  • Instance Blocking - Unlike Mastodon, Lemmy does not provide a feature for individual users to block an instance (yet).

    This is the real problem.

    • Fallout 4 has aged beautifully. You should play it again.

  • Don't get me wrong, I understand people that like Fallout 4 on its own merits. If it had been released as a new IP, I wouldn't have any animosity towards the game at all.

    It's just that, there's a reason Bethesda started releasing games under the Fallout name instead of a new IP's name, and it was to sell the game to the existing Fallout audience. And I feel like I met them halfway in embracing FO3 and NV, but FO4 was a bridge too far.

    • Truth.

  • Ram trucks are the official vehicle of domestic abuse.

    • What's your favourite colony sim on PC?

  • It probably doesn't strictly count, but..... Kenshi.

    • How to de-radicalize my mom's youtube algorithm?

    Jump

  • HEAVY use of "Don't Recommend Channel" is essential to make YouTube tolerable. Clobber all the garbage.

    • How is it possible that roughly 50% of Americans can’t read above a 6th grade level and how are 21% just flat out illiterate?

  • If you don't understand, start walking further away from the cities.

    If you still don't understand, you're not done walking.

    • Is Lemmy's code base "good"?

    Jump

  • There are no good code bases, only less bad ones.

    • Fallout 4 has aged beautifully. You should play it again.

  • Contrarian opinion here, so if you like Fallout 4, probably skip this comment.

    As someone that's played Fallout since the original game was new, Fallout 4 was like a family member dying. I got a few hours in, and quit in absolute disgust.

    • It’s morally correct

  • Anyone impatient with Lemmy bugs or downtime clearly wasn't around for Reddit's early days.

    Scaling up social websites is never smooth. Expect bumps.

    • What are YOU self-hosting?

    Jump

  • Part of my Reddit exodus plan was to get serious about my RSS setup.

    I've settled on:

    • FreshRSS as my feed manager (supported by Reeder app in iOS and MacOS)
    • FiveFilters Full Text extractor
    • rss-proxy site scraper

    I may experiment with some replacements for rss-proxy, as I've run into a couple sites it doesn't scrape well, but FreshRSS and FiveFilters have been smashing successes.
