REAL AS FUCK!!! BOCCHERS SWEEP!!!

Seriously tho, this is awesome. I love me some Bocchi.

I found it preferable when I started exclusively using the keyboard and keybinds. Tho I ended up using a TWM so I’m definitely not the target audience lol.

YouTube with recommendations based on what you watch and subscriptions

I’ve been using Invidious and NewPipe to watch YouTube for a long time. I don’t use an account with either of these. However, I’m wanting to get recommendations based on what I watch and my subscriptions. LibreTube looked promising but it no longer works. When I try to watch videos it won’t play. YouTube Vanced is dead....

Huh? But I use Libretube everyday.

Is there a "guide to the Pokémon Anime"?

Specifically - A list of episodes that actually matter, because there are over one thousand episodes in the Pokémon Anime, and most of those are a fat load of nothing. – I’ve been wanting to watch the Anime (like, beyond the first two seasons I’m nostalgic for), but I don’t wanna slog through 740 episodes of nothing for...

It’s extremely ironic that the anime started to pick up when the games started to fall off.

Idk about them, but it’s a centralized, locked-down service that absorbs and holds information and data hostage like tomorrow.

As someone who’s trying to completely avoid Discord, it’s quite frustrating how many communities and projects will put important information in their Discords, and nowhere else. You have to have an account to see it, and it also isn’t searchable in a search engine. It is actually quite terrible for pretty much everyone.

Element/Matrix lets you peek into public chats and servers/spaces without an account, so it can definitely be done. They won’t do it though, because they gotta make you feel dat FOMO lol.

I can acknowledge all that and still say fuck discord. I never mentioned herding everyone over, I just explained why I think it’s a parasite and why I have a strong disliking towards it.

As an American who has to hear about shootings pretty consistently, I’d like to say the fear can be pretty justified. I don’t really know what it’s like to live in a world without guns and their presence, so it’s hard to imagine life without the necessity of them to protect yourself. It’s just one of those things that’s hard to understand unless you’ve lived in it I guess.

What are the benefits to this instead of a TWM? Just curious since I’ve been seeing a few people singing it’s praises, and wanted to know why I’d use it over a traditional TWM.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Ahhhh, okay. Definitely not what I’m after but I’m glad the middle ground exists for most people who aren’t insane lmao.

I will argue on the better connected parts bit though. Most apps designed for TWMs are intentionally very generic, minimal, and simple, making them blend together very nicely. Especially if you theme them, which is very easy to do in most cases.

Honestly all I want is a Steam Deck Mini. Fuck bigger and more powerful, I want a small indie/AA game machine that’s easier to carry around and use as a handheld outside of the house. The Steam Deck has been primarily a bed machine for me.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Awesome! Now I go back to waiting for the 24TB Ironwolf drives to drop.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Kobo devices are the way to go. Easy sideloading, multiple FOSS operating system alternatives, and generally they’ve got some nice n’ cheap options.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, this and Koreader are the ones I was referring to. Sorry for not listing anything.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

AntennaPod and Podverse are both really good.

I genuinely mean no offense, but what did you rice? I don’t use MacOS much so I find it hard to actually see what is changed from standard MacOS.

Whoa, that’s sexy. What dashboard is that?

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

The rebrand is great! I’m loving the icon, and am looking forward to seeing how this project progresses. I just have a few questions.

  1. Even beyond a Linux client, how about a Linux server package? I understand the client situation. Microsoft dominates in the desktop space, but it’s the complete opposite in the server space. Windows server is a super niche option. This severely limits the amount of people who can host this service imo.
  2. I get there’s a piracy disclaimer, but I do think it would just be better to change the “alternatively sourced” phrase all together. I feel that phrasing makes Gamevault a lot easier to attack for those who may not be fond of such a service existing. Maybe just say DRM-Free? It seems like the easiest way to dodge that sort of thing. Perhaps there’s a better way to phrase it that I’m not thinking of.

Overall, an awesome project! I know a lot of friends who can’t afford to buy a lot of games, and I’ve always wanted to share my library with them. It also made me think a lot more about how centralized PC gaming is nowadays. Nearly every seller distributes through Steam or Epic, and has some form of DRM. If Steam/Epic wanted to, your entire library or any game they chose could be deleted from the marketplace. Even if you have it downloaded locally, sadly a ton of games rely on the connection to Steam servers to function. Even if the games themselves are completely offline, or single player. Gog, Itch, and any other similar platforms are a rarity nowadays, and lot of the bigger publishers and developers don’t use them.

