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’m not familiar with a lot of the stuff you just explained :) so I’ll just compliment you on the great work! It looks great.

Yeah, I guess you’re right.

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.

Great Post, really inspiring. But I’m mesmerised by the design. How did you achieve this? Is it a template or did you built it from scratch? I’m returning to blog after leaving ten years ago and this is exactly the kind of look I was looking for. Congratulations.

It’s going pretty good because I think I’m finally making some progress towards being more focused. Although I need to confess that was pretty thrilled with the onboarding on lemmy and checked it a lot during the weekend.

Apart from that I’m cutting ties with general stuff and news and focusing on: books (reading The Stranger right now), one single magazine about current issues in the world, hearing good music and starting to play an old RPG after great advice I received on c/gaming. I’ll workout after work and then start a campaign.

Cool. Probably because of saving also, right? Since it’s a game you can play for a long time…

Thanks. Do people play Dwarf Fortress Classic or the Steam version more?

I didn’t knew the game and a couple of replies mentioned it. Must say that it looks like something extremely fun and addicting but also very daunting!

Just saved your comment and will use it as a guide. Like your say seems a bit daunting to role play in servers but honestly, in these times, it might as well be what I’m needing in my life. Thanks once again.

Love it! Already finished it (not exactly 100% perfection, but… the story is complete)

Oh I played Undertale. Most recently in an ambernic handheld and it was great!!! Didn’t know it has a community!

Will check it. Thanks!!

Minecraft is not my type of game but Stardew Valley is and I finished it :) (not 100% perfection though)

I have Neverwinter Nights in my Steam library I now feel very tempted to finally start playing it! Do you happen to know where the community gathers?

Thank you very much for your input.

Hey thank you very much! Didn’t knew that could make multiple choices. It’s not obvious at all. Now I ctrl+ choosed english, undetermined and my native language and can see everything! Thank you very much for your support.

Thanks. I’ve checked and undetermined is enabled.

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.

I’m reading The Stranger, by Albert Camus. It’s a short read and I’m already focusing on some of The Atlantic’s recommendations in the Summer Reading Guide.
