@cheese_greater @asklemmy I’m a sucker for blueberries - they’re currently in season. Either on their own or in something.

@otter @asklemmy Currently playing Batman Arkham Asylum which last had a save ~2009. Not a superhero fan really but the team who made this were on fire. It’s so well crafted, the design decisions and direction, very enjoyable.

@Platform27@lemmy.ml @mayflower@lemmy.ml Those are some excellent choices. I’d pick quake for multiplayer - and SS2 for single. Honorable mention to Dune 2.

@useless_modern_god@aussie.zone @alternativenation@lemmy.world This might be the most classic Fu Manchu track there is [Maximum amounts of cowbell] Have only thrashed the version off Eatin Dust, would be interested to see if this is any different.

@ada@lemmy.blahaj.zone @fediverse@lemmy.ml When facebook,twitter etc ruled the roost, it would have been hard to believe that you could have all these different services talking to each other, but here I am talking to your lemmy instance from my pleroma one.

Speaking of groups, it will be good to see mastodon/pixelfed get groups, but to my mind group-based communities are a different beast than microblogging, that deserve their own space, but still connect to everything.

@maegul@lemmy.ml @lemmy@lemmy.ml That sounds like a filter on the communities page for new / most recently created.

@aka_oscar@beehaw.org @lemmy@lemmy.ml Yes - https://mander.xyz is a good example of this (Nature Instance). A few generalist servers are ok as entry points but how does lemmy.one,lemmy.world,lemmy.click differentiate from one another and not just dilute or cannibalise content? Why should beehaw.org spin up a gardening community when https://mander.xyz/c/gardening exists? I would have thought funnelling users there would help spread the load on the network would have been a useful approach, because ultimately that is the advantage of federation.

@Helix@feddit.de @gaming@lemmy.ml Love it. The technical skill of the doom map building, the way the content was released, narrative etc. Sometimes I <3 the internet for enabling things like this.

@koncertejo@lemmy.ml @asklemmy@lemmy.ml I use it because I prefer shared spaces to posting solo.on the Fedi. Reddits just slowly moving through the cycle locking things down bit by bit, not interested in contributing there.

@cyclohexane@lemmy.ml @fediverse@lemmy.ml IMO Topical #lemmy instances work best, it helps provide an identity and focus. Visitors to the instance see a local timeline of like minded posts, like minded communities e.g https://mander.xyz/ (Nature/Sci).

There’s simply not the same tension with feeling the need to post relevant content to a local timeline as there is with Mastodon, because you are sharing directly to communities on connected instances as well.

And because of the connected nature, instances can be small e.g. a knitting instance with only 10 users, connecting to a motorsport instance connected to lemmy main.
