Well, dont hold your shit in for 3 days..

Nope. Im using cards view, edge to edge without rounded corners. Also I hate rounded corners. So can't be the reason.

The app is just so smooth. Responsive. Fast. I don't know what hes doing to get it that smooth, the app must preload and cache a lot maybe?

Colored icons with blobby backgrounds are overrated. White and sharp icons is where the proper style is.

Lawnchair launcher and Whicons icon pack.

Anyone think Fediverse active userbase is going to fall as much too, only slower? That most people will return to their comfy commercial social networks now that the reddit and twitter demonstrations is in the past?

I'm hoping not. I like it this active. I don't want to go back to ads and "personalised" feeds and yearly new useless features.

Agree. They don't need to reimagine, they need to de-imagine and find out what made the BF series unique and fun. They've gone so off-target that someone made the game they should have made, but with block figures, and its a success! (Im talking about Battlebit).

They could have built new and refreshing features on top of the well-functioning formula. BF in a future dystopia could have been great. Wingsuits and extreme weather of various sorts would have been cool. As long as the game still had a fun balance between vehicles and infantry and snipers. Destructable buildings and close city streets combat made all 3 sides feel like they had options.

You take a game series that has a reputation for being great (but not that many have actually played it). Then you add the D:OS fans to it. Give people four year to "pre-order". Have the DnD movie be a success a few months before (if we don't look at the Hollywood accounting). Then have the game release first in a 3 month chain of big game releases, right after a summer of game drought. And not be a buggy mess despite its complexity. By a developer studio who have wanted the DnD game license for a long time and very much want it to be their best.

Of course theres gonna be a lot of players then. But I don't think it will be easy to repeat in the future.

Sadly? You should be happy that there are already better games, and go play them!

I regret working that out.

Be proud! Without your activity others might leave too. Which would cause more people to leave. And pretty soon it will all be dead and users back in the commercial grip of whatever social network that is pushed on us.

Jup, export and import settings work fine.

A fun target for grenades.

I'm particularly proud of my post count, as I was not the kind of person that posts a lot back on that other site.
