or maybe we acknowledge these issues and browse lemmy for entertainment and getting away from the stresses of daily life rather than be constantly reminded of it and roped into repetitive discussions that are preaching to the choir

err, what I meant was we need to burn down the system

Mostly aesthetically, but also since Linux Mint is a very stable distro updates are usually slow and the packages it uses are often a little outdated. If you’re the type of person to want to update to the newest thing as soon as it’s out, then it’s probably not for you.

Rumors have it that Avowed will show up in the Xbox conference. I’m really excited to finally see some gameplay for it after a looong time of radio silence.

I remember playing Destiny 1 and being so underwhelmed. I picked up Destiny 2 with my friends after it went f2p and it’s honestly gotten so much better. Crazy that it’s been 10 years now.

Pretty much my thoughts as well.

My bet is that they’re going to allow other people from the fediverse to post on it but won’t allow instagram users to see other instances. Wouldn’t want your customers getting off the official servers now.

Oh no. They don’t exactly have a clean track record.

If you hate menu diving then Tears of the Kingdom will actually make you go insane. I’m constantly swapping armor and scrolling up and down to find specific items.

I played Genshin Impact up until I explored the world and beat a couple of bosses. As soon as it asks me to grind dungeons and pulls I dipped out. Gacha games suck, it’s always a massive time (or money) sink where you get almost nothing in return. Sure, I could spend a month grinding for that legendary character. Then what? I’ll beat one DPS check before getting stuck again and having to grind for the next thing. It’s surprising how many people pay money in these games and don’t realize how pointless it is.

1. Slow, boring climbing sections that add nothing to the game and just pad out playtime. I’m looking at you, God of War (2018).

2. Lives systems. Luckily modern games never use it anymore, but every now and then I play an older game and wow, losing 30+ minutes of progress just because you died a few times SUCKS.

You should probably answer those Discord notifications lol

Adding to what the other guy said, you can think of Lemmy as a collection of servers. Right now you’re on lemmy.ml, but some people are on https://beehaw.org/ for example. Beehaw is also Lemmy, but it’s a different server with different users and communities.

Here’s what makes the Fediverse cool though. You don’t need to go there to interact with them. You can stay on lemmy.ml and access and comment on Beehaw. When you’re on the home page it defaults to “Local”, but if you click on “All” you can see posts from different servers. Same thing when you click on “Communities” at the top. It lets you browse communities on different servers by clicking “All”.

Let’s say you wanted to browse the gaming community on Beehaw. You can write “gaming” in the search field and find gaming@beehaw.org, or you can just type it into your search bar as https://lemmy.ml/c/gaming@beehaw.org

Now you can browse, comment, vote, and interact with that community. I posted this comment from https://kbin.social/ , which is NOT Lemmy, but since the Fediverse is connected we can basically interact with each other from different websites.
