Just a dude doing internet things
That makes a lot of sense when you put it that way. For some reason I never factored that individuals were extending apps for their own use cases lmao
I feel like Linux alternatives often falter by trying to offer as extensive of a feature set as the proprietary options. GIMP would be better if it simplified it’s menu’s and focused on offering a strong central feature set, then expand on that core over time to offer a powerful workflow of it’s own.
I noticed this especially with FreeCAD, which is trying to do like 12 things for some reason? Just offer intuitive parametric cad and focus on it. We don’t need OpenSCAD inside FreeCAD because OpenSCAD is already it’s own thing for example.
Would not mind at all if consoles got lumped in and forced to allow alternative app stores
You even see this with games that were insanely cash grabby from ten or so years ago. Borderlands 2 made you pay for every level cap increase and tiny piece of updated content as it rolled out. The handsome collection fixed that, but it’s still true that it really tried to toll you at every corner. Game is still highly regarded though.
The thing that kept me attached to VR was Echo. Guess what they did to one of my literal favorite games
I wonder if self hosted fediverse stuff could gain a bit of traction 🤷
Something I think is interesting is that, in order for companies to adopt these better non ad reliant models, they would have to dramatically scale down.
In a climate where ad and clicks = revenue, your solution is to scale as large as you can and pump out content to maximize views. But that wouldn’t work under normal models
I didn’t quite figure out the issue. It seemed to be a problem with directx, and I wasn’t certain how to proceed. I chose to uninstall the nvidia drivers and proceed, for the time, with integrated graphics on my Intel chip until NVK ships with fedora 40
Pixelfed is really interesting, and this sounds like a fun project!
The only problem major problem I have encountered with trying to use defederated social medias, outside of Lemmy, like it and mastadon has been the lack of discover ability. I guess I don’t know how to properly utilize the platforms, but I never find much that is particular to my interests
Good, use them for something worthwhile.
It is dystopian really the nature of shuffling hundreds or thousands of people to a building, into a cubicle, in front of a computer for 8 hours a day.
You know what? I agree with that.
I was taking my personal opinion and applying that at large, and forgot it was early access. A bit short sighted of me.
I hope the game has a bright future, even if it may not appeal to me.
Yeah, the game’s popularity comes directly from it’s gimmicky nature and not from any actual good gameplay loop. Not a single idea, mechanic, or even item is original.
I played for two days with friends and got over it. And I imagine for many, once the appeal of the gimmick wears thin, it’s all and over with
You could at least act ignorant rather than trying to logic your hatefulness
Yeah those are the steps I followed.
I have used bazzite before and it worked well, I just recently reinstalled fedora after using Windows for a month or so (Thought I would need it for class, but my teacher is okay with us doing our work on Linux so yay)
I will probably just rebase than
