Free Software crusader. Huge computer nerd.
I think the big Mastodon push last year has made things a little bit easier for Lemmy. Basic awareness of the fediverse has broken into the mainstream of social media, rather than being a niche interest of Free Software enthusiasts.
Now that Lemmy’s gotten this initial nudge of mainstream support, I’ll be far more engaged here than I ever was on Reddit.
There’s a variety of drinks and ingredients which behave like Elder Scrolls’ alchemy system, but there’s no spell-slinging or fantasy monsters. The setting is a semi-historical portrayal of medieval Bohemia.
I thought Kingdom Come: Deliverance came pretty close to delivering that “Bethesda-style” immersive RPG experience.
This is where I’m at. The only reason I ever joined Reddit is because of the centralization of the internet. Now I’m doing my part to keep building momentum for modern, free, and independent platforms.
I have over 100 RSS feeds I’ve organized into different categories. It lets me get the latest updates from many websites all in one place. Even though some feeds now only supply a headline or partial article, it’s still a much faster and comfortable experience than relying on Twitter or Reddit to do the same thing.
