Thank heavens for your unhealthy posting habits, we need to clone you Stamets
I love this wild west phase of the Fediverse! Feels like the good ole days of the Internet. Onwards!

That is actually an excellent point! I’m imagining a Lydia from Skyrim who would actually comment on your actual quest progression without just resorting to canned responses.
While I’m sure there will be a lot of false starts with this tech and it will take a while to iron out the kinks, I’ve been waiting for something like this for a long time. This will probably be similar to the switch from small, limited world maps in games to expansive open-worlds. It’s going to be a massive boost to immersion and will probably lead to some hilarious bugs/unexpected behaviours. Can’t wait!
Yeah, that’s a fair concern. I wish somebody would create a custom ROM you could replace the Meta shit with or something
I was in the same boat as you. I ended up getting the Quest 3, because frankly, it’s one of the best headsets on the market right now. While Meta still tries it’s best to vacuum my data, I’ve disabled as many data sharing options as I can find.
I do most of my VR gaming on PCVR through Steam Link, which is outstanding. If you have a PC and a good WiFi 6 router, you can avoid the Meta marketplace for the most part by buying PCVR games on Steam directly. That way Meta doesn’t get as much data out of you.
Antibiotics not such much I think but I would happily stand corrected.
😁
Also, Google is a (the?) major source of funding for Mozilla, so they have a lot of clout with them.
lol, can’t disagree
Honestly, this is part of a broader trend of enshittification sweeping the Internet these days. It’s not just spez, it’s any SV bro from the current crop of technology companies. I think this is a lesson worth remembering for all of us who took the freedom and magic of the Internet for granted.
Ah, that’s fair. I’m a pretty casual player and didn’t really go deep beyond the medium skill levels, so I didn’t really appreciate the cut-corners beyond that. I hardly even played much multiplayer TBH, I played and loved the single-player campaigns, which is what I tend to do on most games :D
“left” or “right”
Wait, wait, wait, wouldn’t it be Portside and Starboard?
looks at you suspiciously

I clued into this many years ago and my sense of direction has been massively upgraded ever since. I always have a mental image of the Google Maps (facing North) of a place, even when I’m visiting a new place. As a result, it is much faster for me to plot new places in my mental map. Definitely a skill worth developing!
Devs, yes, but I think very few of us program in rust :)
I saw that announcement video when it first came out and was super hyped for The Division. I didn’t end up playing it until around 2019 and I was really impressed with how close to the trailer the actual gameplay was. I know it had some controversy, but I guess I’m easy to impress lol
because I also host an instance
Ah! That rules out filtering. I don’t envy what you have to trawl through all the garbage to keep the rest of us safe!
I hope at some point more people start contributing to the core lemmy codebase as well. I don’t suppose there’s that many rust devs out there, but I think that would have much more of an impact in the long run.
I totally get what you’re saying, and those things drive me up the wall too.
I’ve ended up curating my feed heavily, blocking and filtering words, users and communities that don’t interest me. Since then, I rarely see any of the whining. If your client supports filtering by keyword, it might dramatically improve your Lemmy experience :)

OMG, LilDumpy left another comment! 📸
This is why Lemmy needs to keep tweaking it’s feed algorithm. I understand why many people rightly have a distaste of social media algorithm fuckery, but Lemmy doesn’t have some of the same bad incentives that an ad driven site like Reddit or twitter might have. A better algorithm will help Lemmy grow and surface interesting posts organically.
The recent feed change to boost smaller communities in 0.19 is a good start, and not showing too many posts in a row from the same community will be another welcome change.
