With climate change looming, it seems so completely backwards to go back to using it again....
Not counting games that were unfun because of bugs, what’s the most unfun video game that you’ve played and what made it unfun?
Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.
Why is firefox losing market share? Why don't more people use Firefox?
edited the heading of the question. I think most of us here are reasoning why more people are not using firefox (because it was the initial question), but none of that explains why it’s actively losing marketshare....
How many of you are actually chatbots?
How authentic are forums like these actually? With the rise of AI chatbots, internet interaction feels more fake than ever before. Why should I post here my opinions and thoughts, share articles etc. when probably most of you are just chatbots?
what caused you to get into Linux?
What caused you to get into it, are you an evangel and are you obsessed?
which linux distro do you NOT like, and why?
Who cares about red flags in people. What are your green flags
Internet developments have gone from exciting to dreadful.
Idk if this is the right community for this conversation, but it’s been on my mind and I want to share it with someone....
It's time to take advantage of Reddit's decline
It’s no secret that Lemmy is shaping up to be a viable alternative to Reddit. The issue it faces however is that it’s still relatively niche and not many people know about it. I propose that we change this. By contacting the mods of large subreddits and asking them to make and promote relevant Lemmy communities we could...
Why do people still recommend Thinkpads for Linux when there are Linux-oriented manufacturers now?
I’ve noticed in the Linux community whenever someone asks for a recommendation on a laptop that runs Linux the answer is always “Get a Thinkpad” yet Lenovo doesn’t seem to be a big Linux contributor or ally. There’s also at least six Linux/FOSS-oriented computer manufacturers now:...
What companies have made your blacklist?
What companies will you never give another dollar to?...
What are you boycotting right now and why? Are there any Boycotts you've ended?
This post is somewhat inspired by a recent post in this same community called “Is anyone else having trouble giving up Reddit due to content?”...
How does everyone here feel about foldable phones?
Previously on Lemmy:...
Which video game did you bounce off of at first, but then tried again later for it to become one of your favorites of all time?

if you could pick a standard format for a purpose what would it be and why?...
If you could have one small thing as a superpower. What would it be and why?
I mean small like I sneeze and a 20 dollar bill appears in my hand or something like that. Not classic answers like flying or super strength.
Do you think we will ever have affordable housing again in our lifetime?
Considering how crazy expensive accommodations have become the last couple of years, concentrated in the hands of greedy corporations, landlords and how little politicians seem to care about this problem, do you think we will ever experience a real estate market crash that would bring those exorbitant prices back to Earth?
Is there a more politically conservative part of the fediverse?
I’m a conservative. I don’t mind the liberal stuff here. It’s good to learn the other side, but I don’t want a liberal echo chamber. I’d like to be more politically balanced in the fediverse. Is there any way I can do that?
What is something you dislike but still begrudgingly use?
This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting....
Where are all of the reddit refugees these days?
Just making sure I’m in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I’ve started wondering, what’s the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I’ve heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.
