thank you so much for your support! 😍

I just saw an email from Buy Me a Coffee. Not just one. I went in, and I'm truly shocked. Thank you all for the support; I would like to thank each and every one of you individually someday. Honestly, I don't know what to say. The account balance is $350, which will definitely allow me to develop kbin faster or at least not...

Cheers! Glad to hear you're well supported

Ideally I think there would be a separation between your identity on an instance and the data on other servers you use. Or, at the least, some kind of "landing page" where you can then click and be brought to the server you want to use.

I keep musing over making something like this; perhaps I should...

I'm impressed and pleased with the mods' willingness to strike like this. Hope it may lead to change.

Is there a way to create Super Communities?

I've noticed in the explosion that we are getting duplicate communities in multiple instances. This is ultimately gonna hinder community growth as eventually communities like 'cats' will exist in hundreds of places all with their own micro groups, and some users will end up subscribing to duplicates in their list....

I think something like this would probably be done user side, maybe with some option to share it, much like the "multireddit" feature of reddit. Each individual community is still moderated and run by their mods and local instance, but the user can choose to aggregate multiple mags/communities together.

On one hand, he did say "ask me anything". Reading the thread, I realize he didn't actually say he'd answer anything.

Also, I love how the dishonest fuck that spez is wrote "Some third party apps decided the cost per user a month was too much" after app developers like Apollo's and Sync's both independently posted breakdowns of why the pricing structure was untenable. And it's after he was caught lying about reddit's conversations with the Apollo dev.

Glad this debacle has me invested in the fediverse future, at least.

I like this significantly better than Mastodon

My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...

Mastodon allows you to verify other ActivityPub accounts with a special link-back HTML element. I wish that there was either a universal method or that more applications had something like it. Something that indicates "this is me, and you can see my other activity over here and here and here".

Maybe we need a dedicated ActivityPub service for just that lol. Maybe I should be the one to make it...

With a big player like Meta in the game, I wouldn't be surprised if they do something similar to other large companies that adopt standards like these - they attempt to gain as much influence as possible with how the standards are written, like Google has done with web standards.
