Is Matrix a self-hosted alternative to Discord? I’ve been looking for one but the closest I can find is RocketChat, which is meant more for corporate environments. I’m going to be launching a radio station for Lemmy soon and I need a suitable solution for chat platform that I can integrate with my website (and eventually app).
- Comment on Consumer hardware is no longer a priority for manufacturers 1 day ago:
Tell me about it. I also paid about the same for a 1070 back in 2016 and it lasted me all the way until 2022, when I finally decided to be a sucker and pony up the $1800 for a 4090 at launch. Which as insane as that is, I’m glad I did because now 4090s go for about $3K ***used! ***
If you didn’t buy a new GPU by mid 2023, you’re pretty much stuck with what you have for the foreseeable future, given how insane prices are now with no signs of slowing down.

Excellent; thanks for the heads up. I’ll avoid the drama and pirate any component that requires a licensing fee.

Yeah and I’m asking too to please don’t lol
- Comment on Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models 2 days ago:
I will when someone makes a GPU that can surpass a 4090. Not even Nvidia themselves can pull that off, so I’m not getting my hopes up. I’m going to me stuck with this GPU for the next decade the way things are going (not that I’m complaining. It’s a beast of a card, especially coming from someone who could only ever afford bargain bin parts until one day I came into a windfall. That was a fun 4 years.

Mullvad is safe. They were raided and the authorities got nothing.

Leave it in HDR next time. As someone who owns an HDR monitor and a phone with an HDR display, there is simply not enough content out there outside of movies and games.

IDK I was able to remap it just fine using Power Toys.

Which emulator fixes the wobbling and upscale the textures again? The games I’ve seen in that emulator look great, nearly as good as PS2 games.
- Comment on Consumer hardware is no longer a priority for manufacturers 4 days ago:
I hope you’re right because Intel and AMD still can’t compete with high end Nvidia cards, and that’s how we ended up with a $5000 5090.

It’s literally the same thing

My entire job depends on such an app, so this is a bit of a relief.

Couldn’t agree more. But such is life.
- Comment on Stop using MySQL in 2026, it is not true open source 4 weeks ago:
I’m sorry I don’t follow this company’s actions as closely as you do. I can’t even remember the last time I used Oracle-branded software.
- Comment on Let's end Anti-Circumvention. We should own the things we buy! 4 weeks ago:
At first I thought the title said, “Let’s end Anti-circumcision”. I was like, “why?”.

Oh so it’s a greed thing, but not quite a Nestlé level of evil thing, then. Meh.
- Comment on ICE Wants to Go After Dissenters as well as Immigrants 4 weeks ago:
Nah, most people in the US have no idea any of this is going on. For the vast majority of Americans, their daily lives have not been affected at all. None of my coworkers are talking about ICE. Personally I haven’t since a single ICE officer since. They only go after the “liberal” states. Purple and Red states are being left alone for the time being.
- Comment on Why does everyone here think they're autistic or ADHD? The memes all describe normal human foibles. 4 weeks ago:
Agreed. We congregate on platforms like this because we’re too weird for the normies in the real world.
- Comment on AI-Induced RAM Crunch Could Push Next PlayStation and Xbox Past 2028 5 weeks ago:
At this point I’m pretending that the game hasn’t even been announced yet.
I admit I bought an XBOX 360 for GTA V so I wouldn’t have to wait for PC, but TBF you could get a used 360 for about $60 because the next gen was just around the corner. I’m not seeing any PS5s selling for sntjerre near that cheap, so I won’t be playing GTA VI until it releases on PC this time around.
- Comment on How Are You Guys Handling This? 5 weeks ago:
Wasn’t Game Pass like $6/mo on PC not too long ago? Who’s paying $20 for this crap? The game selection isn’t even that good.
- Comment on Windows 11’s 2025 problems are getting impossible to ignore 5 weeks ago:
Agreed. I really enjoy Windows 11’s HDR implementation. Never has it been more simple to get HDR working properly.
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 weeks ago:
Because I don’t want to stand up with shit still sticking to my cheeks. I flush immediately to minimize the smell.
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 weeks ago:
People who haven’t seen that video of a toilet flushing under just the right lighting, where you can see the water splattering everywhere.
It’s the reason why I always hop in the shower and wash my ass with soap after a shit, cause not even a bidet will clean up that mess. Ever wonder why your ass cheeks feel wet after a multi-flusher? Cause they are.

What I want to. Know more is how do we produce do much porn? How have we not run out of women willing to do it yet?

- Comment on Netflix acquires gaming avatar maker Ready Player Me 1 month ago:
Last game I played that let you use your own face was Tony Hawk’s Underground (either 1 or 2, don’t remember). That was about 20 years ago at this point. I’m surprised that more games don’t have this feature, especially in the era of modern smartphones that can do a 3D scan of your face.
