If Reddit had a soul/conscience, I think it was us, and we're all on Lemmy now...
  • Yeah I would agree that for casual conversation Discord overtook for me. I was lurking r/warframe and after losing pc capable running game started gacha and discussed on r/Arknights. So with api fiasco I left Reddit and tried Mastodon... have account and check it out but there is no activity on #arknights , joined discord server for R/Arknights that was made during blackout and still going strong. Like I got better of R/Arknights and not on Reddit. People some use Reddit, some silently, some like me abandoned and even people who never used Reddit joined. Moderating m/Arknights on Kbin but with Kbin dev having unlucky strike and generally hopping he have health to both have normalcy and work on Kbin. So without proper mod tools and some broken features (like webp not displaying, where microblogs from Misskey converts to webp to consolidate space) and some other little wants that I would propose if I knew there would be implemented.

    Using Misskey.io before it closed registration to Japanese only (happens when everyone was leaving twitter for Musk dumb thing he implemented). With Misskey at least found artists and players for Arknights but as it is Japanese instance, they only thing I can do is share art so #arknights tag weren't dead on Mastodon.social .

    So TL DR left Reddit, joined sub Reddit discord server which is where I spend most of my leisure time, using Mastodon for news, Kbin for moderation (but no one visits, at least no spam as I clean up) and news , Misskey for fan art.

  • Let's gloat a little, What makes Lemmy/Mastodon/KBin/BlueSky and the Fediverse better than Facebook/Reddit/Twitter?
  • Misskey is microblog compared to Lemmy or Kbin , but still it's fun to use albeit more demanding on resources. While Kbin/Lemmy see karma as numbers, Mastodon (main branch) as likes, Misskey have emoji's so you can convey your feelings without making short replies.
    Sure some people will say that's dumb or useless, but hey when you see some art and having only ❤️ instead of 🆒 or :cool__i: or :otoge_rank_aaa: and so on.
    There is many other neat features but the main point of this comment is.
    You can join in on conversation without restricting yourself to limitations imposed by soft/server one use.
    Add on top that you can self host which is not for everyone but people having their whole identity tied to their own space instead of Twitter/Youtube/Twitch etc.

    Which would be true if Misskey wouldn't send error and deny me sending message, so we still far off in that point.

    "Arknights: Rise From Ember" (Season 3) Announced with Teaser Visual, PV
  • As someone who have years in arknights gacha can say it is good. The biggest joke is that Hypergryph company behind Arknights creation is a music company and then Gacha and etc. So music direction is always great in all PV for events or character songs. I would say they first season bit lore heavy and is worst in terms of story, mostly rough start of gacha story that was revised. Second season and Third is where the peak of AK storytelling... There is a lot to cover storywise so 3rd season won't end Chapter one (out of 2 which ending soon on CN, global is behind as typical gacha but by 6 months only).
    So moving away my bias as gamer and purely on anime. I would say it's decent and good if you can close your eyes on some aspects. The minus are typical anime tropes of child protagonist, amnesiac main character, child is face of the organization. Pluses would be that it is really grounded world building with big premise on suffering of incurable disease and treatment of poor/ill/different race and even specific racism against one race.
    So give it a thought, if you enjoyed a bit first season then second will be even better.

  • KES 4.1.0: Improving the signal to noise ratio by blocking unsolicited ads
  • Thanks for the hard work!
    Even though I don't post much so mostly ignore all those messages, still it is a big problem. Until we get it sorted out having tools like these helps stop "bleeding" by people who want to use kbin.
    Had few pop up on my magazine even though there is barely a traction but saw few times bloat when posted on other magazines which is really discouraging.

    Disgaea fans: How does 4 compare to 1 and 2, doods?
  • Played 1,2,4 and 5 .
    Mechanics I would say I liked 4 compared to 1,2 while 5 has formula a bit reinvented so it's different at all in good and bad ways.
    Story wise 1,2 and 4 are great, 5 story is meh.
    So if you want to try after 4 the 5th... Just tune out of the story, it's not even close to others. Personal stories in 5 are kinda good but overall story is trash.
    So yeah Valvatorez main plot is great so definitely get that one if you itching for Disgaea.

    Nvidia GeForce Now is putting video ads before play sessions on their free tier
  • I wanted to try free tier, but amount of time spending to wait in line to play a game was too much.add in that it was laggy and you can't just leave and come back. Now they will get free ad space for people who didn't even try service yet due... Amount of wait time in line. But speaking as someone who is redirected to Russian servers by default (too small country to have local server of course). Wonder how free tier experience for others in "good" countries.

    Bluesky got 1 million new users
  • I saw many artists going to Misskey.io because it's main instance even English speaking ones until they gone back to twitter, stayed on Misskey or half measures. Then because of EN influx in mainly Japanese server , Misskey.io closed doors to non-Japanese add in fact that Misskey or rather any federated service can't oblige to European Union protection standard which means they can't operate in EU officially.
    So I see lots of messages on Misskey about artists making blue sky accounts as well... All depends where they get more views I guess or have people supporting them around.

