  • I wish the fediverse is able to contain all the ideas, all the political positions and that disconnecting/blocking an instance is only used for behaviors like spamming. Not giving every political stance the opportunity to be a part of the same world fuels extremists.

    Beehaw and other instances can kick all the users with far-right beliefs. That’s fair. But Lemmy users shouldn’t be blocked to listen to or even interact with them, in their own instances, if they wanted. Don’t help creating political ghettos.




  • I just saw the video and was impressed by the amount of detail Apple puts in their “apple way of doing what already exists” but at the same time really discouraged to even try this stuff. Can’t explain much better than saying: everything seems dystopian. Like Marques says: who would be at their child birthday party with a headset on their head? I just think it’s another step in the long stair of individualism.



  • That makes everything clearer. I see now that instances can be created with completely different rules (i had already noticed the “no downvotes” option) Thank you for that.

    It’s great to have all this different flavours in the save universe.

    My next inquiry will be about clicking that colored symbol (maybe a fediverse icon?!) and being taken to a mastodon page. That really confused me. Especially because I’m also on mastodon, with the same username but the two accounts (lemmy/beehaw and mastodon) are not connected… It’s really confusing for me.













  • Thank you very much. I think isometric RPGs will be the sort of thing I’ll definitely try.

    Sorry for not being to focused but yeah, after this brainstorm with your help I think I’m searching for something that mimics board games (which I love and play) more than anything else. Maybe it’s this year that I finally get into D&D playing, since I have the books for 5ed and enjoyed reading them very much but never played.


  • I’ve played Stardew Valley and loved it until the part where it’s only about getting that perfection score. Dwarf Fortress seems very complex. Can you play it casually? I saw that it involves a lot of reading which doesn’t threatens me but if by playing it casually I would be missing most of the stuff maybe it’s too demanding. Legend of Grimrock look very old-school, remembers me of Elvira!! Does it have any sort of a community?


  • Thanks for your time in answering me.

    Yeah, that’s exactly what I meant, just didn’t know that they were called “shooters” but it makes sense! I’ve played FF VII on PSx and definitely is the kind of game I like (maybe because it’s turn based, so no stress is involved). Also, Stardew Valley was the last game I’ve played. So, you’re right on spot.

    I was searching for something more story driven and with a more mature community, so I think I’ll check the Fallout series. My CPU is a i7-10510U. I don’t know if there are open world games with turn-based combat, but that would be like the soft-spot for me. Also, community is very important, because I feel that, at my age, I just want to connect with nice people who casually have a same hobby. World is too fucked up to let ourselves vanish in the foam of the tide.

    A have a couple of friends who played WoW for many years and although I never got into it, their community sense was really cool. If I could find something not so tight in terms of scheduling your gameplay and with a nice community, I guess I would dedicate my time to it.
