first of all, there appears to be a fork of Cantata (which is still my music player of choice as well) that is still getting updates (maintained by a one nullobsi), if you’re on Arch, it’s available on the AUR as cantata-qt6
my current fallback option for local music playback is fooyin, I don’t know for certain whether it checks all of your boxes at the moment, but it is still very much in active development
I also use jellyfinmediaplayer for music on my jellyfin server, but that doesn’t have lyric support (unfortunately)

From what I’ve heard there is a new game that is in the very early stages of development

I flunked my gender test so hard that I ended up getting an F

Asexual =/= aromantic. Your character can be asexual and still be romantically attracted to people

I’m personally fond of Sway and Kitty

You’re weclome!

I still love my Pebble smartwatches, and of them I prefer the Pebble Time Steel. It still lasts like at least a week on a single charge.

Conglaturations on the new job!

I started out with BaconReader, then I moved over to Sync, then when Sync development slowed down I moved over to Infinity

I definitely like EuroBeat, it’s not my favorite genre of music, but it is quite good

yep, you got it! Nice to see that there’s more than just one fan of Iconoclasts out here in the Fediverse!

Nope, not Ratchet & Clank, but those are good games too

I’m currently using TimeShift to backup my desktop onto an external hard drive (the why is because of how simple it is to use) and I’ll be making a copy of anything I upload to my jellyfin server onto the external hard drive as well. I hope to eventually have a dedicated backup server and have a duplicate of it at a friend’s house for offside backup too

I buy my music on BandCamp when I can and physical when I can. I prefer to buy albums on CD, other than Dungeon Synth music (which I prefer to buy on cassette for the sake of consistency). I do also own a number of albums on vinyl and/or cassette, most of the time because it is the only format I can get a physical copy in. I keep digital copies of all my music both on my desktop and on my jellyfin server.

Personally, I still prefer PragmataPro (tho I do admit it is a very expensive font), but this does look pretty good

As far as artists who primarily make synthwave:
Dance With The Dead, FM-84, Gunship, Lazerhawk, Magic Sword, and Miami Nights 1984
I’m also a big fan of Erang (he mostly makes Dungeon Synth music, but he’s got a couple of synthwave albums, namely Anti Future and Songs of Scars

Lemmy is not my first time on the fediverse, nor is this my first time on Lemmy. I got my start with Mastodon a few years ago and slowly lost interest. A few months ago I found out about CalcKey and joined an instance of that. Now with the reddit situation I have ended up also joining the Lemmy server run by the same people who run the CalcKey instance I’m on (I’ve got the same username on both CalcKey and here on Lemmy)

I mostly use Arch Linux, as the customizability and package selection is excellent.
On the rare occasion I need to use a piece of software that doesn’t play nicely with Linux (even with Wine/Proton), I boot up onto a secondary drive that has Windows 10 installed on it.
