It’s probably because the algorithm was tuned for a smaller community. As soon as posts got hundreds of comments it likely made things stay at the top for a very long time. Definitely something that will get tuned over time.

I think Active could use a little bit of tweaking though, it seems like some posts last too long and obscures newer posts.

That’s awesome! Really hope we can abandon x86 altogether some day.

Brent’s desk is actually the microservice holding everything together. Don’t shake the cables when you sit down or you’ll risk crashing the whole website.

Makes literally no sense to me that Reddit couldn’t afford to provide a price exception to 3rd party apps that have helped grow their community and website over the years. I’ve been using Reddit Is Fun for almost a decade now, and I’m not switching to their official app.

Companies are getting too comfortable when they have no competition. Really hope a Fediverse alternative will kick off like Mastodon did (ironically I’m placing my bets on kbin even though I use Lemmy. Seems like the simpler alternative that’ll be easier to invite people over).

This sound like you don’t play games very much because that’s not the case, at all. Not everyone has unlimited data caps and fast internet, and those that do would still rather play games locally than suffer input lag and video artifacts. With consoles and PCs being as powerful as ever and still affordable I don’t think the cloud gaming market will ever be mainstream.

The game looks great but I’m worried the enemies might be too spongy. Every fight shown in many gameplay videos is just the player wailing in a big slow enemy for 2-3 minutes until they die.

Ah well it’ll be a million years until it gets ported to PC anyways. Still hyped.

Helloooo. I can see the post but I dunno if you can set a title for it. Right now the title is “@asklemmy”

Will do.

Remnant From The Ashes is probably the best game this month but it’s already been given away on Epic a while ago.

There are a few PS4 emulators but all of them are in pre-alpha and barely boot any games. So not any time soon.

Maybe it’s just that it’s familiar, but Zorin OS has always had the most “it just works” GUI to me. It’s clean, stable, and provides many sensible presets if you prefer windows environments, mac environments, old school gnome, etc.

Aside from being very pretty it also has great UX and linux beginner onboarding features. For example if you try to open an exe file for the first time, it explains that this is a Windows-specific file and sets up Wine for you.

A lot of people recommend Fedora and PopOS for people getting into Linux but honestly Zorin Core has always been my #1.
