  • I’ve never been a PC gamer (mainly cause I have always been in the Apple ecosystem), but have always wanted to get into it. Have felt like I’ve been missing out a lot.

    I’ve considered a Steam Deck, because I’ve heard so many great things, including that it’s helped reignite passions for gaming in many people! But my concern is that I already am so busy and struggle to find time to sit down and game with my Switch or Xbox…I don’t know if getting a Steam Deck would even really make much of a difference in helping me play more at this point. Could be a pretty costly investment for myself if I don’t end up using it a ton.

    Anyway, that’s my two cents. If you are gaming regularly and want to be able to do more “mobile” PC gaming, it’s probably a good option!





  • I’ve been bouncing between Lemmy and Tildes to see which I prefer. I am having a hard time with deciding. I vastly prefer how Lemmy has the reply to a post box right underneath the body of the post, whereas Tildes requires you to scroll to the bottom of ALL comments to make your own reply.

    I like that Lemmy has the ability to create a ton of different communities and sub-communities. Tildes has like ~music, but nothing below that (like ~metal or ~indie). So Lemmy seems to have more of a curated community feel.

    I think I like the UI of Tildes more, as of now, but Mlem is a promising app (I just wish there were notifications for comments to my posts/replies on the app. Maybe someday!)

    Ah, thanks for linking to the Mlem community. I asked it there, but based on the GitHub link you shared, it’s probably just a matter of the dev needing to implement it and hasn’t been able to yet. I think I’ll just continue with the web app for now.

    I have a question that’s probably more specific to using Mlem to access Lemmy instances. How can I use that app to see notifications on Lemmy? I had a bunch of responses to a comment I made and had no idea because I was browsing on Mlem. No way to easily access my own posts/comments, nor see responses to those. I had to get into the web app to see that I had like 7 notifications.


  • Yes, it is. And I literally have no idea what I’m doing or what the fediverse is or how to best utilize it and I have a mastodon account but don’t use it because all of this fediverse/instance stuff stresses me out and I just want a cool community to feel like I’m a part of, not a bunch of stuff I don’t understand and I hope I can feel comfortable here with Lemmy. Oof.
