I missed it live and I was curious, here’s the trailer

Nah posting in advance is good, just making people aware

starts in 12 hours

As a kid I liked GTA2, modded the game to make the taxi super fast and strong lol

I messed around a lot in GTA3 with cheats, causing chaos in the tank

Vice City I actually played for real and beat it, my favorite in the series, but I stopped after that. I probably would’ve enjoyed San Andreas because it’s similar. GTA4 and 5 just seemed like a different tone and style that I was never very interested in. Also they took too long to bring to PC lol.

It’s definitely a concern. People ask these questions about Lemmy, but no one asks how the horizontal scaling of Twitter functions and then complains that your explanation is too technical.

For like 99% of Reddit accounts, that’s all they do anyways lol

Yeah, I created this post so we could figure out how to handle these questions/concerns, because there’s a lot here

I think the confusion arises when people try to optimize maximum usage of “Lemmy” instead of just hearing someone say “hey join midwest.social it’s fun, I’ll see you there”, and then they say “ok” and signup and use it as-is, like the old forum days. Don’t even need to use the word “Lemmy”.

They probably weren’t optimally using Reddit to its fullest potential, yet they won’t even dip their toe into Lemmy until they have a perfectly optimal gameplan of maximizing their usage of Lemmy better than anyone ever has before. Just jump in! You don’t have to be perfect, just click around and upvote and leave comments.

pretty sure on Android an app can read your IMEI if they ask for the Phone Calls permission and you approve it

I don’t know if the Reddit app does this, I never used their official app

like I said, hashtags are fun, but the fact that even if you follow the hashtag it only shows posts that were already federated into your instance confuses people

communities/groups will federate the posts for you if you follow, but following a hashtag does not give any federation

Even if you could follow hashtags on Lemmy, you would also need to be able to follow users for anything to show up (so that’s 2 big new features required). And since it requires following users, that would also mean a culture shift would be required, you’d need to convince your instance-mates to use their Lemmy accounts to follow people, but people are mostly here to follow communities not people.

I’m not against the features being added, I just don’t think they’re going to be as impactful to the Lemmy platform as expected.

yea I mean it’s fun to use and works well if you’re on a large instance like mastodon.social, I use it even on a medium size instance

but communities/groups work better on the fediverse, and maybe something in between the 2 could be created, some kind of federated version of hashtags

hashtags don’t work well on the Fediverse, a hashtag doesn’t have an owning instance which means there’s no way to push/pull the content by hashtag

I think Deus Ex (2000). The gameplay is so open and full of possibilities, and the story is crazy but it works so well. It’s so replayable.
