• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Interesting to see how dead the MMO genre has become. Are there still players around?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I still play Old School RuneScape and Guild Wars 2, and they are both very active.

  However, I’ve not tried a new MMORPG in ages. I don’t even really know if any relatively new ones could be interesting to try out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Outer wilds: at what point should I give up?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Personally, I tried it a wee bit, but the game kept stressing me so much, which I really hate. It’s a shame because I keep hearing that it’s an incredible game… Maybe if I try it at another time I’ll have a different experience, I hope.

  Comments were more of a bonus that I enjoyed looking at after I watched an episode. You could sometimes find some very interesting comments.

  However, what they also removed is reviews. And I used that to choose what animes I was going to add to my watchlist. Without that, the website is pretty much useless, I rather watch them elsewhere if I have to use another website anyway to get the reviews.

  Indeed. Because of this change, I already cancelled the auto renew of my subscription and I started looking back at the high seas.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Crunchyroll Deletes and Disables Comments on Entire Platform, Including Episodes and News Articles⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a shame… Reading the comments after I watched an episode was part of the experience for me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could you stay in the roundabout indefinitely?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  During rush hour, it will definitely have an impact on the flow of traffic with most roundabouts, which are usually not very big (in France anyway).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t use it much, but I do appreciate the one I have on my phone, since I don’t always have my BT earbuds with me. Whereas I usually always have some cheap wired earbuds somewhere with me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The state of open source SMS messagers⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You don’t x)

  More seriously, in these cases, I often rely on emails instead. But I don’t really use group chats a lot (even with my contacts that are on Signal), nor send many files, so it’s not features I really miss.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which software do you mostly use for programming, and why?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Same here. I used to heavily use emacs, but when I changed job, it was much easier to simply use vscode instead of making emacs work properly in the new work environment.

  Maybe if I find some time, I may go back to emacs since I miss a few features from it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hypothesis: Insufficient moderation tools lead to instance protectionism, which leads to a decline in the overall discussion quality on Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Poorly advertised is an understatement, I never heard about this within Reddit xD I always thought that it was a third-party thing.

  It is indeed similar to the “Local” feed from Lemmy then. However, it doesn’t have the “I’m part of a common family” feeling that I see in an instance like jlai.lu where we know that all users from the instance see the same content.

  But TIL, thank you :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hypothesis: Insufficient moderation tools lead to instance protectionism, which leads to a decline in the overall discussion quality on Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, I feel like most of the “feed” issues are simply because users are in big instances where the “Local” feed indeed becomes meaningless.

  Something that would however be cool would be a way to view the Local feed from another instance, without having to actually go to the other instance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hypothesis: Insufficient moderation tools lead to instance protectionism, which leads to a decline in the overall discussion quality on Lemmy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  To me, the Local feed is one of the biggest strengths of Lemmy. It allows having in the same platform a community/instance based feed (for example, Local in jlai.lu allows you to find most of the French activity in Lemmy), and at the same time, I can use “Subscribed” and/or “All” feeds to get a broader view of the Fediverse.

  Without the “Local” view, Lemmy would just feel like another Reddit clone to me, where French communities would just be flooded by English-speaking communities. On Reddit, the French community actually had to create a subreddit dedicated to listing all French subreddits, just because the discoverability of non-English-speaking subreddits is just awful by default on Reddit.

  And at the same time, I don’t see the need for “curation algorithms”. The “Subscribed” feed already fills this use case for me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a way to comment on peertube with a lemmy account?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You can force a video to appear in Lemmy by copying the original peertube URL of the video into lemmy’s search.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your favorite Lemmy instances?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  jlai.lu because it allows to simply use the “Local” feed to browse most French related communities, while still being able to browse the rest of the Threadiverse using the “Subscribed” or “All” feeds.

  To me, that’s a huge improvement to Reddit, where it allows language-based and topic-based communities to have dedicated places which are easier to explore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to use Microsoft Teams Privately?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Indeed. I always connect as a guest through the browser. Never had any issues.
