Ah, I'm not on Twitter so haven't heard that. But he had a big video about changing patreon & trying to be more productive! Well, I hope they come back strong when they are ready, very good quality stuff from the SSFF crew.
It's a pretty lame situation. I used to have a big collection, but I sold 95% at the beginning of the pandemic when I realized I just don't play them. I'm more likely to emulate, even stuff that I own. Game collecting is different from game playing and it's almost like a separate hobby with a lot of overlap. It's a bummer for people who want to have a cool thing and can't have it.
Hey /u/Mac if you know more can you expand? I understand it's asking me to pick a language, I just don't understand the warning. If i'm posting in english, it seems I should pick "english", but the warning makes it sound like i'll be missing out if I do that. What would I miss out on? What does it mean to "not see most content"? Why even have an option then? It's just super unclear what happens.
Some issues I've seen, mostly related to interactions with mastodon. I generally use Mastodon more so I've been playing with it.
I can follow a lemmy community on my mastodon account but all the posters do not show their avatar. (actually i just checked again and my avatar shows up, but others don't, so perhaps there is a long delay?)
I replied to a lemmy post on mastodon, and it showed up in lemmy, but when I'm logged in to lemmy and I try to post a reply to that it never publishes, the "post" button becomes the spinner and never makes the reply. This post for reference. This is the only one that feels like a bug.
when someone on another lemmy instance makes a post on our community, a mastodon toot goes out, but it links to their post on their community. It makes it a little odd to follow a link and it takes me to another instance than the one hosting the community. Maybe this isn't a bug, just kinda annoying, kinda fediverse in general it's tough to bounce between instances. Example. Ok making that link, it's clear that the "post" originated from the instance. I guess this is just how it works. Message Board systems are a bit more tricky than twitter-style systems.
When I make a post, it's got a warning Warning: If you deselect Undetermined, you will not see most content. and I have no idea what this is talking about.
I wish the community page would let me sort the rows by Subscribers.
Metroid: Zero Mission is my favorite these days since I recently beat it for the first time. Now I jump into it every few days and enjoy just running around and attacking and bombing and stuff.
Game Boy tetris has always been my favorite version. Check out the Rosy Retrospection romhack for the GB game with some nice quality-of-life improvements.
I think https://masto.host/ offers what you want, you can pay to host mastodon. I haven’t seen the same for Lemmy.
