Thank you! I found an arpg one but it seems dead, unfortunately.

Already deleted all my reddit accounts and uninstalled Joey (TPA). I'll be honest and say that I won't completely stop going to reddit, but it will be pretty rare and just as a spectator. I won't be participating anymore. There's just too much information there right now and there are some subs i follow that probably won't migrate here.

I agree. I'm on Arch and EOS and whenever I need a guide outside the wiki, 9.5/10 times it has instructions for apt. Makes me want to go back to Mint/Debian sometimes. Lol

We should move. Even if we did a longer blackout, the admins can just replace the mods of the bigger subs and ignore the smaller ones. Even if the blackout is effective, they will pull something like this again.
I've lost trust in them. I'm not going back except maybe for information if I really need to.

Thanks! I'm not sure I'll be using many of Vivaldi's features but it's nice to know they're a good option. I'll stick with Brave for now. Too many features scare me.

I saw that. That's honestly stupid, imo. I mean, they can still track you and force feed you ads. Sure you can have an adblocker but that's the same for mobile.
Idk why they'd do that, tbh.

Idk. I enjoyed it when it's done well. I subbed to subs like r/redditsings because of it.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Oof.. then it might not be the browser. Maybe an extension?
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
I'm really interested in running my personal instance. Can you point me to a tutorial on how to go about that?
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
This is why I'm hoping people stay even after the blackout. Lemmy has potential but a big part of it is the community. I already like it here and I've seen it grow despite being here for only a week. It's honestly amazing to watch.

I mean, reddit's CEO used to mod that sub. Reddit and redditors were still fine after it blew up. Why are there different standards? The sub may have been banned already, but I doubt spez has changed much. Reddit admins have gotten away with a lot like editing comments, refusing to ban certain subs until there was media coverage, etc. Personally, I haven't encountered any censorship due to political affiliations (yet). And if it happes, I'll change instances.
They don't control the fediverse just as much as they can't control which instance I join/create.

Have you tried a chromium browser? I haven't tried browsing lemmy on FF yet, but I never had that issue on chromium (Brave).
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Yes. Definitely. I don't mind the sub but don't surprise with that crap on r/all.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Not yet, at least. I've seen a few posts about it and I agree it's an important feature. I hope the devs are seriously considering to add it.

Honestly, Jerboa in alpha is already better than the official reddit app for me. It's no TPA reddit app, but the number of contributors (in github) has risen by a lot so I'm expecting/hoping development will pick up and it'll get better fast.
I appreciate the community the most in here. They've been very welcoming and minimal, if any, toxicity.

Like someone has said, we're in a privacy-oriented sub so it's natural (expected even) to expect the hate. Edge/MS really is bad in terms of privacy. So I get the hate.
With that said, privacy concerns aside, I have to agree that its reputation is worse than it really is. I was pleasantly surprised when I tried it, but my standard was IE so it wasn't really saying much lol. It's getting bad with unnecessary features, though.
As for being better than FF... well, of course in terms of privacy FF is still better imho. However, I rely on chromium-based browsers for work. Some internal sites I use for work simply don't play well with FF. I do have Brave, but I sometimes use Edge as well.
Is there a good chromium browser anyone can recommend? Is Brave the best privacy-wise? Vivaldi?

I tried reinstalling the update and it became laggy for me. I just force stopped it then cleared cache. It's working smooth now.

I won't be able to check this out. Would it be too much to ask someone to share if there's any updates/info about Ghost Recon games? Thank you!
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
I love those subs. I hope they migrate here. I haven't seen either yet.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
I agree. It's nice to get feedback but in the end your experience with something will probably be the major reason for your decision.
With regards to the political stuff... idk. I understand where people are coming from, I really do, but my stay here hasn't been tainted by political stuff from either side. I'll try to judge them by their actions. They've been very objective as far as I can see so I have nothing against them.
Lemmy works for me primarily because of Jerboa.

This is exactly why both Skyrim and Witcher 3 didn't appeal to me. Idk, maybe I just like guns in games or the medieval era isn't my cup of tea.

Diablo 4
Me: what? Who doesn't like Diablo? I love the grind, the builds, classes, etc. What's this dude getting at?
Because Blizzard
Me: ooohhh yeah. That's more than enough reason.

Afaik the @ appears when the user is in another instance. I'm from lemmy.one so you should see an @ if we're not both using lemmy.one as an instance.

I used power delete and it sent me a backup. Idk what to do with it yet.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Same. It's not about the app anymore. It's about reddit itself.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Mlem for IOS. Jerboa for Android. Thise are the only 2 that I know.

I also like lemmings. I saw someone somewhere suggest "cliffs" as a name for subs/communities because of the (unfair) connection to lemmings.

I just came back recently after a long hiatus as well. It's pretty overwhelming. It looks like I have ti change my builds specially melee. I'm also interested in the answers.

Holy shit. He did??? I know he still moderates r/programming but he was a mod on jailbait too? Lmfao

I didn't see those. My bad!
Privacy is non-existent on reddit anyway, just because lemmy is imperfect there doesn't mean it's any worse than reddit, and this is a public forum, there's no privacy anyway.
Completely agree. Just look at reddit's TOS. They own your data. Unfortunately, it still doesn't stop people from raising it as if reddit is a bastion of privacy and security.

I've also seen concerns about privacy and politics. It'd be great if you addressed that, too. I'd love to send you an upvote but I deleted all my accounts. 😅

I just don't understand why they (or just spez?) are/is intent on badmouthing the Apollo dev.
CheshireSnake 1 year ago • 100%
Tildes is the only other alternative that I know besides lemmy. It's more focused on discussion, as you probably know. Personally, though, I doubt it can scratch my reddit itch. I do enjoy discussions, but I also need my "nonsense stuff" fix like memes. I do like what they're trying to do. I think they're a good complementary site to lemmy if someone is ditching reddit altogether.

An app would be very helpful to get more people on kbin.
Just discovered this community and I hope it grows. I play D2R, POE, Grim Dawn, and Last Epoch. I'm still unsure if I'll get Diablo 4 because of the price. Do you guys think it will ever go on sale? What are you guys playing rn? If there's any LE players, what sites do you go to for builds besides maxroll?
