Because you need network effect. Which means you need big money for marketing, content moderation and development costs. That includes algorithms, which maybe you don’t want, but most people do.
It’s not that I want a for profit company, I just don’t think Mastodon will every achieve critical mass without one.
It’s not the users, it’s the developers / investors. I’ve tried so many times to get into Mastodon, but it sucks compared to Bluesky. It lacks content and polish, so it’s no wonder everyday people choose Bluesky over it.
The real conundrum is why isn’t there a for profit company with big money behind it, investing in ActivityPub. I guess you could point to Threads? But insert your “not like that” meme of choice.
Fwiw, apparently Bluesky did initially look at activity pub, but found the protocol lacking, which is why they invented ATProto. I don’t know the details though.
They’ll regret not staying longer after catching up with current events.
Love this game! This is the same studio that did FTL. Two of my all time favourite roguelites.
Honestly, after reading some reviews I haven’t even watched it.
Fair enough! I haven’t seen any of those nor am I familiar with the source material. Maybe there’s hope yet
Amazon is 1 for 4 on doing justice to adaptations I was very excited for. I’m not holding my breath on this one.
Any of the Joe Richardson games are obvious picks.
Lots of people mentioning collaboration / multiple users, yet all your replies seem to completely ignore this aspect. I’m guessing you might live alone and are struggling to imagine some very common use cases here.
Ok… Don’t think I said they couldn’t?
That’s not true. It depends on the codecs both devices use. But regardless, I mostly listen to podcasts and my hearing is by far the limiting factor in audio quality.
After experiencing true wireless ear buds, I’m never going back. Yeah no thanks, I don’t want to be literally tethered to my phone.
Why not both?
I use syncthing for transferring files around my local network, and nextcloud for sharing files with others.
IMO these are related tools but designed with very separate use cases. Use the right tool for the job.
I’m not going to switch away from them just yet… But I am going to start using an address with my own domain. My only regret is not doing this from the beginning.
Battlebit Remastered for some 256 player servers
Nah. I’ll always play what I find interesting but I’ll go by price, not generation (as a non console gamer, what even is a generation?). Played lots of early access / new releases this year, but never spent over $25 on any single game.
Just one. Playing two at once would be tricky, I’d need like a second computer or something. And switching back and fourth between keyboards really quickly would probably lead to lots of deaths.
This is c/patientgamers, so I assume that first reason wouldn’t bother most of us here. I’m curious about the spyware assertion though. Were they caught doing something shady?
