Definitely seeing some people complain about the design changes; once my server updates I’m sure I’ll see for myself. But for the most part I’m fairly pleased with the new notification grouping. Long strings of hundreds of people liking the same post over and over meant I missed replies sometimes.

I’m very intrigued, Dan Sup is one of the most interesting people working in the fediverse these days, and I’m very curious about anything he puts forward.

Cryptobros fuck off

Fedi’s daily active users actually went up for the last two months after hitting a low of just under 1,000,000. That’s a lot of people, and on a platform that likely has the ability to carry on like a cockroach in a nuclear winter.

What exactly happened for the name to be changed from Kbin to Mbin? I missed that plot point.

server costs were not the biggest reason, it was down to salary costs

I will say unlike Reddit I find the best experience on here tends to be sorting posts by newest comments so that way discussion pushes things to the front of my page. There’s still too little content for sorting things by Top in various different communities to be worth the time. I suppose this turns it into more of an old-school forum homepage in a way.

I definitely really like the quality of discussion on Lemmy, it makes me feel like it’s actually worthwhile to comment and discuss things again. It feels like how it felt when I started using reddit back in 2012 or so.

Literally backed by Jack Dorsey and crypto bullshit. Fuck off.

And with it dying I think that’s probably the last time I’ll look at Twitter. If something isn’t publicly available on something like Mastodon it isn’t worth making an account to see.

Honestly I do wish more game developers would try to aim anywhere near where Skyrim is though. It was hugely successful but neither a sequel, spiritual successor, or major competitor has been released in the interim. It’s like a winning formula that hardly anyone else has tried to crack.

It looks fantastic, really excited to get to play it in a few months. Remains to be seen whether or not my GTX 1060 is up for one more adventure or if this’ll be the game that finally packs it in. Definitely still tempering my expectations on account of Bethesda’s recent spotty track record.

Matrix.org takes IRC a step further and is based on federation.
