  • It’s always a quiet month for me, as I’m not in a hospitable area for the community. But it’s wonderful to see the photos and videos of people coming together anyway around the world, despite the scary times we’re in right now. I think times like these are when we need pride celebrations the most.

    Yeah we already went through this exact thing with Masto and Twitter. The complaining about defed is particularly annoying to me, like… defederation is a feature of the fediverse, not a bug, lol… Hopefully the “this doesn’t work exactly like MyFavoriteSite” folks will clear out eventually like the last wave.












  • I imagine you can count on one hand the people who have Dragon Age 2 as their favorite video game ever of all time, but I’m one of them.

    My previous #1 was Chrono Trigger. Other ones that are way up there are Final Fantasy VI, Phantasy Star IV, Phoenix Wright original trilogy, Guild Wars 2, Star Wars: The Old Republic, Hakuouki original (not the remakes) and Reimeiroku, Uta no Prince-sama Repeat, Quest for Glory 1-4, Suikoden 1-3…


  • I’ve had a Flip 3 for about a year and I honestly love the phone, but more for the style/fun factor of the flip over the actual usefulness. I was a huge fan of flip phones in the feature phone era and hated having to switch to candybar, lol, so I had to give it a try!

    Pros for me:

    • Looks very cool, flip phone nostalgia value
    • I have some mobility problems and being able to set the phone on a table to use it as opposed to having the weight stressing my hands is nice
    • Great for reading ebooks in a 2-page view
    • Can see notifs, quick check music, dismiss alarms etc without opening
    • Fits great in small pockets

    Cons:

    • This particular model is so ridiculously slidey on the outside that it won’t even stay still on a level table so a case is 100% required, but hopefully other foldables will avoid this lol
    • Relatedly, not exactly a big case variety for this style of phone
    • worry of “what if the screen cracks” hanging over my head

    It’s been a fun purchase, but I’m not completely sold on the necessity or usefulness yet. If my screen is still okay by the time I’m ready for a new phone in a couple more years then I’ll call it a good purchase. So far I haven’t had any problems or signs of issues at the folding point, hopefully the trend continues, but I do make a point to leave the phone open most of the time when I don’t specifically need the folding functions.