  • Lemmy interoperability with Mastodon
  • Agree I really was intrigued after being comfortable with reddit, but bailing because all my Reddit interactions was from phone, so cut story short tried Mastodon.social>Kbin.social>Misskey.io
    Also funkwhale and hubzilla out of curiosity.
    So I really interested in tech but there is a lot of wait between some of them agree on some points.

    My aim for now to make Kbin community for a game that can directly refer to works of artists directly and for users of Microblogs to see topics and join in on discussions.

    From personal experience Mastodon seems fine with threadiverse while Misskey can see posts if forced (and only kbin threads, link ones won't work at least) but commenting gives error. Also Misskey quotes shows as comments for a post/message etc, but not federate to kbin so as loop around don't work as well.

    So having followed many artists on Misskey and having some people following me there kinda wish I could interact with magazine(community) directly, but too early for that I guess.

    Also Misskey making webp conversion for images is good for storage(you get personal 2 gb and more with time or donations) but Kbin not federate them properly... So that also an headache...

    Waiting when Kbin release api so I can remind about this problem again.

    Arknights : Community to everything related to Gacha tower defence game.

    Want to promote our community before global anniversary starts on 16 January or later. More active part is reddit arknights discord r/arknights discord invitation so if you want to chat with people who are still on reddit and people who aren't there anymore, this is where you meet them. Lots of activity there so if you have any game related questions someone will answer you.

    Less active part is our Kbin magazine (community) at https://kbin.social/m/arknights or https://lemmy.ca/c/arknights@kbin.social /arknights@kbin.social . Many people tried out but not many stuck with it and as there is no active communities dedicated to arknights, will try to keep our magazine up.

    If you know any lemmy community dedicated to arknights then I would really appreciate if you point me to some.

    How much do you use Kbin for microblogging?
  • I don't use Kbin for microbloging. Had started at Mastodon.social>Kbin>Misskey.io .
    Switched from posting from Mastodon to Misskey as more people I would enjoy content or would watch my content (well being En speaking on JP server has it -) but I play Arknights and do silly challenge clear that I enjoy, so posting it there with # that will pickup our kbin magazine. Most of art is on Misskey.io as it is on the rumours for many was, but they limited it to Japanese with ever new server being English one.
    So use Kbin Microblog to see anything interesting show up on magazine or just in general. Mastodon for "war" news and reports while Misskey for fan art.

  • [MEGATHREAD] Pinch-Out Experimental Operation
  • @Miameow

    Honestly First 2 test plates I was okay not bad, You have wiggle room.
    Third one... Nope, those risks absurd and combining them is not fun at all.
    Which is why I don't even want to show clear of 3rd test plate with niche I play, even if I uploaded on youtube
    Main stage being abysmal and getting a bit better after second test plate also.. not fun.Glad that stall is not mandatory for medal.

  • [MEGATHREAD] Pinch-Out Experimental Operation

    The long awaited future replacement of Contingency Contract , the beta iteration of CC 2.0. I wanted to try it a bit myself before starting this megathread, from what it seems the rumours I heard on reddit and jokes about leaving your PC (and god forbid your phones) for hours is pretty much on point. With Meta squad 300 points is easy to get, 540 if you are really committed else wait till "Daily" stages unlock in 2 ,5 and 8 days. Then you can try your hand at medal aka 600 points.

    Special mention Challenge for Dorothy "Inescapable Dream" have a text that requires 50 overall in Dispatch/Planning. Easiest to pick are all Dorothy challenges and Deployment/Max squad limit. Else look at "Test details" if you have enough points for "Sanctuary Judgement"

    If there is any guides or explanations how to manage Pinch-Out easily, I would add to body of this Megathread or pin if you made your own thread with a guide.

    Good luck with this one, it is bad as people joked about.

    I've been thinking a bit about [this post](https://nerdica.net/objects/a85d7459-1065-6c96-1e39-358946147055) regarding [#Mastodon](https://kbin.social/tag/Mastodon)'s responsibility to be compatible w
  • Difference between Kbin and Lemmy is how they show their threads. Lemmy does community self boosting that's why it shows in Mastodon Groups, Kbin does not.
    Mastodon working on groups but last I heard about it is in August I think... so nothing yet.
    You can manually add lemmy and Kbin threads by posting link into Mastodon search, but again not useful and only when you want to respond not lurking.
    I would also want more interactivity with threads as I use my Misskey.io account much more for posting but have to do jump hoops for threads I want to share show up. You can't make threads to Kbin from Mastodon/Misskey as they are sorted to microblogs, while addressing @ to lemmy community will work to make a thread.
    All in all we are yet to have good communication between threads and microblogs, my solution for that is set up Mastodon bot that checks RSS feed of my community/magazine and post whenever new thread is made. Afterwards just copy link from bot in mastodon search and you can view/reply.
