🤣 Thats pretty funny.
- Comment on Screw it, I’m installing Linux 1 day ago:
The most successful Linux distros are ones that normal people are not aware they use at all. Most people dont install operating systems, they just use whatever comes with the device. To them its an appliance.
Android is a flavor of Linux and is widely successful.
Ive seen libraries use Linux and a browser and the machines worked for decades.
And there are quite a few Amazon tablets, ebook readers, etc… all using linux.Theres a never ending number of examples out there.

- Comment on Cloudflare is down this morning 2 days ago:
Starbucks payments sure did.
Mostly at work. All our stuff was on Azure, so when it went down….I kinda just stood around for the day. It was up/down the entire day. So I went for a coffee lol.
- Comment on Cloudflare is down this morning 2 days ago:
Cache-ing is a hard problem to solve. For MANY years cloudflare was the cheapest and easiest way to solve the issue.
But the same people that started cloudflare have moved on or passed away. Now its just another corp. So yeah we are going to get downtime. In the corporate world, its the standard so no one is going to move off it.
…unless it keeps going down consistently.
For those who are in the know, does memcache work with lemmy/piefed? What is a good Cache for modern day systems?
- Comment on Cloudflare is down this morning 2 days ago:
So far this year its been:
1. AWS was massively down
2. Azure was down a week later
3. Cloudflare down multiple times this yearThats the ones that affect stuff at work. Fun times.

Fantastic game. I’ve been playing. Its fun.
- Comment on I think the fediverse needs Android like hardware packaging 6 days ago:
Most of the fediverse is supported via yunohost so in theory you can just give out: https://doc.yunohost.org/en/admin/get_started/install_on/
Any of these at all. I have a couple of services on it and its as easy as click install.
I think the easiest way to get people on the platform is to just have them sign up on a server (like lemmy/piefed/kbin/etc..etc…) and just let them have at it.

It sounds like the fediverse may not be where you want to be.
I hope you have a great time on another platform. Good bye.

!coolwebsites@lemmy.ca
That is fairly unique to the fediverse.If you would like to watch something we have https://piefed.social/f/fediversevideos which is connected to a huge collection of peertube videos.
And !wholesome@reddthat.com has some great content.
Each one of these communities have some great moderators, an awesome community, and fairly unique to the fediverse. Each one comes from 3 separate instances that have done a fantastic job keeping everything running.
Theres good in the fedi. Im having a great time. Go out there and explore. Lots of great communities and people!

“installing” mods? What do you mean?
You can start your own instance right now, throw a community together, invite people over and have a grand old time. In fact, thats how it all is.
Lemmy.world is an awesome instance, but maybe try a couple of instances and see what you like. Its ok to “shop” around per-say. Have fun and enjoy the fedi!

You still have to register…
Its not a good solution to installing programs on something you own.
- Comment on Steam Machine is huge for indie development 1 week ago:
Its so easy to develop for the steam deck and steam devices. Just FYI it really is just another machine. Theres no “unlocking” or “side loading” or anything. Its just a computer. Thats it!
- Comment on Steam Hardware [new Steam Controller, Steam Machine, and VR headset Steam Frame, coming in 2026] 1 week ago:
Love it!
- I personally don’t care for the controller, but I will say that if I didnt have a steam deck with the track pads already, I would probably get one.
- The Steam frame looks interesting. Ill keep an eye out. It might be cheaper than a huge big screen. But IDK. VR always feels like a gimmick.
- The Steam machine looks awesome. Ill probably get one. I like PCs that happen to be consoles cause I can rip them apart and upgrade/fix as I please.
I really hope Steam OS comes out for more than just 2 devices though. That would be AWESOME.
Big picture mode is great but certain games + controller + hardware combos still have issues with it. Whereas the steam deck has a fantastic time hooking into things. - Comment on Air Tag Alternative 1 week ago:

- Comment on Gamepad for Linux Gaming? 1 week ago:
I’ve had good luck with generic Logitech and ps4 controllers, at least on steam + Linux.
- Comment on To the rapidly aging person reading this: GameFAQs is 30 years old, and people are sharing their memories of the venerable guide hub 1 week ago:
I remember the game grumps did a walkthrough of some sonic game and they were going through some guys 10+ year walkthrough that was really well done. It was hilarious some of the comments the walkthrough person wrote.

One of the reasons we all switched. A public modlist is so nice over here. At least we get reasons.
- Comment on We Surveyed 2,158 Self-Hosters: Here's What Keeps Us Hosting 1 week ago:
I’ve broken my Lemmy system a couple of times. Yunohost and Lemmy do not go well together. Went to docker and its slow but dependable. I like playing around with it but how do people keep up with Lemmy.works? It just slams my network.
- Comment on The problem of cross-community posting 1 week ago:
I don’t want it to be combined. Different communities have VERY different conversations on the same content.
- Comment on The problem of cross-community posting 1 week ago:
Its very nice and allows you to post on the original post, the cross posted post, and all other places. Its truely federated.

I think in order fpe this to succeed they are going to NEED good games. No really that’s what people care about.
