Having never heard of that show, I clicked that link fully expecting a horrible TV adaptation of the SNES era fighting game, and was wholly disappointed.

Godot is fantastic, supports linux natively, and it’s FOSS; highly recommend it.

There’s also the Machete Order. The TL;DR is to watch the movies in the order of: IV, V, II, III, VI. The reasons why are explained at that link and can’t be discussed without spoilers.

Not to mention, this is a gross misrepresentation of what’s actually going on.

To all you folks who’re downvoting this comment: Are you basing your opinion on OP’s biased, slanted account of this policy, or did you read the actual post from the Feddit admins? You don’t have to answer me, but if it’s the former, maybe self-reflect that you’re here complaining about censorship and propaganda, yet you’re doing so in response to a very propaganda-laden post that misrepresents the actual situation.

The admins are also German, though, and seem to suggest that they feel at risk by this, as well. Maybe it’s just time for another European instance to start up, with admins not in Germany, who feel comfortable hosting this discourse?

That’s a fair concern; maybe the recourse is just to move the community to a different instance? If the community as a whole is largely in agreement, this shouldn’t be a difficult task. Even less of one if the mods agree.

This kind of seems… reasonable? Like, they have and convey a compelling legal reason for needing to do this. There’s plenty of other Lemmy instances where these opinions and statements can be freely expressed. Further, they’re explicitly allowing discourse that conveys similar sentiment but doesn’t go against German law.

I guess my question is, what’s the objection here?

If you mean “enough copper to make a pickaxe and hammer”, panning is by far the most reliable method. If you mean “Enough copper to make everything I want to make with it”, are you using a prospecting pick? (If not, do so.)

Vintage Story is fantastic. It was described to me initially as ‘Minecraft for adults’ and it really lives up to that description. Also has a very vibrant modding community with a ton of well-maintained mods and installation is a single click on the official website. Highly recommend.

Wow. This took me a lot of reads to parse. Possibly because I’m a bit dense. Great find.

I don’t have the links you’re looking for, so I can’t be any help there, but I do want to give you a hearty welcome to Lemmy anyway!

It does, though, because not every instance federates with every other instance. If someone is coming from Reddit, and they interact with a set of specific subs there, and they want to interact with the analogue communities here, they don’t want to join an instance like, for example Beehaw, that has very strict federation policies, or (probably) .ml or lemmygrad, where they’ll be exposed to stigma they weren’t aware of going in and which might not apply to them.

A list of servers with very open federation could solve this problem in theory, assuming new users knew to reference it, but that might not be what they want, either.

The invite code idea is actually solid, I think, assuming they’re handed out to people who have things in common with the target userbase of the instance, and not arbitrarily.

There’s also some instances that hold united views on specific topics, for example blahaj with trans rights, and someone arbitrarily choosing that instance that doesn’t hold those same views might feel that they don’t fit in.

Obviously anyone can just choose a new instance and move, but for a new user coming in, that’s a ‘quit moment’ in many cases. Giving an invite code to someone that leads them to an instance that at least broadly fits what they’re interested in could help solve for this.

Edit: I think having more instances that have specific themes and topics, like slrpnk or programming.dev (or pawb, for that matter) would help, too. Someone looking in from the outside might not understand federation, but if they see an instance geared towards a topic they’re interested in, they might be inclined to join it even if they incorrectly think that’s all they’ll be able to interact with.

Something like many Reddit subs do with the snoo, where they took a common, recognizable icon and customized it for their instance would have worked well if there was a similar icon for instances to latch onto, but we’re past that point now.

https://12ft.io/ is faster than archive.is and doesn’t actually archive the page. In cases where you just want to read it and don’t want to waste server space on it, it’s maybe a better option.

I make coffee by drinking hot water, then chewing whole coffee beans and swallowing them. I then wash it down with milk.

Is it possibly your distro? Maybe share what you’re using, and see if others are having different luck with it?

Are you using Steam, or games from another service? I’ve only found 1 or 2 things that didn’t work immediately on Steam, but I have an absolute hell of a time getting anything off Steam to run, it’s like pulling teeth. Especially older Windows games; they’re just a non-starter most of the time.

I really hate that that writer capitalizes every instance of ‘Me’, ‘My’, ‘Mine’, etc… it changes my internal inflection when reading, and really fucks up the flow of the text.

This is kind of up to the individual community, not the instance as a whole. An instance theoretically could make a general ‘No memes on any community on this instance’ rule but it would be awful to enforce, and it’d be easier to leave it up to communities.

That said, I think Lemmy is a long way off from having the userbase or popularity to create that problem, and the absence of karma or any analogue really narrows the impact. Personally, I’ve seen significantly less low-effort content here than on Reddit, with the exception of a few specific communities that exist for that purpose specifically.