Apologies for the text wall, it was not originally supposed to be this long. I hope you got something out of my rambling. I look forward to when I can run this when Linux is (hopefully) better supported and the project matures to a point where I can transfer over. Maybe I’ll repurchase some games on Gog in that time. I do wonder how this’ll affect my experience with the Steam Deck…

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Fuck, really? Now I feel like an idiot. Thanks for making me aware. Still praying for a Linux client, NixOS doesn’t play too well with things outside the Nix ecosystem. Maybe I can contribute to the Linux efforts when I gain the proper skills.

Fair enough, hopefully it doesn’t lead to any fuss with the big corpos if this project grows to a decent size. Gaming is pretty untouched in the self-hosted world, who knows what’ll happen. It’s pretty exciting tbh.

Off topic, is there any chance you guys can create a Matrix space and bridge it with the Discord? I’d love to chat, but I really am trying to move away from Discord.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Awesome! Just to explain a bit, Matrix is a FOSS and decentralized chat protocol that’s more feature rich than XMPP, but also younger and less mature. It’s more popular than XMPP at the moment, and has a lot of nice and modern clients to pick from. I hope it can serve your team well if you guys decide to pick it up.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

That’s actually really good! I like that one a lot more.

Netbird vs. Tailscale

As I’m prepping my self-hosted setup I wanted to know the community’s thoughts on Netbird, the FOSS and completely self hosted alternative to Tailscale. I often hear Tailscale used as a super easy plug and play way to share your home server contents with other people, so how does Netbird fair in comparison? Is it as easy? Is...

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

This seems like a good middleground, I might use it if my stubborn attempt to use Netbird doesn’t work. Thanks!

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I’d actually prefer full CLI/TUI for management, but it’s interesting to see how many different alternatives there are. I only knew about Tailscale going into this.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I just check my Nix.config, but most distros don’t have that privilege.

Idk how it works for most other distros, but I know on Arch you can check all packages manually installed by pacman and your AUR helper.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

It was mainly the search, it was a ghost town for Masto content and accounts. Maye that’s still a WIP, but finding accounts I want to doesn’t seem easy.

@euphoria@kbin.social avatar

Hi from Kbin. I made a magazine recently that does the same thing this community does, but for Kbin. Perhaps we could 'partner' and put each others links in our bios? @MagHub

edit: all i wanted to do was give a place to kbin users to promote their KBIN magazines. this is a community for promoting lemmy communities which we from kbin obviously cannot create from here. thanks :D

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I really do feel that stuff like this pointlessly fragments the Fediverse. The magic is that Kbin and Lemmy can interact with no strings attached, doesn’t it make more sense to just have a shared pool of communities irregardless of where they were created? Lemmy and Kbin posts just feed into eachother, I’ve used both platforms. I think it’s pretty beautiful, as someone who’s mostly grown up with the centralized, proprietary web.

I also wish that there was a platform agnostic term for communities, it’d make things a lot easier if they shared a terminology instead of making things more confusing. Though maybe I’m the only one who cares about that.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah I’m mainly interested in the tech and pushing it as an option. Android ROMs are waaaaay better for privacy/security. It’s hard to recommend a Linux phone unless you’re a techie, Linux enthusiast, or a dev.

I don’t have one yet but I’d like to try one when I can casually spend a few hundred bucks on one.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Holy cow, that’s sweet! I’ll definitely give it a try then.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I honestly forgot about this, there’s also that Blue Sky thing I heard people talk about. I’m very excited to give this a go now.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Ah, my bad. I never really looked into it but I kept hearing similar stories, especially when the Meta leak happened.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

This is really an option on Calckey??? I did not expect this use case to be accounted for, let alone supported.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

I stated why in the post.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

This seems cool, but damn I wish there was something like this for Steam games or something. That’s the biggest thing I miss from Sony’s ecosystem, and Steam’s “Family Share” is pretty bad in comparison.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Regardless of the how, I think it’s really cool that the top instance isn’t run by the devs. Really shows off the power and appeal of decentralized services.

A terminal client for browsing and using Reddit. You could post, reply, search, etc. etc.

Mastodon has some, toot and Tut to name a few. Not sure if an all encompassing client would be possible, but damn it sure does sound appealing. Maybe some mad lad will try it later down the line.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

This is why we use Piped and Newpipe/Libretube.

One of the worst habits I have is singing and humming while talking to people.

Why the heck does my body feel like it's tripping sometimes when I sleep?

So I’m about to snooze when all of a sudden before I drift off it feels like I missed a stair in my bed and I start to fall until I’m forcefully woken up by the shock. Like, WTH?! It’s not like a dream where you fall off a skyscraper, it’s more like before you start to dream when it happens.

shinnoodles,
@shinnoodles@lemmy.world avatar

Discovering that this is a common occurence is comforting. I thought I was crazy or something.
