Pre-registered for Boost since it was my go-to Reddit app. It released and auto-downloaded today, and I don't even feel like opening it after coming to like Connect so much.

  • These things are the standard for apps nowadays; it's Connect and other Lemmy apps that are the outliers. I don't blame that dev for wanting some return on their work, but I am happy that we have so much choice in Lemmy apps that I can choose to use something else instead.

    • When the DM is really trying to save your character

    Jump

  • That's why it's important to assess the tone the DM is using when they say that.

    Do they sound defeated? You're probably about to derail away from something planned to something that will have to be fully improvised on the spot, reconsider for sanity's sake

    Do they sound excited? You're probably about to trigger a really cool trap, full steam ahead

  • Because it's not Reddit, and is active enough.

    In terms of content Lemmy is definitely inferior to Reddit. So it is, it's not very old and not very large compared to Reddit. But because of Reddit's decisions, I'm here instead of there.

    Jump

  • I only really wishlist games that haven't come out yet that I'm interested in, to remind me to buy it when it comes out. Only about ten items on mine.

    Jump

  • Not sure yet! I've not bought a lot of games recently, but I do enjoy large swathes of the strategy genre. Stellaris, Civ 5 and 6, Terra Invicta, Frostpunk, etc.

  • Differences in instance-level topical focus and moderation philosophy, for one. Also physical location and "vibe".

    There are a certain set of bigoted and/or extremist instances that I would judge an instance for not defederating from. There's a reason I've stuck with .world even through some turbulence. Some heinous shit shouldn't be tolerated by anyone.

    • Pixelfed is adding Groups, similar to communities, which will federate with Lemmy, Kbin, and Mastodon

    Jump

  • I hope Lemmy eventually picks up more features like polls. I miss natively embedding polls.

    • I don't think the reddit, twitter, etc will "die" the way most people expect them to.

    Jump

  • The difference is in obscurity and vanity. Everyone online knows who Musk is, people outside Reddit (and even those on Reddit, some of them) don't know who Spez is. The scale is different, and so are the severity and publicness of the negative changes. Like hell, a total site rebrand is a pretty noticeable thing.

    EDIT: Case in point, everyone refers to him as Spez instead of his name, Steve Huffman.
