This is actually amazing. I’ve done a bit of editing as I play Pokémon Go which uses OSM for the background map. I got fed up of just looking at roads so I mapped in all the buildings, shops, parks etc near me.

This gamifies walking and exploring which I love!

I’ve always wondered, is this a drawing of the YouTuber NorthernLion?

I wonder if they would still be able to sell location data in aggregate?

I play Pokémon Go (yes that’s still a thing) and Niantic recently made a deal that they don’t sell individual location data which people have taken as they sell bulk location data instead (scrubbing data such as your name etc).

I only check Reddit now for a game sub which, while on Lemmy, doesn’t have critical mass yet (and I’m not sure it will).

Relay too

PCIsBetterThanConsolesInLiterallyEveryWay just doesn’t roll off the tongue as well.

edit: my most upvoted comment is about beans.

Gotcha!

Lemmy lore in the making.

Doesn’t this make NewPipe better in that instance? If it’s client side you aren’t going to be rate limited.

There is also a fork of NewPipe that integrates SponsorBlock (I don’t know if Piped has that).

What happens if you use SmartTubeNext on a TV? I’m assuming the interface wouldn’t support the 3 strike YouTube popup so I guess you’d just get blocked without knowing why?

I’m guessing ReVanced will support the popup so you’d know.

Relay is still working for me, including NSFW content:

It’s just a gotcha to them. If I read an article from The Verge and Reddit hasn’t commented on it, I’m not even going to remember that quote, let alone make that connection that the article must be unsubstantiated hearsay.

It must make them feel better saying it though.

They kind of work, you can see below that the content is not from those communities. I have to change the sort method to get the content, but the sort method is broken for me as I’m on lemmy.one which is not on v18:

Interesting, but 4/8 of the games you list are remakes/rereleases.

The post is over a month old, more like good timing to bring this to people’s attention now haha.

Bought a 144hz 1440p monitor a couple years ago so I really need to upgrade my RX580, but I got fed up with GPU prices so just got a PS5 to tide me over.

Regarding your last paragraph, I agree. I’m subscribed to gaming in lemmy.ml and beehaw so see the same content twice regularly. Duplicate communities raise other concerns for me though:

Which one is the defacto community to join? Using the Gaming community as an example, maybe one leans more to images and the other has more meaty discussion threads just by way of who has joined those communities - nothing to do with the rules. But if you subscribe to both, the majority of the content may be duplicate posts instead? It’s not clear from the community title alone.

Is the potential squandered as communities are potentially splintered? Maybe people just stick to one community without joining the other. It’ll take time for a certain community to establish itself as the main community with the highest quality posts, but due to the volume of users on the main instances maybe there won’t be a main community? Or maybe people won’t even be aware of multiple communities for the same topic as the names are different, e.g. football Vs soccer.
